Summer Series Marked By God

Everyone on this planet has been marked by God to do a work that is God given and God Assigned. We often determine our value and worth by the amount of money, the car, the house, how good we look in comparison to others but in reality we are marked by God for a purpose. The purpose of God for your life marks you for the assignment God has put you on the earth to do. You were born in this time in history, in the city and state that you are currently in because of the divine assignment that God has for you.
