God's Plan, God's Timing

“For I know the plans I have for you, says the Lord. “Plans for good and not for disaster, to give you a hope and a future.” - Jeremiah 29:11

“We went to the land where you sent us. It truly flows with milk and honey, and this is its fruit. Nevertheless the people there who dwell in the land are strong; the cities are fortified and very large; moreover we saw the descendants of Anak there. We cannot go up against the people, for they are stronger than we.

Caleb quieted the people before Moses, and said, “Let us go up at once and take possession, for we are well able to overcome it” – Numbers 13:27-28, 30-31

God had a plan for the Hebrew people. To go and possess the Promised Land. Moses sent 12 spies. 10 looked through their natural eyes and were overcome with fear. The other 2, Caleb and Joshua, believed what God said and therefore saw through God’s eyes. The other ten spies and the hundreds of thousands of Jews who feared and lacked faith in God – never experienced the Promised Land; which was God’s plan for them to be in. Only Joshua and Caleb entered because of their faith that they can go in because it was God’s plan.

When God compelled me to write my second book, Live the Life of Excellence, I told God - “NOW! Certainly is NOT the time”. Going through trials and difficulties, surely didn’t feel I was the one to tell anyone to be excellent. Then God made it very clear to me - It isn’t about you. It’s about Me and what I am doing. Don’t miss out.

What are you missing out on? What plan does God have for you that you are telling Him, “God, now, certainly is not the time.”? Are they so buried and given up on, not thought of anymore? Are you just happy to survive? Not live?

We wait for the perfect situation, circumstance. The right resources, mood, weather. We justify and rationalize why we can’t. We settle. We protect.

What if we give God the same respect we give our employer, our mortgage company? The electric company? We know the consequences of not doing the task commanded us; not paying the mortgage, or light bill. No matter what the excuses we do them. We have to.

God has plans for you this very day. Will you step out in faith? Will you trust God? Will you believe Him more than you believe the doubters? Remember its about who He is and what He is doing with what He has (which is ….everything)

If you were obedient to just do what He says – WHAT WOULD YOU SEE IN YOUR LIFE?

Go and find out - TODAY

Live Intentional - Today

Somehow, some way, intentionally be physically active

Continue to use empowering words – conversations, interactions

Read the Word – allow it to transform your spirit

Keep focused on your “identity” in Him. See you how God sees you.

Speak Truth into your life and other’s today. Be transformed by the renewing of your mind.
