Therefore, dear GodTracker, may we look through trials and tribulations and fix our eyes on Jesus who, for the joy set before him endured the cross, despising the shame, and was seated at the right hand of the throne of God.”

Jeremiah 29:11
For I know the plans I have for you, declares the Lord

The people of God had fallen away from the purposes of God by contaminating their lifestyles with the trends of their unbelieving neighbours. They compromised their worship with idolatry. They had opened the door to the real enemy of God’s purposes – the devil – and given him the opportunity to wreak havoc with their future as a nation. As a result, they were conquered by the Babylonians who dragged them into captivity for 70 years. At the advent of this calamity, God gave the prophet Jeremiah a word. He said, “When seventy years are completed for Babylon, I will visit you, and I will fulfil to you my promise and bring you back to this place. For I know the plans I have for you, declares the Lord, plans for welfare and not for evil, to give you a future and a hope.”

This devotional has at its core the concept of tracking the plans and purposes of God. Indeed, God does have a plan for you and me, as we acknowledge him in all our ways. I have discovered the truth of this statement is, it is God who knows these plans but we don’t; not until he reveals them to us. Therefore, for us to walk in the plans God knows he has for us, we need to seek and track his plans in all we do. Hence, God-tracking. As you seek and track the plans God knows he has for you by acknowledging him in all your ways, you become a GodTracker.

God’s plans for us, and the Body of Christ at large, are to bless us and cause us to enjoy a thriving future. However, as with Jeremiah’s compatriots, sometimes the compromise of integrity creeps into our lifestyles. Sadly, I believe calamities like Covid-19 occur because of this compromise. But God uses calamity to soften our hearts and, in repentance, to bring our focus back to him, the author of our faith.

Therefore, dear GodTracker, may we look through trials and tribulations and fix our eyes on Jesus who, for the joy set before him endured the cross, despising the shame, and was seated at the right hand of the throne of God. Just as the Israelites returned to rebuild Jerusalem and prosper, so the Lord plans to restore your hope for a flourishing future.

God-tracking is remaining focused on the author of faith

SO, DON’T GIVE UP, LOOK UP & PRAY

I now fix my eyes on Jesus who is the author of my life’s story and believe you will restore my hope for a flourishing future

“Dear Lord, thank you for the promise that you have a plan for my prosperity. Right now, things look a little bleak. But I know you know what lies ahead so I acknowledge you in all my ways and trust that you will direct my path according to the plans you know you have for me. Dear Lord, I repent of any compromise of my faith and morals. I repent of any opportunity I have given the devil, at any time in my life. I now fix my eyes on Jesus who is the author of my life’s story and believe you will restore my hope for a flourishing future. In Jesus’ name, I pray. Amen.”

GOD-TRACKING IS DELIGHTING IN THE GOD OF YOUR SUCCESS

The Lord desires to grant you the desires of your heart. He has great and wonderful plans for you –plans for welfare and not for evil, to give you a future and a hope.”

Psalm 37:4
Delight yourself in the Lord, and he will give you the desires of your heart.

C.S. Lewis notes how believers often underestimate the full riches God has for His children. “If we consider the staggering nature of the rewards promised in the Gospels, it would seem that our Lord finds our desires, not too strong, but too weak. We are half-hearted creatures, like an ignorant child who wants to go on making mud pies in a slum because he cannot imagine what is meant by the offer of a holiday at the sea.”

In Psalm 37 we read that if we take pleasure in seeking the presence of God then he will grant us the desires of our hearts. If you know Christ as Saviour then you are seated in him in heavenly places; you have a vantage point in Christ! And in the Torah God says, “God will make you abundantly prosperous in all the work of your hand.” In the Proverbs we’re reminded that if we commit our work to the Lord our plans will be established. And finally, in Hebrews 11 God’s Word tells us that he will reward us if we seek him in faith.

The Lord desires to grant you the desires of your heart. He has great and wonderful plans for you –plans for your welfare and not for evil, to give you a future and a hope. God is your Father, the Father of heavenly lights from whom every good perfect gift comes. Your Lord desires for you to be successful in all you do. However, there is one condition: delight yourself in him.

So, I delight in you and seek your plans for my life wherever they may lead

“Dear Father God, thank you for the promises of your word that you desire to grant me my desires and meet my needs. I believe your Word is your will and I thank you, O Lord, that I read in your Word that it is your intension to reward my faith as I seek you. Therefore, I wholeheartedly put my faith in your exceedingly great reward, the greatest of which is eternal life through Jesus Christ my Lord. So, I delight in you and seek your plans for my life wherever they may lead. Amen.”

GOD-TRACKING IS PATIENTLY WAITING FOR GOD TO CLEAR THE BOTTLENECKS OF LIFE

Psalm 47:7
Be still before the LORD and wait patiently for him;

Subscribe to GodTracker HERE
Karen and I were trekking home after a tremendous few days at a Christian conference. We were driving southbound on a main motorway in the British West Midlands. Our side of the motorway was free flowing, thankfully, but as we drove on we noticed a large articulated truck that had pulled off the carriageway on the opposite side of the road. The large vehicle had endured a blowout and its crew were changing the wheel. Due the size of the vehicle and the hazard it presented to other road users, the police had cordoned off two lanes, resulting in all the upcoming traffic being directed into one lane past the broken-down truck. Consequently, the traffic had backed up for miles leading up to the bottleneck at the road incident. Still charged from the touch of the Holy Spirit at the conference, I had a flash of inspiration cross my mind. The Lord dropped a word into my heart: “This is where so many of my children find themselves these days, backed up at a bottleneck in life.”

I know from my own walk along God’s track of life, that we, as 21st century Christians, become so involved and committed to myriad activities that, when we come across a little hiccup along the motorways of life, we become backed up and slow down like cars in a traffic jam. Consequently, we become stressed out, anxious and impatient. By our own reasoning we think we have everything under our control so when the unforeseen happens, we end up blaming others or God for messing up the free flow of our lives. But, God often uses the unforeseen little holdups in life to force us to stop and survey our journey. It’s when the unforeseen little holdups happen that we notice the scenery for the first time. And it’s often when the unforeseen little holdups happen that God begins to thin our lives out and teach a crucial lesson in patience and endurance. Our God is a patient God.

God-tracking is patiently waiting for God to clear the bottlenecks of life

DON’T GIVE UP, LOOK UP & PRAY

I give back to you all that you have given me. Dear Lord, do with my life what you would.
“O Lord, I feel as though my life has come to grinding halt, because of this obstacle I face. Forgive me for being impatient in waiting for you to clear the way forward. I realise now that I may have been committed to too many activates, some of which were not in your plan for my life. Thin my life out, O Lord, and help me to walk patiently in faith that you will direct my every step, as I acknowledge you in all my ways. Amen.”
