John Bevere addresses how Christians can discover their purpose by surrendering their own plans and building their lives with eternal, rather than temporary, intentions.

Bevere's key takeaways include: 

God determines the purpose of your life
Bevere emphasizes that God has a custom plan for each person's life, created before they were born. 

The book of your life: Each person has a book detailing their works and purpose. At the believers' judgment, this book will compare how they lived with God's original plan.
Surrender your agenda: To find your calling, set aside your own plans. Instead of asking God to bless your plans, ask, "What are you calling me to do right here and now?". 
Your motive and intention are more important than your actions
Believers will be judged not for their sins (which are forgiven), but for their works, words, thoughts, and motives. 
Build with eternal materials: We can build lives with temporal or eternal materials. What is built with self-centered motives will be destroyed by trials, while what is built with Christ-centered motives will be purified.

Judgment determines rewards: This judgment will determine if believers receive eternal rewards or suffer loss. Rewards can include reigning with Christ, and losses can mean that all of your life's works are burned up. 

Life's trials can help shape your calling
God uses life experiences, including hardships, to equip and mold you for your purpose. 
Trials become triumphs: The experiences you want to forget can be God's most powerful tools. When you lean on God during these moments, you can be victorious, and God is glorified.
Holy fear and obedience: A holy fear of God allows believers to live obediently and say no to sin. This motivates repentance and keeps people close to Jesus, allowing them to better walk in his purpose. 

The foundation of your calling is knowing who you are in Christ
Effectiveness in your calling is rooted in your identity in Christ. 
See yourself as God does: See yourself through God's eyes to understand and unleash your God-given uniqueness. Your true identity is the foundation for understanding your purpose.
Embrace your true identity: Overcoming obstacles like comparison allows you to fully embrace the person God created you to be.
