Primary Text
“Long
ago, even before He made the world, God chose us to be His very own through
what Christ would do for us; He decided then to make us holy in His eyes,
without a single fault—we who stand before Him covered with His love. His
unchanging plan has always been to adopt us into His own family by sending
Jesus Christ to die for us. And He did this because He wanted to!” Ephesians
1v4-5 (NLT)
“Even as [in His love]
He chose us [actually picked us out for Himself as His own] in Christ before
the foundation of the world, that we should be holy (consecrated and set apart
for Him) and blameless in His sight, even above reproach, before Him in
love. For He foreordained us (destined us, planned in love for us) to be
adopted (revealed) as His own children through Jesus Christ, in accordance with
the purpose of His will [because it pleased Him and was His kind intent]—”
Ephesians 1v4-5 (AMP)
Our God
is the best planner one could ever have – and He has plans for your life. Scripture
attest to this fact. We see this for example in Jeremiah 29v11 (AMP) and
Ephesians 2v10 (AMP) which say: “For I know the thoughts and plans that I have for you, says
the Lord, thoughts and plans
for welfare and peace and not
for evil, to give you hope in your final outcome” AND “For we are God’s [own]
handiwork (His workmanship), recreated in Christ Jesus, [born anew] that we may
do those good works which God predestined (planned beforehand) for us [taking
paths which He prepared ahead of time], that we should walk in them [living the
good life which He prearranged and made ready for us to live].” God intended
for us to become His children, to be adopted into the family of God and He
accomplished all this by sending Jesus to die for us and through our faith in
the finished work of Christ, to be reconciled to God. The same way our Lord
Jesus Christ was on earth for a mission and purpose, so also are you here for a
purpose and reason; God has good works which He before ordained that you will
do. Regardless of the situation and circumstance you now find yourself, know
that God has a plan for your life. May we all enter into His good purpose for
our lives in Jesus name, amen.
Prayer
Father,
we thank You for this day. Thank You for Your plans for our lives. Father, may
Your total counsel for our lives be accomplished in Jesus name, amen.
