Rhapsody of Realities 2nd December 2024. JESUS WANTS THE BEST FOR YOU

Pastor Chris Oyakhilome DSc DSc DD

You saw me before I was born. Every day of my life was recorded in your book. Every moment was laid out before a single day had passed. How precious are your thoughts about me, O God. They cannot be numbered! (Psalm 139:16-17 NLT).

Some people are afraid to allow the Lord Jesus have His way in their lives. They think He’ll change their dream; that dream they’ve so nursed all their lives; that picture they’ve painted for themselves. They feel He might lead them to become something they don’t want, so they become apprehensive.

Well, the only people that think this way are those who don’t know who Jesus is. And because they don’t know Him, they can’t trust Him. If you ever get to know who He is, you’d learn to trust Him. Think about it: all He ever wants is the best for you. Therefore, you can trust Him with your life. He’s interested in everything about you. He loves you more than you love yourself. He has a plan for you, and that plan is to make you successful and joyful all the time.

He said in Jeremiah 29:11 NIV, “For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the LORD, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.” No one else has this kind of plan for you. It also brings to mind His endearing words in 3 John 1:2, “Beloved, I wish above all things that thou mayest prosper and be in health, even as thy soul prospereth.” Think about that! 

It’s the reason He gave you His life, His righteousness, His glory, and His Name; so you can live transcendently above Satan, sin, sickness, disease, infirmities and death. Glory to His Name forever!

Prayer / Confession

Righteous Father, thank you for your unwavering love and perfect plans for my life. I trust you completely, knowing that your plans are to prosper me, give me hope, and secure my future. I choose to follow your guidance, confident that I’ll always live a life of joy and fulfilment, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.
