SCRIPTURE: For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, saith the Lord, thoughts of peace, and not of evil, to give you an expected end. Jeremiah 29:11.
THOUGHT FOR THE DAY: Divine purpose happens for those who can trust the plan of God for their lives; those who will trust God not to mismanage their lives.
Our anchor Scripture reveals that God has a purpose for everyone. God created you for a specific assignment on earth.
Beloved, it does not matter how colourful your plans are, they can never be as wonderful as the plans of God for your life.
For example, while growing up with classmates and friends at various levels, I knew those who felt that we were wasting our lives by following God all the way. But see where the ‘waste’ has brought us today.
When my wife was to marry me, there were those who looked down on her as if she had lost her mind. Her friends, colleagues and other people around her were marrying people who were ‘bigger’ in size and in many ways than us. But I just graduated as a medical doctor living in doctors’ quarters. I did not even have a set of furniture for myself at that time.
I wasn’t too sure of having many material possessions at that time, but I knew I had fire, passion, vision, purpose, and mantle. And she knew how God convinced her about me and so, she did not follow people’s counsel. You can see where God has brought us today.
You see, purpose happens for those who can trust the plan of God for their lives, those who trust God not to mismanage their lives. That is what takes you to the place of prayer. That is what takes you to the place of trusting God to receive from Him.
REMEMBER THIS: Purpose happens for those who can trust the plan of God for their lives, those who trust God not to mismanage their lives.
