MAN WITH A PURPOSE 5

GREAT THINGS ARE DONE BY MEN WITH GOD'S PURPOSE IN THEIR HEART
 
Daniel 1:8 But Daniel purposed in his heart that he would not defile himself with the portion of the king's meat, nor with the wine which he drank: therefore he requested of the prince of the eunuchs that he might not defile himself.
 
Daniel did not just do right out of habit, though it is good to form the habit of doing right.  He made a decision to do the right thing and followed it through.
 
Daniel did not just decide to do right because it was convenient. He did it many times in spite of dire circumstances. 
 
When you study your Bible you find that great things were done for God by men who had a purpose given to them by God.  Surely the apostle Paul was a man of purpose as were the Old Testament Saints.
 
History and even current events show us how men with a purpose further the cause of God.  The pilgrims had a purpose to establish a place where they could worship freely.  The founding fathers of our nation had a purpose to guarantee that freedom to generations to come.  Missionaries and Pastors that are preaching the truth from pulpits around the world are men with a purpose.
 
Propose in your heart to serve God with all your strength and abilities.
