Let God transform you into a new person by changing the way you think. Then you will learn to know God’s will for you which is good and pleasing and perfect.
-Romans 12:2(NLT)
KNOWING GOD’S WILL
A poem and essay by ILMA
Have you any clue what God’s plan is for you?
If you are hungry for him, you will seek his truth
You need to constantly relate and bond with him
He will transform your ways and change how you think
Then you’ll learn to know God’s will which is pleasing
You will discern what is good and you’ll avoid sinning
His voice will be clear if you stay tuned to his word
Then you will heed his plans and overcome this world.

Many people including some Christians have no clue what God’s will is for their lives. There were many years of my Christian life that I didn’t know his plans for me either. I was too busy living according to the world’s standards and ways that I missed out on hearing his voice. How can I hear it when I stuffed my mind with so many toxic things and was too focused on myself? How can I feel his presence when I didn¬¬¬’t even have time to be quiet and relax or focus on him? How will I know his plans when I never consulted him for anything? The bible says that if you allow him to transform your thinking, you will learn his will.

Because we are united with Christ, we have received an inheritance from God, for he chose us in advance and he make everything work out according to his plan.
– Ephesians 1:11(NLT)
FOOLPROOF MASTER PLAN
A poem and essay by ILMA
When we decide to commit to Jesus Christ
We get to see the great plan for our lives
Because we are united with Christ when we believed
An inheritance from God is waiting to be received.
God chose us in advance to be part of his foolproof plan
He knows that we need salvation so he gave us his Son
Are you living your life according to his commands?
Why resist or turn your back on a foolproof master plan?
________________________________________
When building your dream home, wouldn’t you want to make sure that you get the best architect to layout visually your specified wish list? Wouldn’t you be very detailed and specific about every aspect of realizing your dream? You will definitely not just hire anybody who didn’t have experience in that field or you will compromise your dream home. Isn’t it the same with choosing the best blueprint for your life?
The bible says that when we gave our lives to Jesus, we are going to receive an inheritance from God, for he chose us in advance and he makes everything work out according to his plan. Why should you go against a foolproof master plan for your life?

PRAYER
Lord, help me never to resist your will for my life.

What will happen if you resist God’s foolproof plan?

But the Lord’s plans stand firm forever; his intentions can never be shaken.
Psalm 33:11(NLT)
GOD’S PLAN IS UNSHAKEABLE
A poem and essay by ILMA
There is only one plan that will be good for you
It is the Lord’s and only his that will get you through
Our creator is the one who knows what is best for you
Why do you continue to live out of his will or argue?
God’s plan is unshakeable and will stand firm endlessly
It is the best path to take so you can live victoriously
Why would you settle for a life that he didn’t plan?
He wants you to be triumphant that’s why he sent his Son.

I was a stage manager in the theater for over twenty years, it was very hard to give up control. As a stage manager, one has to foresee things that may happen that wasn’t planned. Stage managers must be able to think ahead and see many alternative solutions to possible problems even before they become problems. He or she must be decisive and multi-tasked and see things on a very objective perspective. Overseeing things and micromanaging is also imperative if you are in this profession. As a result of long years of working in this profession, I had trouble following God’s will for me because I always relied on my own judgment and decision making skills. The bible tells us that only God’s plan is foolproof and can never be shaken.

________________________________________
God has revealed to us his mysterious plan regarding Christ, a plan to fulfill his own good pleasure. And this is the plan: at the right time, he will bring everything together under the authority of Christ, everything in heaven and on earth. -Ephesians 1:9-10(NLT)
THE PLAN
A poem and essay by ILMA
Have you been planning your life all these years?
If you are a faithful believer, there’s nothing to fear
God has revealed his mysterious plan for all mankind
He wants us to be released from being blind.
At the right time, he will bring all under Christ
He has authority over all in heaven and all that has life
Are you lining up your own goals with God’s plan?
Are you following the example of his one and only Son?
________________________________________
Planning is an indispensable skill that a person can use in his or her life. Without planning, we will not go far. God gave me a gift for organizing and planning. Time management and setting priorities are the good aspects of planning. Without setting deadlines and knowing which comes first and last, our planning will not take us far. It is easy to plan alone but it is challenging to do it with someone else.
God knows “the plan”. We are all participants in his big plan for mankind. All things in heaven and on earth will bow down to Jesus.
PRAYER
Lord, never let me digress from “the plan.”
REFLECTION
What part has God given you in his plan and what’s your contribution to make it close to fulfillment?

Sept 23                                                                    The Power of God’s Word
No, the wisdom we speak of is the mystery of God-his plan that was previously hidden, even though he made it for our ultimate glory before the world began.
-1 Corinthians 2:7 (NLT)
BEFORE THE WORLD BEGAN
A poem and essay by ILMA
Did you know that God planned for you before the world began?
He already knew from the beginning what you would become
God the Father had great plans for you long before you came
He created you in his image so that like him, you will also reign.
He reveals the mystery of his plan to those who have faith in him
The Holy Spirit dwells in the hearts of all those who believe
If you dwell in him and seek the truth that comes from his word
He will fulfill all his promises and bring you victory over the world.
Are you feeling down and defeated? Has life been a struggle for you lately? Be glad for the Lord promised that he will bless those who are poor, grieving and those who hunger and thirst for justice. Before the world began, God had a master plan for you. This mystery is revealed to you through the Holy Spirit and written in the book of life, the bible.
PRAYER
Lord, make me hunger for your words every day.
REFLECTION
How are you responding to the legacy he gave you so that you can enjoy all the fullness of his promises?
