Greetings, people of God
There is a passage of the scripture that I so much like reading and reflecting in my mind every time.
Jeremiah 1:5 Before I formed thee in the belly I knew thee, and before thou camest forth out of the womb, I sanctified thee, and I ordained thee a prophet unto the nations.
This passage made me understand that God knew me before I was formed in my mother's womb; this is an amazing word to hear this morning, setting my ears to the reason why God created me. We were all ordained to be a voice to the generation, not an ordinary voice but a voice of redemption, a voice of deliverance, a voice of victory, a voice that will bring peace to the nation.
This was what God called Jeremiah to go to the nation to do. He doubted that he would be able to go because he was a child, but God assured him that he would be with his mouth and put his words in his mouth. He went, and God showed up for him, and he did as God commanded him.
All of us were created or ordained to do what Jeremiah did but some of us fear couldn't let us do as he did in his time.
In the Bible, Moses did the same thing: he doubted, he declined the calls of God upon his life, and it reached a point where he told God that he couldn't even talk; he didn't know how to talk. He gave excuses upon excuses to escape but God held him back from the work He called him to do. Moses finally took the children of Israel and delivered them as the lord commanded him.
When you are called to serve God, know right well that God is with you and he is closer to you. To Him that sent you, will be with you on every side.
The deeper level to this message is that our life is not an accident. It has been pre-planned, pre-ordained and resources has been allocated ahead of time. It would be better if we grew beyond complaining and rather ask God to show us the path through which our walk would lead us into the resources and milestones that will give us satisfaction.
Waking up everyday to see my life make meaning gives me assurance that the future is better. years ago, I could not imagine my life could be this better, I just learned to trust every phase God took me through and today, I am happier. God who did for me will do for everyone reading this post - Amen.
Thank you.
