“We know that God is always at work for the good of everyone who loves him. They are the ones God has chosen for his purpose”
Romans 8:28(CEV)
When you align yourself with God's original plan for your life, all the things you need for that destiny will begin to answer to you. You will begin to walk in prepared places.
For instance, lets take a look at the life of Jonah who God sent to go to Nineveh which was five hundred miles from Jerusalem. Instead of going to Nineveh, he chose to go to Tarshish where God had not sent him, and it was two thousand miles away from Jerusalem. In other words, he wanted to go two thousand five hundred miles from where he was supposed to go.
As Jonah embarked on his own way on another ship going where God had not sent him, he could not make progress. But immediately they threw him into the sea from the ship he was in, the Bible says that God had prepared a fish to swallow up Jonah.
In other words, until you choose to cease from your own way and yield to God's instruction to walk the prepared path, you will not be able to enjoy the things that God has prepared for you.
There is a prepared path for you. There are things that God has provided along the way for you to enjoy as you walk along these prepared path.
You can achieve or accomplish whatever you want to achieve or accomplish, but true fulfillment will only come from doing what God made you for. This is because true joy only comes from fulfilling God's plan and purpose for your life.
PRAYER
Dear Father today I dedicate my life to walking in your plan and purpose for my life, taking those paths which You have ordained for me to walk in. I repent from every stubbornness and I choose to cease from my own way. Thank you Father for grace to fulfill my purpose without reproach in Jesus Name. Amen.
