REV. AARON ADRIAN ADABO WELCOME SERVICE AT HOSANNA METHODIST CHURCH

God has a purpose for my coming. Hallelujah. God has a purpose for my coming. Hallelujah. There are moment in life, when we ask ourselves, why am I here? And why this particular time? And sometimes you cannot understand. Romans chapter 8, verse 28. And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love Him, who have been called according to His purpose. Hallelujah.God has a purpose for every life. 1.God has a purpose for every life. Jeremiah chapter 1, verse 5. Yes. The central question in this portion is not merely “What do I want to do for God?” but “What does God want me to accomplish for Him?” 2.God can use uncomfortable season for His purpose Romans 5:3& 4 3. God purpose requires obedience — Genesis 12:1 God told Abraham: “Get out of your country, from your family and from your father’s house, to a land that I will show you.” Abraham did not receive the whole map before he started walking. God gave the command, and Abraham had to obey. Sometimes God’s purpose for your ministry and life begins with one simple instruction: “Go.” “Stay.” “Wait.” “Serve.” “Speak.” “Forgive.” “Prepare.” We may want God to explain everything first, but obedience often comes before full understanding. 4. God purpose involves all Paul says: “We also glory in tribulations, knowing that tribulation produces perseverance; and perseverance, character; and character, hope.” This means that even difficulties can become part of God's preparation. Tribulation → Perseverance → Character → Hope. Therefore, don't conclude that because something is difficult, God has abandoned you. God can use the difficulty to develop the person who will carry the purpose. 5. God wants His people to accomplish His work So the question becomes: What does God want from me as a minister? He wants more than preaching sermons. He wants a life that reflects Christ—faithfulness, holiness, compassion, obedience, service and love. What does God want from church leaders? He wants leaders who shepherd His people faithfully, not merely leaders who occupy positions. What does God want from church members? He wants disciples who worship Him, obey His Word, serve others, use their gifts and become witnesses for Christ. What does God want from us as individuals? He wants us to discover our place in His kingdom and faithfully fulfill the assignment He has given us. The big question We can therefore ask ourselves: “Lord, what do You want me to accomplish for Your kingdom?” Not: “What will make me famous?” Not: “What will make people recognize me?” Not: “What position can I obtain?” But: “Lord, what have You placed me on earth to accomplish for You?” And when we discover it, our prayer should become: “Lord, give me the grace to obey You, the strength to persevere, the wisdom to serve faithfully, and the courage to complete the assignment You have given me.” Because God's purpose requires our obedience. 🙏🏾
