What’s Your Plan?

Most people will go through life without having ever taken the time to really forge a PLAN FOR THEIR LIFE. What do I want to do with the rest of my life? Some say, well, I don’t plan anything because GOD IS IN CHARGE OF MY LIFE.
If Jesus would have lived on this earth with such an attitude, you and I would spend eternity in everlasting hell fire.
I am so thankful that God the Father has a plan for His entire creation, and especially for me personally.
To find the Biblical answer to what God’s plan is for you and me, we need to turn to John 1:1-14.
Let’s look at the Christian landscape of today, we see similar patterns.
People today can get very excited about Jesus if they see
• That he can benefit them
• That everything will be going great if they “accept Him”
• That He can fix them and solve their problems
What will happen, what will be their plan when Jesus DOES NOT HEAL THEM, DOES NOT GIVE THEM THE BENEFITS THEY DEMAND, DOES NOT FIX THEIR PROBLEMS AND DOES NOT HEAL THEIR MARRIAGE?
The statement: HE WHO HAS SEEN ME HAS SEEN THE FATHER… forms the foundation of all Christian talk about God. It is the incarnation that makes this possible. Excitement about Christmas and that Jesus was born in Bethlehem 2000 years ago, does not mean that we UNDERSTAND WHO GOD IS.
Listen, God’s supreme revelation of Himself is the incarnation, the Word becoming flesh and speaking to us at our level of UNDERSTANDING.

God’s Plan Is On Schedule

Thousand of years, people dreaming about the moment when things would change. But they will not change by human hand. God has revealed in His book that there is a specific year, a specific month, a very precise day and hour, when HE will break His silence, when He will fulfill all His purposes concerning men and the world. HIS PLAN IS RIGHT ON SCHEDULE.
The day is coming when the Lord Jesus Christ will return and establish His earthly kingdom. The day is coming, and is right on schedule, when Jesus will rule righteously, with a rod of iron and the earth will be full of the knowledge of the Lord as the waters cover the sea (Isaiah 11:9)
A Biblical mystery refers to truths God has hidden and will reveal in His time. This mystery involves the salvation of those who trust in Jesus Christ alone, it involves our place in Christ’s glorious kingdom. It involves the judgment of all sinners and demons.
This chapter reminds us once again of our responsibility to warn the world of that day. Remember, God’s plan is on schedule. He will not wait much longer.
