God Has a Book On You

God Has a Book on You

Beloved of God

You are welcome to another refreshing teaching..

All the days ordained for me were written in Your book before one of them came to be ( Psalm  139:16).

God designed you to be somebody. He looked at your unformed body and declared, “This child is good.” All His plans for your life were set out long before you took a breath. He wrote out the order of your days before you lived even one day (Psalm 139:16). There’s a book on you. Some chapters God wrote about you haven’t even been touched yet.

Some of you are playing around in the index or you have spent years in the table of contents. Perhaps you are 30 years old and you still don’t know God’s plan for your life. That’s playing around on the contents page. You are 30 years old and still wondering what you are supposed to be. You haven’t even started yet.

Others have jumped ahead of God’s plan. Though His design calls for you to be married in chapter 17, you got married in chapter two. You have ignored the things God wanted you to learn and experience in chapters 2 through 16 so you would be prepared for marriage in chapter 17. You have missed out on many experiences and discoveries because you moved ahead of God’s schedule.

Some people are so busy peeking into chapter 17 they don’t have time to live chapters 2 and 3 and 4…. Or perhaps you have pulled chapter 17 into chapter 2 so that the rest of the book is destroyed. You will never have the opportunity to experience all the chapters if you pull parts of later chapters into the early ones.

God Offers You a Rewrite

God wants to take you back to the beginning, because His plans far outreach your plans. His design for your life is so great that King David describes it as vast ( Psalm 139:17). You are thinking about being a teacher while God wants you to open a school. You have plans to be a clerk while God wants you to own the store. You want to work in a neighboring town while God wants you to go to Africa. You often cheat yourself because you don’t realize the potential you have. Why settle to be a doorman when God wants you to own the house? David says it this way: “God, when I look at your thoughts in the book on me, it’s like all the sands in the ocean. Your thoughts are endless. I can’t fathom your confidence in me.”

God designed you to live out the careful plans He prepared for you. You are made in God’s image. The plan He wrote for you is perfect and right. No detail or part is missing. You have the potential to live out all that God has planned for your life—but only if you accept Jesus Christ as your Savior and Lord. That’s the first step toward understanding why you were born.

Though you’ve messed up God’s perfect plan for your life, He graciously offers to write another book for you. It probably won’t be the best-seller the first book was designed to be, but at least God gives you the chance to start over. He comes and puts you back in chapter one so you can live the many details of His plan. That’s what being born again is all about. It’s the opportunity to start over—it’s finally getting back to the first chapter of God’s book on you. God has great plans for you— that’s why He gave you life. Self-acceptance is the key to healthy selfesteem. Accept yourself as God made you. Allow His power to transform your weakness, rather than belittling yourself when you make mistakes

Un-masking the past - Part 2

Why do you need to unmask the past? If you are not ready to unmask the past, you will remain a slave to your past. You won't be able to identify why you failed the way you fail. You won't be able to maintain the pattern of success you had in the past. It because difficult for you to trace the source of any present issue, conflict, and negative experience. Unmasking the past is the best gift you can ever offer yourself. You need to unmask the past, understanding your past is what dictates what to stop doing, what to start doing, what to change, and what to improve.

What's the quality of your attitude, mindset and manner of approach, you are investing in the lives of the people around you? Will you enjoy this lady or man treating you the same way you are treating him or her? Will you enjoy this person talking to you in the same manner you are talking to him or her?
