The Opportunity You’ve Been Praying For | Pastor Bill Scheer

Ephesians 2:10 (ESV)
For we are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand that we should walk in them.

You’re Assigned

2 Corinthians 6:11–13 (MSG)
Dear, dear Corinthians, I can’t tell you how much I long for you to enter this wide-open, spacious life. We didn’t fence you in. The smallness you feel comes from within you. Your lives aren’t small, but you’re living them in a small way. I’m speaking as plainly as I can and with great affection. Open up your lives. Live openly and expansively!

1. You Were Chosen on Purpose

• God’s intention precedes your existence.

• You are designed, not accidental.

2. You Were Created for Purpose

• Your gifts are tied to your assignment.

• Purpose is discovered, not invented.

3. You Decide to Live It

• Your call requires a response.

• Passivity postpones purpose.

• Align your time with your purpose.

• Jesus lived with total clarity — every step was intentional.

• If you don’t define and establish your purpose, something or someone else will.
