Responding to His Plans

Hello everybody,

How are you doing on this day? I hope well and bubbling in the Lord.

Primary Text

“And Mary said, Behold the handmaid of the Lord; be it unto me according to thy word. And the angel departed from her.” Luke 1v38 (KJV)

God has a plan for your life (Jeremiah 29v11; Ephesians 2v10). The question remains what is your response to His plan for your life? Do you give Him all the reasons why He has made a mistake in picking you and thinking that He can use you for that task? Moses did. Do you look at yourself and laugh? Sarah did. Do you try to run away from what He has asked you to do? Jonah did. Or do you submit to Him, even when you do not understand the process, like Joseph. Do you cry out for His purposes to be accomplished when we are feeling strained and not want to go forward anymore, as our Lord Jesus exemplified? The angel came to Mary to reveal God’s plans for her life. It seemed incredulous that a virgin would give birth to a child, and she asked how would this be, seeing I know not a man? But after the angel explained to her, she gave a wonderful response. What is your response to God’s purposes for your life?

Prayer

I don’t know how You are going to bring about Your purposes for my life, but I know with You nothing shall be impossible, and today, I say yes to Your will, Your way, Your plans in Jesus name, amen.
