Lesson 1: Created With Purpose

WEEK 1 — ASSIGNMENTS

Assignments support your discipleship as you move through each lesson. They include practices such as Scripture memorization, journaling, reflection, prayer, and guided activities to help you engage with God’s Word and apply what you are learning. The list is intentionally comprehensive, but you are not expected to complete everything. Prayerfully choose what fits your schedule.

As a guideline, aim to complete at least one section or two to three activities from different areas but also ensure you memorize Scripture as you move through the lessons. Daily prayer and reading the Word of God remain essential foundations for spiritual growth. These assignments are meant to support those practices by encouraging reflection, obedience, and spiritual awareness as you continue through the course.

11. Closing Declaration

“I am God’s workmanship. I was created with purpose. I will walk in what He has prepared for me.”

12. Closing Reminder

Identity is not proven by perfection but practiced through obedience. As you walk with God, He will continue shaping, healing, and directing your life.
