What work did He give me to do? What work did He give you to do? Well, in the world of Caesar, I have been a dancer, I’ve run an elevator for Macy’s, I’ve filled bins for J. C. Penney; I did all kinds of things. And, then, in 1938 I started telling this story, and I haven’t stopped since then, but before 1938 I had many jobs. But they are unimportant – it doesn’t really matter. The only thing that man has come to do, and must accomplish, is to fulfill the Word of God. And don’t be concerned – you are going to fulfill it, for the simple reason, God fulfills it in you. He has completed it, and He’s buried in you. The whole thing is brought to a climax already. It’s assured. You cannot fail. No one, in eternity, can fail, because it already has been brought to its climax, and it’s finished. “I have accomplished the work Thou gavest me to do.” Now, the One who made that proclamation is buried in us. He is the Pattern Man buried in every man, and that pattern will unfold in man, and everyone will be the Lord Jesus Christ. And the Lord Jesus Christ is God the Father!
The true 'work' humanity is given to do is not worldly labor but the fulfillment of the Word of God. This fulfillment is assured because God Himself, as the 'Pattern Man,' is already buried within every individual, and this divine pattern will inevitably unfold, revealing each person as the Lord Jesus Christ, who is God the Father. This work is already completed and cannot fail.
