God's Desire for You

Day 164

Reading: Psalms 131:1 - Psalms 140:13

God loves you and I. His love is undiminished. As I meditated on what to write I began to hear the following words; "God desires the best for you. Reading through the passages of scripture above my heart was captivated with how much do we take for granted what God desires for us? Many times we seem to think that God doesn't have the best intentions for us yet God desires the best for us.

The Psalmist understood that God is interested in everything about humanity. God is so big and yet so interested in the mundane that He was there when you and I were being formed. There is nothing insignificant to God. You are not insignificant. You were born with a purpose and God was involved in your making. You are not an accident nor an incident or coincidence waiting to happen. God planned and fashioned your timeline. He formed and covered you whilst making you. Your days were written in His books before you were born. His desire is that you would testify of His marvellous works in all things.

God desires to perfect that which pertains to you. Whatever you are looking at that looks imperfect bring it to God for He is the Perfector of our lives. God desires to perfect our homes, relationships, finances, health, and all that concerns our lives.

Not only does God desire to perfect our lives, He also desires to finish what He has started in us. Unless you allow God to take control of your life and you walk in the paths He ordained you will not be able to see God as a Finisher. Whatever project God embarks on He desires to finish all the marvellous works he has ordained for your life.

Get ready to cry tears of joy because God will be your Finisher, Completer, and Perfector in all that concerns you.

Memory Verse: Psalms 139:14

Decree:

Psalms 138:7-8
Though I walk in the midst of trouble, You will revive me; You will stretch out Your hand against the wrath of my enemies, and Your right hand will save me. The Lord will perfect that which concerns me; Your mercy, O Lord, endures forever; do not forsake the works of Your hands. (italics mine)

Now is....

Everyday I seek to share something that I have learnt through the daily reading. I make a choice to discipline myself not to write too much as we inundated with a lot of reading material. Feel free to add comments because that way we share and thus encourage one another to grow into the fullness of Christ. Today I am amazed at the fact that God will always remember His covenant and fulfill the promise. I want to list five words in the order they appear in one scripture that showed God is at work in our lives. Remembered : My God will never forget me. To be delayed is not to be denied as God will surely remember. God spoke and said to Sarah that He would return at the appointed time; at the right season!!! I do believe that we are in a season where we will see God begin to act on the promises that seem forgotten. Or better put in another way there is a resurrection of seemingly forgotten prophecies that is about to take place. Dry bones are beginning to take shape. Listened : No longer ...

Blessing or ....

To live well is one thing we all desire. I have never met anyone who did not want to live well. By living well for some people it means helping others. For others it means having a successful business. Yet for others it means travelling the world. I have discovered that it is not money that empowers but the blessing of God that empowers. Money is simply one of the many ways that the effects of the blessing may show up. Many times today in society we confuse money with being blessed yet people like Mother Teresa did not flaunt money but her life still is blessing many people round the world. The book of Deuteronomy has challenged me to desire to be blessed. Anyone who has walked with the blessing of God in their live has seen doors open that are a struggle for others. Yesterday I wrote about obedience. What obedience opens our lives to is the operation of the blessing. By choosing to obey the Word we are choosing to open our lives to be blessed. The purpose of being blessed is not self ...

Absalom's Treachery

Day 91 Reading: 2 Sam. 14:1 - 2 Sam. 15:37 One of life's most painful lessons is the treachery of human beings. When family or friends hurt you and leave you grieving the pain is not the same as when someone out on the street does something wrong. The pain goes deeper and it's easy to become bitter. Absalom had fled from Israel knowing that he was a wanted man for the murder and revenge on Ammon his step-brother. Joab arranged for a wise woman to go see David and get him to forgive Absalom. The wise woman made David realise that he was not setting a godly example by exiling Absalom. The wise woman made David understand that God will not banish anyone but he will seek the person out. God will do everything in His power to restore the banished person. The wise woman was asking David not to forget the grace of God that enables one to enjoy forgiveness. David gets Absalom brought back to Jerusalem however for 2 years he didn't see him. Now, this was worse than ...
