God has a plan for every one

The counsel of the LORD standeth forever, the thoughts of his heart to all generations. - Psalms 33:11 

God has great plans about us in his mind. The word of God says this, “thoughts that I think toward you”.  Sometimes our present situation may be seem to be a confusing one.  It may seem to be out of our control.  But don’t get despaired.  God has a great future plan about our life and surely it will happen.  The plan of God will be revealed at the end.  Trust in the Lord, have faith in Jesus Christ and thank God for all things happening now.  In the life of Moses, God has great thought about him.  When Moses was grown, he saw an Egyptian smiting a Hebrew.  Moses looked all around, and when he saw that no one was watching, he killed the Egyptian and hid his body in the sand.

  The next day he went back and saw two Hebrew men fighting. He said to the one who was on the wrong, "Why are you beating up a fellow Hebrew?"  And he said, who made thee a prince and a judge over us? Intends thou to kill me, as thou kills the Egyptian? And Moses feared, and said, surely this thing is known.  Now when Pharaoh heard this incident, he sought to slay Moses. But Moses fled from the face of Pharaoh, and dwelt in the land of Medina: and he sat down by a well.(Exo 2:14-15)  When you see this incident we are unable to see God’s plan in the incidents that happened to Moses. 

 It seemed the wrong thing happened to Moses.  But God’s thought about Moses does not change.  The thing that  happened to Moses is not evil. It is the thought of peace.  When time came The  Lord met Moses in the burning bush and revealed the HIS plan about Moses.  Moreover he said, I am the God of thy father, the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob. And Moses hid his face; for he was afraid to look upon God.  

And the LORD said, I have surely seen the affliction of my people which are in Egypt, and have heard their cry by reason of their taskmasters; for I know their sorrows;    And I have come down to deliver them out of the hand of the Egyptians, and to bring them up out of that land unto a good land and a large, unto a land flowing with milk and honey; unto the place of the Canaanites, and the Hittites, and the Amorites, and the Perizzites, and the Hivites, and the Jobsites. 

  Now therefore, behold, the cry of the children of Israel is come unto me: and I have also seen the oppression wherewith the Egyptians oppress them.   Come now therefore, and I will send thee unto Pharaoh, that thou mayest bring forth my people the children of Israel out of Egypt.(Exo 3:6-10) Dear beloved, sometimes the same thing may happen in your life.  In your sight all things happening around you appears to be wrong and evil.  But don’t forget that God has a great plan about your life.  In the life of Joseph too  God had a great plan.  Joseph’s  brothers threw him into the well in the wilderness and sold him as a slave to the ishmaleites in that situation nothing good happened in the life of Joseph. His situation and circumstances were evil in nature .  

Sometimes like Joseph you maybe put in an evil situation and you may question God as to why you were put  to such a testing situation.  When Joseph was ruling Egypt, he was able to realise God’s plan.  To save his brothers and his people from the famine, God in the past allowed all the testing situations happen in the life of Joseph.  But as for you, ye thought evil against me; but God meant it unto good, to bring to pass, as it is this day, to save much people alive.(Gen 50:50)  we may also pass through a different testing situation  that happened similar in the life of Joseph.  And you don’t know the secret why God allows these situations happen our life.  All happen for good and a great future.  It happens for fulfilling God’s plan.  After you see the plan of God you will accord all glory and honor to him.  “It is good for me that I have been afflicted; that I might learn thy statutes”.(Ps 119:71)

For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, saith the LORD, thoughts of peace, and not of evil, to give you an expected end. - Jeremiah 29:11 

 May god bless You all.

Our Imagination towards God

For our light affliction, which is but for a moment, worth for us a far more exceeding and eternal weight of glory; While we look not at the things which are seen, but at the things which are not seen: for the things which are seen are temporal; but the things which are not seen are eternal. 2 Corinthians 4:17-18

Here God is saying our affliction is for a moment or temporary.  The word of God also says our affliction is light or small.  For whom the affliction is for a moment or it’s very small?  It is for those who look the things that not seen.  What is the things that not seen?  It’s our imagination.

Imagination is the one that we not seen by our physical eyes but we are seeing through imagination.  When God created man, He makes man with imagination.  But God surely had a reason to make mankind with an imagination.  Faith is the one we imagine that we can’t see it.  Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen.(Heb 11:1)  We are not seen the things that we hope.  But through imagination we are seeing as a vision.  You only can see the imagination as a vision but others can’t see it.  

God says to Abraham, Fear not, Abram: I am thy shield, and thy exceeding great reward.  Abraham answered Lord what good will your rewards do me, since I have no children?   And Abram said, Lord GOD, what wilt thou give me, seeing I go childless, and the steward of my house is this Eliezer of Damascus?    And Abram said, Behold, to me thou hast given no seed: and, lo, one born in my house is mine heir.    And, behold, the word of the LORD came unto him, saying, this shall not be thine heir; but he that shall come forth out of thine own bowels shall be thine heir.    And he brought him forth abroad, and said, look now toward heaven, and tell the stars, if thou be able to number them: and he said unto him, so shall thy seed be.   And he believed in the LORD; and he counted it to him for righteousness. (Gen 15:2-6)  Here Abraham looked un to things not seen.    When God promised Abraham that his generation likes the starts that can’t count, he did not see the starts as a stars.  Abraham starts to imagine and look at the stars like his children and his descendants.  With faith he saw the things that not seen.  Because of this the Lord counted it to him for righteousness.

What are the things we imagine today?    Things which are seen or things which are not seen.  We see the things that are seen and we have hope in it.  Christianity is a life walked with faith not with sight.  Take what God has said in His word, and imagine it that way in our life.  We will see the word of God and your faith will overcome.  We must cast down imaginations that do not agree with God's Word.  (For the weapons of our warfare are not carnal, but mighty through God to the pulling down of strong holds;)    Casting down imaginations, and every high thing that exalted itself against the knowledge of God, and bringing into captivity every thought to the obedience of Christ ;( 2Cor 10:4-5) Imagination is part of faith, so we will imagine in agreement with God's word.  Then we will see our affliction is for a movement and very small to us. 

May god bless you all.
