WHY AM I HERE?

Why Am I Here?
Discovering Your True Purpose Through the Bible
Few questions are as universal—or as deeply personal—as this one:
Why am I here?
Across cultures, ages, and generations, people wrestle with this question. Some ask it quietly in moments of pain. Others ask it when success fails to satisfy. And many ask it when life feels confusing, unfair, or empty.
The Bible does not ignore this question. In fact, it answers it with clarity, hope, and purpose.
1. You Are Here Because God Created You Intentionally
According to Scripture, your existence is not an accident. You are not the result of chance, fate, or randomness.
“Before I formed you in the womb I knew you.”
— Jeremiah 1:5
God did not merely create humanity in general—He created you specifically. Your life began in the mind of God before it began in the world.
You are here because God willed you to be here.
2. You Are Here to Know God
At the heart of human purpose is relationship with God.
“This is eternal life: that they may know You, the only true God, and Jesus Christ whom You have sent.”
— John 17:3
Life’s deepest fulfillment does not come from achievements, possessions, or recognition. It comes from knowing the One who made you.
You are here not just to live—but to walk with God.
3. You Are Here to Reflect God’s Glory
The Bible teaches that humans were created to reflect God’s nature and character.
“So God created man in His own image.”
— Genesis 1:27
This means your life is meant to point beyond yourself. Through love, integrity, creativity, compassion, and faith, you reflect something of who God is to the world around you.
You are here to make God known by how you live.
4. You Are Here for a God-Given Assignment
Purpose is not only about identity—it is also about calling.
“We are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand.”
— Ephesians 2:10
God has placed you in a specific time, place, and context for a reason. Your gifts, experiences, and even your struggles are part of a larger plan.
You are here to serve God’s purposes in your generation.
5. You Are Here Even Though Life Includes Pain
Many people ask “Why am I here?” during suffering. The Bible does not deny pain—but it gives it meaning.
“In this world you will have trouble. But take heart! I have overcome the world.”
— John 16:33
Pain does not mean your life lacks purpose. Often, God uses pain to shape character, deepen faith, and prepare us to help others.
You are here not because life is easy—but because God is at work even in difficulty.
6. You Are Here to Choose Eternity
The Bible teaches that this life is not the end—it is preparation.
“What does it profit a man to gain the whole world, and yet lose his soul?”
— Mark 8:36
You are here to make the most important decision of all:
Will you live only for this world—or for eternity with God?
Through Jesus Christ, God offers forgiveness, reconciliation, and eternal life.
7. You Are Here Because God Is Not Finished With You
No matter your past, your mistakes, or your current struggles, your life still has value.
“He who began a good work in you will carry it on to completion.”
— Philippians 1:6
Your story is still being written.
Conclusion: So Why Are You Here?
According to the Bible, you are here because:
God created you intentionally
God desires a relationship with you
God calls you to reflect His glory
God has a purpose for your life
God offers you eternal hope through Jesus Christ
The question is not only “Why am I here?”
The deeper question is:
What will I do with the life God has given me?
“They that know their God shall be strong, and do exploits.”
— Daniel 11:32

WHAT THE BIBLE SAYS CONCERNING THE LIGHT John 8:12 Again Jesus spoke to them, saying, “I am the light of the world. Whoever follows me will not walk in darkness, but will have the light of life.” John 1:5 The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness has not overcome it. Matthew 5:16 In the same way, let your light shine before others, so that they may see your good works and give glory to your Father who is in heaven. 1 John 1:7 But if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus his Son cleanses us from all sin. Psalm 119:105 Your word is a lamp to my feet and a light to my path. Ephesians 5:8 For at one time you were darkness, but now you are light in the Lord. Walk as children of light Matthew 5:14 “You are the light of the world. A city set on a hill cannot be hidden. 1 Peter 2:9 But you are a chosen race, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a people for his own possession, that you may proclaim the excell...

TODAY"S SERMON....IS THERE NO BALM IN GILEAD? JEREMIAH 8:22

Is there no balm in Gilead? Is there no physician there? Why then is there no healing for the wound of my people? Jer 8:22 Many times THE SUPPOSED CHILDREN OF GOD DO NOT GET ANSWERS TO THEIR PRAYERS. I s it because God does not answer prayers? Or is it because of our dispositions.  What to do to live a fulfilled life is in the word of God. THINGS WE NEED TO EXPERIENCE THE BALM IN GILEAD. 1   .
