Rest! because God KNOWS and He wants the best for you - Victor King
" For I know the plans I have for you," declares the LORD, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future " - Jeremiah 29:11
What a beautiful verse. God's words are better than life,amen. Jeremiah 29:11 is a very famous and powerful verse but lets camp at this verse for a while and see the beauty of it. It will bless you and turn you on.
God says here Jeremiah 29:11 that HE KNOWS the plans HE HAS FOR YOU.
What kind of plans do you think a Good, Loving, Generous, Merciful, Gracious and a Big God has for you? And remember, this wonderful God happens to be your Father also so what kind of plans do you think our good Father God has for us?
Thank God! that verse didn't say, 'God knows the plans we have for
ourselves'. Our plans are small, limited and it fluctuates. We think that as long if we spend more time praying, fasting, serving and doing good works then God will bless us more and we start planning things according to how we have behaved towards God.
Some of our plans are according to circumstances. Our plans could be based on our education, family name, bank account and many other resources.
But Praise the Name of Jesus! that we are blessed according to God's Goodness and Grace. It is NOT based on our works. God's plans are bigger than yours. God's plans for you are unearned, undeserved and unmerited.
Thank God that HE knows the plans He has for us. We are taken care of. If your life is full of uncertainty then I got good news for you today! This good God has good plans for you own good. So Rest in His plans for you.
What are His plans???
To prosper you in all things and not to let harm come near you and plans to give you a hope! in your final outcome and a future. A Good God gives good future.
You maybe feeling hopeless and powerless to overcome adversities. Maybe you feel trapped in your job, or your marriage is in trouble and there doesn’t seem to be an answer. You may have a child who is on the wrong path. Or maybe you are single and have given up any hope of ever meeting the right person. Maybe you are having a difficult colleague or It could be a habitual problem.
But no matter where you are, God can turn your situation around by His Grace. He will surely give you a good hope in your final outcome. He knows what is best for you becuase He cares for you.
HE KNOWS
Have you noticed that God says that HE KNOWS the plans HE has for you.
How come God is so confident to say that He knows with such a authority?
He KNOWS because He paid for it. He can say that He knows what plans and thoughts He has for you and your future because He died for it! He can say He knows because He Himself paid the price for you. The Finish work of Jesus Christ on the Cross is your 'receipt'
He paid away all the negative things in your life on the cross when He shouted " It is finished " and gave you a new life, His very own life and that's why He can tell you that He knows. Instead of worrying all day long and wondering if life is going to be good, REST in the One who knows and had to bleed to give us that good life. He had to die for us to give us an abundant life and that's why He Knows.
He knows that you are going to be fruitful and multiply, He knows that you will have a wonderful marriage life, He knows that you will be the head and not the tail in your work place, He knows you will have a healthy life, He knows you will be rich, He knows that you will get a wonderful partner, He knows the dreams and desires you have. He knows what is best for you because HE Himself paid for it.
You are not alone in this life. You are taken care of the One who knows what would be the best for your life.
He wants the best for you
" God wants you be blessed more than you want to be blessed " - Pastor Joseph Prince.
Sometimes we get very frustrated and disappointed in life when things don't happen the way we want it to happen and we think that maybe it's not God's will to bless us. We think that in life we have to "work" ourselves to being more blessed but nothing could be further from the truth that God wants us to be blessed more than we want to be blessed.
Its God's will and His Heart for us to be blessed and prosper in ALL things. God wants us to take advantage of His Goodness and Grace. He had to die to give us the best of life.
God wants us to prosper more than we want to prosper. " But you shall remember the Lord your God, for it is He Who gives you power to get wealth, that He may establish His covenant which He swore to your fathers, as it is this day - Deuteronomy 8:18
God has to give you the power to get wealth today so that He may establish His Covenant. God cut a Covenant with Jesus on the Cross to make you wealthy. He paid for you. " You know the generous grace of our Lord Jesus Christ. Though he was rich, yet for your sakes he became poor, so that by his poverty he could make you rich " - 2 Corinthians 8:9
God wants you righteous more than you want to be righteous. " He guides me in paths of righteousness for His name's sake " - Psalm 23:3. He guides into right standing for His namesake because you are His child.
He wants you to live right more than you want to live right. He died for our sins so today He can make us live righteously. " But He was wounded for our transgressions, He was bruised for our guilt and iniquities; the chastisement peace and well-being for us was upon Him..... - Isaiah 53:5
God wants us Healthy more than we want to be healthy because He died and paid for our health and well being...... and with the stripes that wounded Him we are healed and made whole - Isaiah 53:5
God wants the best for us more than what we want it for ourselves. It is like He has no choice but to make you healthy and wealthy. He has no choice but to forgive you. He has no choice but to abundantly bless you! simply because of the Cross of our Lord Jesus.
Whether you like it or not He wants to bless you. He paid for it. Rest in His Goodness and Grace. Rest in the One who knows and wants the Best for you. Rest in Jesus.
