GOD HAS A PLAN FOR YOU 

“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.” Jeremiah 29:11 KJV


Today, I have a few things that will encourage and help you to navigate yourself through life. You see, we live in a very polluted world that is really falling apart; a world where satanic activities are on the increase and the truth is being abused. Evil is being glamorized and lifted above good. Thus, it is so easy to begin to think that since it is the norm, we should join them. If you are not careful you will become sick, tired and distracted.


If you lose focus, you can easily burn out and you’ll want to quit. You will begin to doubt the things that you used to believe whether it is really true. You will be shocked how many people who sit in church every day, just passing through routine. Serving God is not meant to be a routine but an exciting journey because: “…the path of the just is as the shining light that shineth more and more unto the perfect day” (Proverbs 4:18 KJV).


That is what God ordained. As we continue on this journey of faith, it should be from glory to glory; not from glory to shame! Not from glory to disgrace, discouragement and confusion. When you begin to experience these, it means that something is missing. 


There is no accident in God. You already know that the scripture is very clear that whoever has been given the opportunity to be born in this world has a destiny to fulfill.  God has a special plan for such a person. Ever before he was born, God has already ordained what he will become. So, everyone who is on the face of this earth had been programmed and designed by God to be a success in whatever God has called him to become. So, keep enjoying the presence of God! And keep striving to become all that God had ordained for you to be right from the foundation of the world.
