"His Voice Today"
December 9
🔸️ The privilege to know and live the life predicted by God! 🔸️
"It is God who has made us what we are now. Because of our relationship with Christ Jesus, He has enabled us to receive spiritual/eternal life in order that we should conduct our lives habitually doing the good deeds that God previously planned for us to do.(Ephesians 2:10).
When God chosen us in Christ many years ago, He defined what we should do in this Earthly life! Now our duty is to find out that plan of God every day and follow it accordingly! We can never define for ourselves a plan higher than God's plan!!
Since God has different plans for each of His children, we should not try to do the same as others do! For example, God's plan for Joseph was to "stay in the palace of Egypt and to live comfortably for the next eighty years of his life!" As the situation was like that, if Moses had followed Joseph's example and wanted comfort and luxury lifestyle.... he would surely lost God's will for his own life!
Like that, even today, God might have wanted a brother to live comfortably in the American Nation throughout his life! But, He might have kept another brother to live in the heat and dust of Northern India throughout his life time!! Both of these people should be content to aware of the plan that God has in their lives and should not be jealous or allegation of each other!
I am well aware that God has called me to serve in India. But I never persuaded anyone to have a call like mine. However, if we seek our own honour or desire a life of luxury or seek the recognition of people, we will never find God's plan for us!
Prayer:
Our Loving Father! Give us the grace to know and to live according to the determination you have foreshadowed in our lives! In the name of the Lord Jesus Christ, Amen.
