It is so fascinating how God has, in detail, planned out everything for your life.”You saw me before I was born. Every day of my life was recorded in your book. Every moment was laid out before a single day had passed.” (Psalm 139:16) How amazing is that, hey?
God is not surprised by you, your actions, what you are doing at the moment. And with that He is not disappointed either, He is joyful when He looks at you and rejoices over your being.
God has definitely has place for YOU. You are not a nobody, you are a chosen people. You are royal priests, a holy nation, God’s very own possession. God does not overlook anyone, everyone matters and are important to Him.
As I was reading in Numbers 1-2 today, it stood out to me how God really puts people in a certain place for a reason. When Israel had left Egypt and was wandering in the wilderness, God spoke to Moses about listing all the tribes and putting them in a certain spot when they camped. For example; the Levites were in charge of guarding the Tabernacle at all times, set it up and take it down. Compared to all the other tribes who were actually going out in war and doing other stuff God said to them, the Levites had to guard all the time. But God assigns us to different positions for a reason and I can just imagine if some of the people from the different tribes had tried to do someone elses task, it would have caused confusion, conflict, non-effectiveness and disunity.
In church life it is so easy to always wanting to do what we’re not doing right now. But I’ve realized one thing this last year; that it is properly exactly why God put me where I’m at, so that I can sort out my attitude. Heheh.. It’s not about me, I’m not that big a deal.
Be planted in the House of God and you shall flourish. God has a great significant plan for your life.
