What do you want out of life? What is important to you now in life and what will it be in the future? What type of job would you like? How much money would you like to earn? When would you like to get married? How many children would you like? Where would you like to live?
1. Serving God
Josh 24:15
And if it seem evil unto you to serve the LORD, choose you this day whom ye will serve; whether the gods which your fathers served that were on the other side of the flood, or the gods of the Amorites, in whose land ye dwell: but as for me and my house, we will serve the LORD.
2. Seeking God’s Kingdom
Matthew 6:33
But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you.
3. Doing God’s Work
John 4:34
Jesus saith unto them, My meat is to do the will of him that sent me, and to finish his work.
The work can be found in Verse 35.
4. Glorifying God (honour)
John 17:4
I have glorified thee on the earth: I have finished the work which thou gavest me to do.
5. Pressing on toward Heaven
Phil 3:13-14
Brethren, I count not myself to have apprehended: but this one thing I do, forgetting those things which are behind, and reaching forth unto those things which are before, I press toward the mark for the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus.
What is the chief end of man? Man's chief end is to glorify God, and to enjoy him forever.
