Giving Birth to Your Purpose

By Daren F. Phillips

Every invention comes with an assignment. In the mind of the Inventor he or she designs the thing that was created, to accomplish a particular purpose. And so it is with the Father of inventors “God” who in His infinite wisdom designed man with great purposes in mind. Just as He uniquely designed our fingerprints, He has also designed an individual and distinctive purpose for our lives. Do you know what that plan and purpose is?

This book was written with the intention of you connecting with that purpose and how to give BIRTH to it. It is my prayer that the information enclosed propels you to the place of unlocking and fulfilling God’s divine purpose for your life.

Introduction

It’s with great anticipation that I am writing this book.  It was from my childhood that it seemed as if the dreams and visions I had were already accomplished. 

As I played them out in my mind, it was as though they were already accomplished, as though I was living them.  But if the truth be told, I was nowhere near them. 

After sharing those dreams with others, I began to believe the dream-killer opinions that I wasn’t old enough, wise enough, wasn’t in the right family, etc. to fulfill those dreams.  And now having had my many dreams and visions shattered, I decided that I would be an ordinary person.  Living by how people viewed me, I was living a life that was mapped out for me by others.

But when I came to know Christ I found out that God made and designed me with a particular purpose in mind.  You see, I am unique — there is no other person on the Earth like me.  And with this uniqueness comes the truth that there is a purpose, a vision, a task that has been set aside just for me to do in the Earth. 

And the only way I can know this vision is by connecting to the One who gives vision:  God.

This book is written with the intent to encourage those who believe they have no purpose, that life is meaningless, who can’t see the end of the tunnel, maybe having had their dreams crushed.  I believe the principles you are about to read will help you to connect to the One who gives Dreams, Vision, Babies — no other but God.  And having connected (had intimacy), you would become pregnant and give birth to your purpose.

Come on, let’s get Pregnant!

Intimacy

From the very beginning Man was designed to have intimacy both naturally and spiritually.

Naturally:

And Adam gave names to all cattle, and to the fowl of the air, and to every beast of the field; but for Adam there was not found an help meet for him. 21 And the LORD God caused a deep sleep to fall upon Adam, and he slept: and he took one of his ribs, and closed up the flesh instead thereof; 22 And the rib, which the LORD God had taken from man, made he a woman, and brought her unto the man.

Genesis 2:20-22 (Emphasis mine)

Spiritually:

And they heard the voice of Jehovah God walking in the garden in the cool of the day: and the man and his wife hid themselves from the presence of Jehovah God amongst the trees of the garden.

Genesis 3:8 (Emphasis mine)

This verse helps us to see God’s interaction, His fellowship, His
