Word of the Day
Seeing that I know the plans I have for you, do you think I am surprised by anything or that I would withhold them from you? Nothing takes Me by surprise and nothing happens in your life by just “Happenstance.” This can never be. I am always revealing. Are you always listening? I hope so. I have so much to say. All I need is a listening ear.
Like chains of DNA are connected with intricate complexity so are the strands of DNA which make up the purposed expression of your life. One thing connects to another and then to another. Sometimes it is hard to discern where one begins and where another ends. Overlapping is a phenomena of the Kingdom understood by very few. It is a mystery I reveal to those who saturate themselves in My presence—to those who are listening.
As soon as you think you have discovered a connecting factor in some aspect of your life—as soon as you think you have it figured out, new strands of DNA are discovered and build in different directions. They form a complex structure which displays My endless creative nature. These must be discerned in the Spirit, not in the natural man. If you are hurrying out ahead of Me, these things have a tendency to be missed and the full expression of My beauty will not be discerned. Patience is a must in order to experience the fullness of My plans for you. Trust Me to work all things out for your good.
Beloved, I will reveal all in the fullness of time, unveiling My plans for you as we go along the way. You will miss the unfolding if you run ahead. Charging ahead will cause backtracking and waste the precious time it takes to arrive. Even now, remember the tenderness and sweetness of My presence in the quiet place.
Remember those moments it felt as if the air you breathed was saturated with My presence and return to our secret place. Put all hindering thoughts aside. Come, you will not be disappointed. I am breathing the breath of new life over you this very day. Listen to My heart speaking and answer when it calls. Stop, close your eyes. I am breathing the breath of heaven on you right now. Receive.
For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the LORD, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future” (Jeremiah 29:11 NIV)
Prayer
Lord, You are the keeper of every plan of destiny in my life. Before I was born, strands of my purpose were contained in the DNA of Your heart. There is a strand of DNA just for me to become, to fulfill. Like the great building blocks of mankind, You have formulated one uniquely made just for me. Each moment of my life overlaps the other and creates intricate beauty in ways not understood by man. You work all things for my benefit, and for the benefit of Your Kingdom. I am an intrinsic part of Your DNA and an expression of Your heart in the earth.
I wait patiently on You in all I do and say. My heart is attentive to Your voice and does not follow another. In doing this, I am not tempted to run ahead. The plans You have for my live are unfolding day by day and I will wait and do, wait and do. I will wait and do in the midst of the breath of heaven. Breathe on me today. Amen
Reflect and Journal
- Have you ever felt somehow the situations of your life have taken God by surprise or go unobserved by Him?
- Reflect on how this day is truly a doorway to tomorrows in your life and the potential miracles they hold? How does or should this affect your actions and responses in reference to God and other people?
- Take some time to reflect on the sweeter moments you have had with Him and the breath of life He imparted. Breathe Him in and let His creative power transform you once again.
