My Plan, My Time!

Hello Friend,

I know it’s been such a long time but praise the Lord, I am back online! So, let’s get into the word. There is something about this time and season that we live in; I don’t fully understand it but I am asking God to give me an understanding like he gave the sons of Issachar. The bible says:

In him we were also chosen, having been predestined according to the plan of him who works out everything in conformity with the purpose of his will. Ephesians 1:11

We are predestined according to God’s plan; this is what the scripture says. In life, for any objective, complex or simple to be successfully accomplished, a plan or a proposed course of action is usually required. In a standard plan, you’ll notice sections like:

• The objectives.
• The activities or tasks to be carried out in order to reach the objectives.
• The timeframe to accomplish the tasks.
• The task owner.

For example, after the fall of man, God had an objective to redeem man back to himself and to do that, the situation of Augustus ordering a census, Mary conceiving of the Holy ghost, Joseph wanting to put her away, Zacharias receiving a revelation, Elizabeth the old and barren conceiving, John the Baptist preaching, Jesus going to Calvary, had to occur. All these happened in appointed times, the ultimate task owner being Jesus.

But when the right time came, God sent his Son [into the world]. A woman gave birth to him, and he came under the control of God’s laws. Galatians 4:4

God (task owner) has a plan for our lives, we know! We all often quote:

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. Jeremiah 29:11

Can you see from this very text that there are specific things (Objectives) that God wants to accomplish in your life? He actually outlines them! Paul said, he works out everything in conformity with the purpose of his will.

And we know that God causes all things to work together for good to those who love God, to those who are called according to His purpose. Romans 8:28

He works out everything and causes all things to work together for our good (Activities). All those times you ailed, cried, laughed, starved, lacked, gave, served, fasted, prayed; these are all activities in the plan and they’re being worked out. Regarding timeframes, here’s what Solomon had to say:

There is a time for everything, and a season for every activity under heaven: He has made everything beautiful in its time. He has also set eternity in the hearts of men; yet they cannot fathom what God has done from beginning to end. Ecclesiastes 3:1, 11

I want you to take a few moments to talk to God, praise him for the plans he has for you, thank him for every part of the plan including those you may not understand; he’s one task owner that delivers without fail; for he who has promised is faithful and he will do it. Halleluyah!

There’s a rain coming!

There is a sound; it’s the sound of abundance of rain. You may say how can it rain when I see no cloud in the air? There is no sign. Be not like the Pharisees, don’t be plagued by unbelief, rise up in faith, and hold fast the confession of your hope without wavering; for He who promised is faithful. Did he not promise to give you rain in due season so that your land yields its increase, and the trees of the field their fruit?

There is a sound; it’s the sound of abundance of rain. The LORD is opening for you His good storehouse, the heavens, to give rain to your land in its season and to bless all the works of your hands; you shall lend to many nations, but you shall not borrow.

There is a sound; it’s the sound of abundance of rain. Yes, it’s a heavy shower and not a light sprinkle. Get ready! Get ready!! Get ready!!! Open up your tanks. People of Zion, celebrate in honor of the LORD your God!

He is generous and has sent the autumn and spring rains in the proper seasons. Grain will cover your threshing places; jars will overflow with wine and olive oil. I, the LORD your God, will make up for the losses caused by those swarms and swarms of locusts I sent to attack you. My people, you will eat until you are satisfied. Then you will praise me for the wonderful things I have done. Never again will you be put to shame. My child, you will know that I stand at your side. I am the LORD your God, there are no other gods. Never again will you be put to shame.

So, keep praying though it seems as if the windows of heaven are shut, don’t give up! I know you’ve checked a few times and have seen nothing. Go back again! What do you see? A cloud as small as a man’s hand? Or the sky becoming black with clouds and wind? I am watching over my word to perform it, and it shall be done to you according to your faith.
