Praise the lord

let's turn our bibles to Jeremiah chapter 29-11 For i know the plans i have for you plans to
prosper you and not to harm you plans to give you a hope and a future.
god has plans for you. As it says in the verse he has plans to prosper you and plans to give
you a hope and a future. You were not made an accident. Genesis 1-27 says, so god
created mankind in his own image in the image of god he created them; male and female he
created them. This refers that, if god had thought us so special that he created us in his own
image- gods image then it means that gods plans for us must be for him. This means that
not every one will be able to heal the sick not every one will be prophets but god has
assigned each of us our own tasks according to our abilities. God knows our strengths and
our weaknesses and he uses them for his will. God had a plan for Moses he wanted to use
him to set the Israelites free. God knew Moses stuttered so god used Aaron to help him. And
god had a plan for Aaron to become his priest. God saw a king in a shepherd boy and
because that boy obeyed and lived to obey God’s plan in him God made him successful in
all that he did. He had a plan for you since the beginning of time and you are a part of his
great plan for the kingdom of god. Today we have our own plans maybe it is to get a new job
buy a new car or spend our money on worthless things that won’t get us any where. God’s
plans will never be to bring us down or tear us down. Sinning or disobeying god won’t be
part of his plan. He wants us to have the ultimate goal of following him to reach our eternal
life. So ask yourself day by day. are you living up to god’s plan or do you want to follow your
plan that will only lead to destruction?
lets turn our bibles to Acts 9.3 onwards
As he neared Damascus on his journey, suddenly a light from heaven flashed around him.

He fell to the ground and heard a voice say to him, “Saul, Saul, why do you persecute

me?” “Who are you, Lord?” Saul asked.“I am Jesus, whom you are persecuting,” he

replied. “Now get up and go into the city, and you will be told what you must do.” 15 But the

Lord said to Ananias, “Go! This man is my chosen instrument to proclaim my name to the

Gentiles and their kings and to the people of Israel.As it says here god wanted Paul to follow

his plan not Paul’s which was to kill all the followers of Jesus . god changed his life for he

better of him and he gave Paul an opportunity Paul to change and turn back to god.

Because Paul accepted gods plan for his life he received the greatest gift of all also given to

each one of us and this gift is eternal life. If god can use one person against his followers in

his plan can he can use you too. But the choice is yours whether you want to go according

this plan or yours. I pray that God will encourage you through these words God bless you.
