Spirit. And she will bring forth a Son, and you
shall call His name JESUS, for He will save His
people from their sins” (Matthew 1:18-21).
Jesus came into the world to fulfil a number of divine
objectives:
1. To please the Heavenly Father.
2. To live a life of obedience to the living God.
3. To be the Pattern through whom the Father would
show the world how to live in the world and please the
heavenly Father.
4. To redeem humanity from their sins.
5. To reconcile humanity into relationship with the
Father, and
6. To restore man to the place of divine authority and
dominion on earth.
A careful study of the life of Jesus shows that all He did on
earth were within these divine job descriptions. Jesus did
not just come to teach, heal, cast out demons, do miracles
and raise the dead. In the course of fulfilling His divine
destiny these supernatural operations came into play.
Miracles, signs and wonders are nothing if they do not align
with divine purpose. In other words, the supernatural is
not given to validate our ministries, but simply to glorify
God.
