Life With Purpose

“...this was in accordance with the eternal purpose which He carried out in Christ Jesus our Lord” Eph 3:11

Does God guide? Your answer to that question could be based on many different factors. Generally, Christians emphatically answer yes. However, with today’s confusion, both in and out of the church, God’s guidance is sometimes suspect. How personal God is, His morality, even His immortality have been questioned.

But God’s guidance is real and is based on His eternal plan. God has always dealt with His people according to His plan. The Israelites were delivered from Egypt and from Babylonian exile as God planned.

God had a plan for Jesus, and it was Jesus’ purpose on earth to accomplish the will of His Father.

Jesus said to the, “My food is to do the will of Him Who sent Me, and to accomplish His work.” John 4:34

God has a plan for you. Phase one, you already know. In Him “also we have obtained an inheritance, having been predestined according to His purpose...” Eph 1:11

Jewish believers were first to hope in Christ, and it is His will that together we all should bring Him glory.

He will guide you. Claim the reality of that marvelous truth for your life experience today.
