I have spoken, and I will bring it to pass; I have purposed, and I will do it.
Isaiah 46:11
As Christians we seek God’s will to be done here on earth as it is in Heaven (Matthew 6:10). In fact we pray for God’s will to be done in our lives. There is no stopping the will of God nor is there a chance that we can change the will of God.
Have you ever wondered what it would be like to be God? We are so thankful that God is who He is. There is none like Him nor is there anyone or anything that can compare to Him. There is one God and He is our God!
As He says in today’s verse, “I have said it and I will make it happen.” Only God can fulfill those words and keep the promises that He speaks. The reason He can make all things happen is because He plans and purposes all things.
We need to grasp this concept and adapt it into our daily living. God will use all things to work together for good to those who are called according to His purpose. (Romans 8:28)
We pray and seek God’s will to be done but do we consider the bad things to be part of God’s will as well. We tend to blame the bad things that happen on Satan. Sometimes God’s will may allow us to go through trying times and through muddy waters before we receive the great reward.
God purposes and plans all things because He is in control of all things.
Pray
Lord, help me to know that You alone are in control and Your will is being purposed in my life. Give me peace and comfort of knowing that You love me and everything will be just as You have planned it.
