GOD Has a Plan for You!

GOD Has a Plan for You!

GOD has a plan for you! You are not here today by accident; you are here by divine appointment. Although your life may not be pleasing to GOD at this moment, He has something far better for you. You may be going through severe trials and troubles in your life, but GOD’s plan is to draw you through those things and bring you out purified and ready to carry out His perfect plan. He has a plan and purpose for your being.

The Jews found themselves in serious trouble. They had been taken captive by the Babylonians. Their temple and royal city lay in ruins. Their situation appeared hopeless. Their future as a nation destroyed. Out of the chaos and destruction, GOD’s voice came to them through the prophet Jeremiah. GOD encouraged them to continue moving forward. Quit looking at your difficulties and troubles and focus upon the greatness GOD has purposed for you.

GOD spoke these words of encouragement and assurance to them:For I know the plans I have for you-this is the Lord’s declaration-plans for your welfare, not for disaster, to give you a future and a hope. You will call to Me and come and pray to Me, and I will listen to you. You will seek Me and find Me when you search for Me with all your heart” (Jeremiah 29:11-13).

God instructed the people to call out to Him, to pray to Him, to seek Him out and to search for Him with their whole heart. Then, He would listen to their pleas and be found by them in the midst of their chaos and distress.
Today, you may be suffering through tremendous trials in your life. Maybe you feel like you’ve lost your best friend or nobody cares. Maybe your life is not where it should be and you are going through terrible problems in your life because of that. I assure you that these things are not GOD’s plan for you; they are not His purpose for your being.
Just as He told the Jews, He is telling you today—re-focus! Take your eyes off of YOU and put them on HIM. Re-establish your goals and desires based upon GOD’s plans and purpose not man’s. Re-order your life in accordance with GOD’s Word not the world around you. Turn your whole heart over to Him. Seek Him fully and He will be found. He will establish your steps and lead you in paths that generate fulfillment and bring meaning to your life.
