I am apart of God’s master plan. That is quite a bit to take in. Me, CJ, apart of God’s plan? I suppose it had been easier for me to believe that Jesus Christ died and rose for me, that I am saved from sin and destruction than it was to believe that God created me for good works. He created me for His purpose.
The mental, heart and soul issues that I have explored a little bit here has been blocking God from being able to use me to my full potential. Jesus said greater works will I do because He went to be with the Father. So the word is saying that I am supposed to do greater works than Jesus? In fact, I have already been predestined to do said work and all I need to do is walk in what God has called me to do. Powerful.
I am still fairly new to all of this. I am surprised really. But I’ll share this scripture that I really had to eat.
For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, says the Lord, thoughts of peace and not of evil, to give you a future and a hope. Jeremiah 29:11
And in verse 13 it says,
And you will seek Me and find Me, when you search for Me with all your heart.
It is impossible to do this if things are blocking my heart and mind. I mentioned unbelief in my last post but I also found fear and anxiety. Fear is terrible and I refuse to allow it to control me. Anxiety is horrible as well and I really did not know I had those issues until I was in an environment that exposed them.
Exposure, the steps to freedom may be uncomfortable but I am so glad today that I am free. I learned to love the truth, love correction, love instruction because there is no way I would have gotten better if I wasn’t open to receive the truth from people who actually love me.
Oh, I also discovered hopelessness! Hopelessness is powerful because it is so sneaky. I had to eat this scripture along side Jeremiah 29:11 because the hope that I have as a believer is not like the hope that nonbelievers have.
Now hope does not disappoint because the love of God has been poured out in our hearts by the Holy Spirit who was give us. Romans 5:5
I learned that I have to apply faith and hope to my daily life. I overcome everything by faith and hope is an anchor to my soul.
