It is very important that we learn of the Lord God's original intent for planet earth. Understanding intent gives us "the big picture". If we see or hear only a small part of the whole, we will not understand and draw an incorrect conclusion. The Lord God has a purpose for everything that He does. Al of us who are citizens of His Kingdom are a part of His overall plan, but often all we can see is the tiny portion that involves us at any given moment. Regularly referring to God's Constitution (the Bible--God's guidebook for life in His Kingdom) will inform us of His intent. This will, in turn, help us keep the big picture before us.
Intent is also the most critical component of motivation. It is the source of motivation and the reason why someone does something or creates something. Unless specifically stated, intent is usually hidden. For example, A master artist rarely states their intent plainly. They allow their art to speak for itself. Those who take the time and effort to examine and search it out, the intent behind an artist's work can be discerned from the painting itself. No other explanation would be necessary.
As I have stated before, if intent is unknown, then misunderstanding is inevitable. Misunderstanding the intent will guarantee a waste of time, talent, energy, gifts and resources. Unless we know what the Lord God intended, keep in mind, most religious focus on trying to get God's attention, which is the wrong approach. We already have God's attention. Now, fortunately for us, the Lord God has not hidden His intent away in some obscure manner the way an artist might in his painting. Instead, He has revealed Himself and His intent through His creation. This is what I call, Revelation Knowledge. Read what King David stated in God's Constitution: The heavens declare the glory of God; and the firmament shows His handiwork.
The Lord God's original intent was to populate the earth with mankind, who then would rule and dominate the planet for Him and in His name. It was that simple.
