Purpose In The Plan
Isaiah 58:11, “And the LORD shall guide thee continually, and satisfy thy soul in drought, and make fat thy bones: and thou shalt be like a watered garden, and like a spring of water, whose waters fail not.”
Hello everyone! Glad to see you have joined us for a little positive encouragement on another blessed day the Lord provided! As we take time to talk with God this morning, let’s just go ahead and ask Him for the purpose in the plan He has for you! Being a believer, we are already in acceptance of God’s promises, and His purpose to spread His message to every part of the earth, allowing people the opportunity to turn to Him before it’s too late. When each of us chose to repent and accept Him, we were all given the task of being a disciple for Him; this feeling of joy spread within and without us, giving us a need to share and use our testimony to bring others into the fold! We must also understand that God’s plan is to bring all creation unto Christ; teaching each of us to want to become more Christ-like in all we do and say. His main goal is to use our life events, whether trials, human errors, good moments or bad, as a way to understand that loving Him and enjoying His presence is an eternal forever. Our unique calling and our personal gifts are a part of life’s journey and are a planned part of discipleship, fellowship, worship, ministry and evangelism. Every part of us is a part that is included in the planned purpose God has ordained to us at the very beginning of our existence! What is your plan today? Have you thought of ways you can use your testimony to invite others to church, to events in the church, to conferences that are sharing information on how to be a believer or advance in discipleship? Jabez specifically called upon God to enhance his territory and how he could continue God’s work! Have you conversed with God and asked for Him to do for you what He did for Jabez? Maybe you are good at organizing conferences at church, or organizing church meals, or Bible school! Put your talents to use or ask the minister if you can be a volunteer for anything! Take a moment with God and ask where you can be a purposeful part of His plan for you! It may even be with an organization benefiting cancer, heart disease, Alzheimer’s, child abuse, etc., there are endless possibilities on how you can help God with His purpose! No matter how small you may feel, God’s purpose is ready to help you feel bigger and more productive! Check on the purpose in the plan that includes you!
