GOD’S PERFECT PLAN
One who breaks open the way will go up before them; they will break through the gate and go out. Their king will pass through before them, the LORD at their head. (Micah 2:13)
These days, people are unable to succeed in their endeavours due to many hurdles and hence they live in tears. Even more pitiable is the plight of those who seek the help of human beings to remove these obstacles. Human beings can give various suggestions and confuse us. They can never bring a real solution to our problems.
Only the Almighty God can remove all hurdles and bring blessings in our lives. Always bear in mind that He is the One who created the entire universe and there is nothing impossible for Him.
The Bible states, “This far you may come and no farther” (Job 38:11). Only the Almighty God could say the above mentioned words to the waves of the sea. Today, are you lamenting over the hurdles that are before you? Let me dwell at length as how to inherit God’s blessings through His promises.
The devout Job said, “I know that you can do all things; no plan of yours can be thwarted” (Job 42:2). Lord Jesus Himself testified about Job saying, “Job is blameless and upright, a man who fears God and shuns evil.” Even he had to go through severe afflictions in life. All his ten children perished on the same day. He lost everything including his property on the same day. Above all, he lost his health.
Job was afflicted with painful sores from the soles of his feet to the top of his head. He took a piece of broken pottery and scrapped himself with it. His own friends started humiliating him. Moreover, his own wife ill-treated him and told him to curse God and die. Even in that situation Job said, “The Lord is able to do everything. His plan cannot be thwarted.”
Are you going through afflictions and losses in your life just like Job? Kindly do not be worried. Although he lost everything in life, he had great confidence and faith that the Lord Almighty could do everything and remove all the hurdles which were before him. Do you have the same faith and confidence?
Our God is the Alpha and Omega (Revelation 1:8). He says, “I am who I am” (Exodus 3:14). He is the same yesterday, today and forever (Hebrews 13:8). So do not make a mountain out of a mole hill and glorify your problems. Job was very confident even in that pathetic situation. He said, “Though he slay me, yet will I hope in him; I will surely defend my ways to his face” (Job 13:15).
God’s plans cannot be thwarted. He will certainly go before you, remove all hurdles and fulfill His purpose for you.
Prayer:
Loving Lord Jesus,
You are able to do everything. No plan of yours can be thwarted. I seek your help. I place my faith and confidence in You. Only You can remove all hurdles and bring blessings in my life. There is nothing impossible for You. Please resolve all my problems. Go ahead of me, remove all hurdles and fulfill your purpose for me.
Amen.
