He Alone Knows Your True Plans and Purposes

Happy Weekend everyone,

The plans and purposes of every person born to the world are what makes the person relevant here on earth. Life is like a game, every character in the game has a purpose, as a character cannot play the role of another, because his, hers or its role in the game must be played. The same is seen for every person on earth, but how do we know what our plans and purposes are here on earth? This is my focus today.

Jeremiah 29:11 says, “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.” The Amplified Bible. Prophet Jeremiah said God knows our thoughts and plans which He Himself designed for us, so it is obvious that God is the person to turn to in order to get the plans and purposes for our lives. So how do we get them from God?

Jeremiah 29:12-13 says, “Then you will call upon Me, and you will come and pray to Me, and I will hear and heed you. ₁₃ Then you will seek Me, inquire for, and require Me [as a vital necessity] and find Me when you search for Me with all your heart.” The Amplified Bible. What these verses are saying is that when you really want something, you search for it, not minding how much it would cost. But the truth is that God is not far away, He is everywhere, so what does it mean when the verse says, “…search for Me with all your heart.”?

God is everywhere, but He is everywhere, why haven’t we been able to gain access to what our plans and purposes are? The answer is this, we have always been distracted to the point that we forget He is everywhere. Our distractions are so much that we think God is just quiet letting us face life, and not saying anything. But do you know God has always been calling your attention, but as I said, we have been distracted, (ref.: Romans 1:18-21). This is why the only way you can gain access to your plans and purposes for your life is through prayer to God, which sounds simple, but not just prayer, it is the prayer where you search for God with all your heart. In other words, it is only when you cut off all forms of distraction, which is everything except God that you can then hear God and listen to His plans and purposes for your life, but if you want to be wise in your eyes, which actually is being foolish, then try to find out your plans and purposes all by yourself.

There is nothing as bad as working very hard here on earth and then meeting the Lord Jesus on the last, only for Him to tell you all what you did wasn’t what He called you to do. Don’t be foolish, cut off all distractions and focus on Jesus alone, and when you ask God for His plans and purposes for you, He will answer you. You have nothing to lose, but everything to gain.

May the LORD bless you and keep you, make His face shine upon you. May the LORD be gracious to you and lift up His countenance upon you, and give you peace. AMEN.

                    

Why not accept Jesus today if you haven’t. Pray out loud, “Jesus, I confess that You are my Lord and Saviour. I believe in my heart that God raised You from the dead. By faith in Your Word, I receive salvation now. Thank You for saving me!” Congratulations, you’re born again, you are now brand new!
