You know why I like talking to my family about what God is doing in their lives because I God always uses them to show me wonderful things about the truth of His Word. After talking with my sister today the Lord really open my eyes about trusting in His Provision and not my vision.
It is God's Will that we should have a Savior who could bear the punishment of our sin and take the penalty of death on our behalf (Isaiah 53). None of us could provide what was necessary or had the strength to endure the punishment in order to accomplish God's Will. We are all reliant upon God to provide for us the needed provision to accomplish His Will. That provision was in Jesus (Romans 5:8-11). Because whatever God Wills He provides for. Funny how we trust God enough to provide for us what is required for our redemption and salvation but we struggle to believe that God will provide what we need in order to do His Will here on Earth.
I mean think about it God has a purpose and plan for everyone on Earth. The first part of the plan is for you accept Jesus to (John 3:16, 2 Peter 3:9), the second is simply it is just to do His Will (Matthew 28:18-20). For each and everyone of us God has a plan that His has chosen for us to so we can accomplish His Will (Jeremiah 29:11). His plan does not promise us fame and fortune and it does not guarantee we will like every part of it. But the fact remains wherever He calls us to go, whatever He calls us to do, whenever He calls us to do it God will provide what we need to do it. So why worry about the provision when the Provider is your Lord? Simple question to ask but we all seem to struggle with it. I am not saying you do not need to work and money is going to fall out of the sky. All I am saying is stop fretting over what you lack and start believing that whatever God has willed in your life, He will provide what you need to do it. Whether it is people to help mentor you, a place to live, a job to have, or the strength to do to endure. He will always provide, you only need to be obedient and follow after Him (Matthew 6: 25:-34). The same God that provided what you needed for your soul will provide the things you need to do His Will. And the cool thing is this, in the end the only person that can receive the Glory is Jesus! How awesome is that! Stay focused you can do this!
