Word of Hope for Today by Bro. Rolly
Custodio
What God Says on You Matters Most (Part-2)
‘…I am watching to see that My Word is fulfilled.’ Jeremiah
1:12 NIV
Today’s Insight
Don’t waste your life trying to do things that God
has neither called nor equipped you to do. Your parents may think you’d make a
wonderful doctor or lawyer, but what does God think? What has He said about
you? God told Jeremiah, ‘…I am watching to see that My Word is fulfilled.’ If
God said it – He will back it up. If He didn’t – you’re on your own!
Too many people waste their
lives trying to do things that God never called and equipped them to do.
Identify the source of your vision! Look deep within yourself; who are you
trying to impress? Are you trying to prove to your ex-husband or ex-wife that
you can make it successfully without them? Or show your parents that you’re as
talented as your brother or sister? Or demonstrate to the world how you
overcame your roots and pulled yourself up by your bootstraps?
Your vision cannot be born out of unresolved
issues; that just breeds a need for control and recognition and dooms you to
failure. What’s more, if your vision is from God, you can’t afford to be
impatient like Abraham and try to accomplish it in your own strength and
ingenuity. God’s promises can never be fulfilled through fleshly effort. If
only Abraham had waited, he could have avoided a lot of heartache with Hagar
and Ishmael.
The Bible says, ‘The blessing
of the Lord makes one rich, and He adds no sorrow with it’ (Proverbs 10:22 NKJV).
No matter how long it takes, seek God’s will, wait on His timing, prepare
yourself thoroughly and move only when He says go!
Today’s Prayer
Heavenly Father, thank you for your Word today.
Lord thank you for giving me a wonderful insight on what to do and how to do
with the vision that set before me. Lord allow your Word be magnify and fulfilled
in my life as you have promise to me in Jeremiah for you knew the plans you
have for me plans for welfare to give me hope and a bright future. Lord strengthens
me to wait patiently in you so that I wouldn’t be mistaken on what I chose in
order to make a right decision to continue to hold on your promise and continue
to serve for your glory In Jesus’ Name. Amen!
