MAR. 14TH
TEXT: Genesis 18:17-19King James Version (KJV)
17 And the Lord said, Shall I hide from Abraham that thing which I do;
18 Seeing that Abraham shall surely become a great and mighty nation, and all the nations of the earth shall be blessed in him?
19 For I know him, that he will command his children and his household after him, and they shall keep the way of the Lord, to do justice and judgment; that the Lord may bring upon Abraham that which he hath spoken of him.
In life, not many people consider themselves to be important for God to take notice of them, but they are wrong. Such persons find it very hard to believe when a child of God says, The Lord told me, or showed me so and so. It is too strange for them to comprehend. But the truth is that the Lord does commune with man. It is as a result of such divine communion that people are able to receive divine strategies to succeed in life. If you really want to excel in life, then grow your fellowship with God.
From our passage, we can see that God does make known His agenda to mortal man. So you may want to ask, why will the Almighty God see the need to talk to a mortal man?
It is simply because He loves us so much that he created us in His image and likeness (See Psalm 8:4-5). You are very important to God and he wants you to succeed in life. He has said, “My plans for you are good not evil, plans to bring you to your expected end.”
God wants you to succeed, but there is a wicked devil out there who is walking about like a roaring lion seeking for whom to devour. God’s plan is to bless you, but the devil’s plan is to make your life miserable. In the book of John chapter 10 verse 10, Jesus said, the devil, the thief has come to steal, kill and destroy. He has no good plan for you. But Jesus said, I have come that you may have life, and have it more abundantly.
Grow your work with Jesus and you will be amazed the glory that will follow.
