God Has A Plan For You!

It is important to know where we are and where God Is. Where am I in relation to where God desires me to be? I personally feel the need to press on, press in, press through the opposition of the enemy into the good that God has for me and all that I may influence.

Jer. 29:11, “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.”

God has “good” planned for those who will answer His call to discipleship. He has a promised (secured) end or divine heritage. We need not question our finish if only we will listen to the voice of God.

Jer. 29:12, “Then shall ye call upon me, and ye shall go and pray unto me, and I will hearken unto you.”

Oh, to call upon God, to seek His face and hear and see His answer. He promises to hear and respond (hearken). Our challenge is to clearly perceive His response.

Jer. 29:13, “And ye shall seek me, and find me, when ye shall search for me with all your heart.”

“...ye shall seek me, and find me...” God is always available. He is always with us. But we must have the sense of His presence to recognize His voice and to understand what he is doing or planning to do. God's promise is that we will find Him when we search for Him with all our heart. The human condition requires the intervention of our creator. We always stand in need of God's assistance. The question is, “Do we really want his help?” Are willing to relinquish control of our lives to Him. He knows the way I take (the path I should follow) and will direct my steps accordingly.

God has a plan for us. A plan for good and not evil. He has an expected (secured) finish for His people. Lord, I want to search for you with all my heart. I don't want anything to interfere with me pleasing you!
