Man need God for everything, while God does not need man for anything. The purpose of creating man in the beginning after creating everything like earth, water, animal and was that, He created man is his own image and likeness (Gensis 1:26-27),He created man to share dominion or rule with him over creation. Genesis 1:28.
Man destiny is part of the family of God, it is God desire that no human beings perish but that all come to repentance so as to become members of his family as son's and daughter in his kingdom. God created Adam and Eve to live a happy life on the earth and take good care of the things he created. God endowed man with measure of his own quantities. One good thing about the purpose of man creation was that God gave them dominion over everything in the world.
God also gave our first parents the opportunity to live forever in paradise, where they could spend an eternity getting to know him and his work. God purpose for the earth is the earth is really wonderful, he wanted man to be happy and also have health people. God gave man the garden of Eden qnd all the fruits,tres where good. He put man in his loving home and told them to be fruitful and become many, fill the earth and subdue it. Genesis 1:28, Genesis 2:8,9:15.
God purpose of man is that man should extend the boundaries of that garden home and take care of the animal. If you can go back to the beginning, you find that God telling men to be fruitful and multiply, fill and subdue it. God want man to be fruitful, which means having children and producing love, joy, peace, long-suffering, gentleness and self control. God also man to have dominion over Satan. He want to represent him on earth and also subdue the devil. God gave man the authority to be able the people and liberate them from the forces that will destroy them. God purpose for creating man is for man to be steward of God's creation to grow in God and to function as God's sons and daughters. God love man and we as man should reciprocate the love too. God created man in his own image, man was given the ability to respond to God's love or reject it. In the beginning man enjoyed full fellowship with God, but soon rejected there creator. God created man because God wanted to have fellowship with man and wanted a companion, God loved us and he wanted us to fulfill his eternal plan.
As Christians we should know that we are created specially and wonderfully made. God design man in a particular way making us in his likeness outwardly (so we would look like God). Even before the foundation of the world before God created the heavens and earth, He chose us, predestinated us and selected us that we may be confirmed to the image of Christ.
( Ephesians 1:14 and Roman 8:29)
