GOD'S PLAN FOR YOUR LIFE

(15-11-2009)


*Ephesians 2:10 You are God's handiwork. God created you for good works. He planned your life before you were born. God wants us to leave according to the plan he has for us.


He called me to be his servant. He called me to establish Jesus The Saviour church here in Cape Town. He called some of you to be part of this vision.


*Jeremiah 1:5 God knew you even before you were formed in your mother's womb. He has appointed us for a purpose. Let's fulfil his plan for our lives.

Let's build in line with the plan. Don't build skew.


*Ephesians 1:4,5,11 Actually God chose us before the foundation of the world. He makes out everything to work according to his plan.


*Jeremiah 29:11 God has good plans for us. Even though the children of Israel were in captivity, God had not forgotten them. God has not forgotten about you.


* 1Chronicles 4:9-10 Jabez (sorrow maker/pain) did not allow his past to determine his future. He prayed that evil and hurt (pain) should be far from him; and God granted him his request.

1Chronicles 4:9-10 "Enlarge my boarder."

Isaiah 54:2 Enlarge the place of your tent, lengthen your cords. Dream big. Believe big. God is a big God. Do not limit yourself.



*Ecclesiastes 12:13 (Ampl.) Fear God and keep his commandments – this is the original purpose of man's creation.



Each one of us is unique and special. You are an original. You are nobody's copy. Copies are cheap.

We have different gifts and different talents.


The life of Moses:

Exodus 2:1-10, 1:15-22 God had a purpose with Moses' life. He ensured that Moses would be protected until he fulfilled his task as the deliverer. His mother was determined to save his baby. Pharaoh's daughter even paid her to raise her own baby. She called him Moses, but God saw him as the deliverer.


Different talents

Matthew 25:14-30

We have been given different talents. We should be faithful in the talents and gifts that God gave us.

I am looking forward to hearing the words, "Well done good and faithful servant".

*2Timothy 4:6-7 At the end of our lives we should be fulfilled and should have finished our course like Paul
