How do we know that God has a purpose for our lives?
Answered in 2 sources
The Bible teaches that God has a specific purpose for each of His people, determined even before the foundation of the world.
Scripture affirms that God has a purpose for our lives, as articulated in 2 Timothy 1:9, which states that He 'has saved us and called us with a holy calling, not according to our works, but according to His own purpose and grace, which was given to us in Christ Jesus before the world began.' This highlights that our salvation and calling were ordained by God, unfolding His plan for us, rooted in grace. Understanding our identity in Christ and the grace afforded to us instills confidence that our lives are woven into His divine plan. The overarching narrative of redemption throughout the Bible confirms this truth, guiding believers to live in alignment with God’s intended purpose.
