Insightful, Biblical Devotions
“For we are God’s handiwork, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do “(Eph. 2:10 NIV).
We all have different plans with different motives or reasons. Somebody saw a weatherman on TV and decided to also become a weather forecaster. No one could convince him that he wouldn’t be standing in front of cameras pointing to the screen and forecasting the weather. But out of the blue, the Lord changed his plan. Even when you follow your false plan, God will try to get your attention. It’s up to you to cooperate with Him. Sometimes we hear the voice of God clearly, but our motives, egos and pride can make us take a direction that God is not leading us to.
We must be very sensitive to the Holy Spirit’s leading, so we don’t take a path that’s out of God’s will for our lives. For example, you may be entering into a wrong relationship and the Holy spirit will speak to your heart and warn you: don’t try that, don’t go there, don’t enter into that relationship.
Today my prayer for you is simple. And that is, in the midst of the hustle and bustle of dreaming and aspiration, you will always weigh all the plans that you purpose in your heart against heaven’s desire and plans and what God sees for your future. That you never find yourself focused on who you are becoming and miss what God saw you to be from the beginning of time in Jesus’ name Amen!
