And Moses said unto the people, Fear ye not, stand still, and see the salvation of the LORD, which he will shew to you to day: for the Egyptians whom ye have seen to day, ye shall see them again no more for ever (Exodus 14:13 KJV).
The purpose of our life is to see the glory of God in the wonderful salvation He has ordained / provided for us. We see how God provide for us in unexpected ways. We can prove that all things work for our good (Romans 8:28) and glorify God.
When Abraham was called upon to sacrifice Isaac (Genesis 22), Abraham had faith that Isaac will be sacrificed but will not die (Hebrews 11:19). But Abraham had no idea how that could be done. He was probably expecting a miracle. God provided a ram to replace Isaac, signifying the greater provision that He will made by providing Christ as our substitute.
The Anthropic Principle says that the universe exist so that we can observe it. "For since the creation of the world His invisible attributes, His eternal power and divine nature, have been clearly seen, being understood through what has been made, so that they are without excuse. Romans 1:20 NASB" We observe the universe and see the Glory of God in its design. "The heavens declare the glory of God; and the firmament sheweth his handywork. Psalm 19:1 KJV"
We also can observe God's work in our own life and see God's wonderful provision for us. We exist to glorify God (Isaiah 43:7, Isaiah 43:21, Ephesians 1:5-6).
