Ephesians 2:10 NKJV<\/strong>\nFor we are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand that we should walk in them. <\/pre>\n\n\n\n
God created everyone of us with a purpose. Nobody came to the earth by mistake – we were known by God before the foundation of the earth. We came at the right time to the right place with the right equipment to do the will of God. God prepared those good works beforehand <\/em>that we should walk in them!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Ephesians 2:10 AMP<\/strong>\nFor we are God\u2019s [own] handiwork (His workmanship), recreated in Christ Jesus, [born anew] that we may do those good works which God predestined (planned beforehand) for us, (taking paths which He prepared ahead of time) that we should walk in them - living the good life which He pre-arranged and made ready for us to live. <\/pre>\n\n\n\n
