Let’s talk today about trusting God, particularly in the area of walking out the plan for your life and letting Him direct your path.
Remember that God has a plan for your life from the very moment that you are conceived in your mother’s womb. He tells us in Psalm 139:14 that He has wonderfully made us, that we are complex, and it is remarkable to think about how perfectly He made us. His workmanship is beautiful and marvelous to behold! You are one of a kind, uniquely created for the work that He has called you to do. You are not like anyone else, so don’t try to be like anyone else. You are you, and that is the way God intended you to be. You may say, what about this weakness and what about that? God doesn’t see you that way. Remember, you have been redeemed from the curse of the law, and the curse of the law includes all the weaknesses of your life. They are covered by the precious blood of Jesus, and you are blessed with His strengths, which overshadow your weaknesses. The key to walking in His strengths is yielding to Him, staying close to Him, abiding in His Word, the secret place of the Most High.
You are a Very Important Person to the Father, to Jesus and to the Holy Spirit. The Father gave His most precious gift to you, who are also His most precious gift. You are a gift to Him as Jesus was a gift to Him. He values you beyond measure. There is not a value that can be placed on you that is higher than His Son Jesus. And then Jesus loves you so much that He gave His life for you. And then the Holy Spirit has taken up residence in you and made you the temple of God. What more do you need?
Do you realize that God never makes a mistake and, therefore, didn’t make a mistake when He created you? And you know the neat thing about Him—He never created a failure or fear-ridden nobody. You are somebody. You are His child, created in His image, in His likeness, with all His characteristics, His character, His abilities. When you trust Him and all His abilities and fruit and gifts inside you, then you give Him the open highway for the success factor to be created in your life, for you personally. That means success in every area of your life. What do you think prosperity means? It means success, excellence in every area of your life.
Start where you are and ask the Lord to give you His vision. Meditate on who you are in Him. Think about what He has given you in the person of Himself—unlimited ability. My, my, my, what a wonderful plan and what a wonderful planner. He has only good for you and your life. If you have experienced a lot of the opposite, it is because you did not know what a good God you serve, and when the enemy, the devil, came and brought his junk, you didn’t know to send him “packing.” Well, turn the tables on him from now on, and walk the victorious life. He knows that you are the victorious one. Now you are going to have to walk that way and he will flee. Oh, he may try to stick around and see if you are going to go into your old ways, but you can outlast him because he is already defeated.
Be blessed today in the fullness of what God has for you.
