Bible Reading: Matthew 6:10, Romans 12:2, 1 Thessalonians 4:3, Jeremiah 29:11
Memory Verse: Therefore do not be unwise, but understand what the will of the Lord is. Ephesians 5:17 (NKJV)
One prayer you must pray which will secure your destiny in God is to always pray to be at the centre of the will of God for your life. This is one prayer point that will secure your eternal destiny even though it is could be hard on your flesh. It is those who truly want to come under the Lordship and government of the Lord who pray to know and do His will. It is one thing to be saved, and it is another thing to come under God’s Lordship where you do as He commands whether you like it or not.
Take note: The devil, the father of all liars will always want you to believe that you are better off outside the will of God so that you may spend the latter part of your life in regret and pain of unfulfilled purpose. Many walk through life as it pleases them forgetting there is a volume of book written before the foundation of the earth about the path they should follow. Do you know? Who you are to marry, where you must live, the course you must study, how many children you should have, the department you are to serve God, etc, are all written in the will of God for your life. You receive not, because you ask not.
Many stumble and fumble in life moving from one job to another, one city to another city, one nation to another nation seeking fulfillment because they don’t dare to ask, “What is your plan for my life, Lord?”. Should petrol business be the hot cake, you see many rush into the business. It worked for your friend doesn’t mean it will work for you. Brethren, what is God saying concerning your life? One way to know your career path is to check your passion, your talents and your gifts.
However, sometimes all of these checks may fail you because in God’s agenda for His beloved, there are treasures hidden in secret places. Hence, you must prayerfully seek for His will. That is why we pray enquiry prayers, which is why we fast that we may press into Zion and download the template for our continuous relevance on earth; that we may dance to the original manuscript for our lives; that we may know what is uppermost in His heart. Dare to ask God for His will for your life, career, ministry, business, etc. No matter your age, you can always ask God today.
Quote: There are no ‘if’s’ in God’s world; and there is no place that is safer than other places. The center of His will is our only safety – let us pray that we may always know it! – Corrie Ten Boom.
Prophetic Decree: Receive the Spirit of understanding, in Jesus name.
