FULFILLING HIS PURPOSE

Psalm 57:2-3 I cry out to God Most High, to God who will fulfill his purpose for me. ….My God will send forth his unfailing love and faithfulness.

I know of a minister of the gospel who had been in ministry for decades and thought he was on the right track doing what was wanted of him when the Lord stopped him one day and told him he was only just going to be starting the work God had prepared him for! After decades!

God then led him in a different direction, giving him a television teaching ministry outreach that touches the world so he had quite a shock! All his previous years of ministry had been steady preparation for the new thing God had for him.

We can be merrily going along thinking this is all there is, when the Lord brings us up short and let’s us know that He still has a further plan and purpose for our lives, that there is more. So often we go through all kinds of things and can think “Why did I go through all that? What was it all about?” We forget that God wastes no experience we have been through, that He can not only turn it round, but He can use it for His future plan and purpose in our lives, for His glory.

So never be discouraged by what you have gone through, but trust the Lord to fulfil His purpose because with God it’s never too late to do a work for Him. We can trust Him to send his unfailing love and faithfulness into every area of our lives, and know that what God has started He always finishes.😊 

We are all still a work in progress and there may well be some big surprises in our future which will not only bless us but be a blessing to others too. No matter what unfolds we can be sure that God is good to us all and His mercy endures for ever.

Lord help us keep our hearts open to You so we’re ready and willing to do whatever You want us to do. In Jesus name. Amen.

Have a blessed weekend.x😊
