“Indeed, the will of God will not place you where the grace of God cannot keep you. Remaining in the will of God may seem gruelling at times but his grace will suffice.”

2 Corinthians 12:9
And He said to me, “My grace is sufficient for you, for My strength is made perfect in weakness.”

"The will of God will not place you where the grace of God cannot keep you," said Derek Prince as I watched him on television. Indeed, as I always say, grace is God’s doing. The grace of God was demonstrated when he sent his Son, Jesus, to stand proxy for us for the wages of sin. God’s grace is demonstrated every day in us as he empowers us to labour abundantly. It is plain, the will of God is revealed in the grace of God. It was his will that Jesus died for our sins and it is his will that we follow his plans to serve him. His grace keeps us within the confines of his will.

Dwelling in the will of God is always a place of security and peace. However, dwelling in the will of God is seldom a comfortable place to live. Ask any missionary serving God in the field. Ask Apostle Peter or Apostle Paul. Better yet, Ask Jesus Christ. Jesus, confronted by the will of God in Gethsemane, prayed, “Abba, everything is possible for you. Take this cup from me. Yet not what I will, but what you will.”

Elisabeth Elliot said, “The will of God is never exactly what you expect it to be. It may seem to be much worse, but in the end, it's going to be a lot better and a lot bigger.” In Gethsemane, Jesus faced crucifixion. Facing the will of God was torturous for Jesus. Yet, we read that he looked beyond the crucifixion and perceived the joy of the resurrection, the accession and being seated at the right hand of God in glory. Grace is God’s doing and the God’s grace enabled Jesus to follow the will of God through the cross and on to victory.

Indeed, the will of God will not place you where the grace of God cannot keep you. Remaining in the will of God may seem gruelling at times but his grace will suffice. So, fix your gaze on Jesus, the author of your faith, and remain true to the will of God.

God-tracking is following the will of God empowered by grace.

“Grace is your doing so, help me to do your will by grace even when your will takes me to places of discomfort.”

“O sovereign Lord, your will is paramount to me. I desire to follow your plans and remain true to your will all my life even if your will is difficult. I know you are always with me so help me, O Lord, to face my Gethsemane by your grace. Grace is your doing so, help me to do your will by grace even when your will places me outside my comfort zone. Like Jesus, for the joy set before me, I look beyond my cross and see myself victorious on the other side. Amen.”

His Plans Endure

“His plans are always for your shalom, even when the contrary seems evident. His promise, spoken more than two and a half thousand years ago is still alive and real for you today.”

1 Peter 1:25
“But the word of the Lord endures forever.” Now this is the word which by the gospel was preached to you.

This motivational thought is based on God’s words to the prophet Jeremiah concerning the return of the Jews to Jerusalem after 70 years of Babylonian captivity. Jeremiah said, “This is what the Lord says, ‘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.’” Within its historical context, this prophecy was fulfilled when the Jews returned to Jerusalem in 538 B.C. However, since these words are recorded in the Bible, they remain active for anyone reading them today. That’s how scripture works. God’s word endures and by, his grace, you can hold it in your hands today.

I received a comment on a Facebook post this week where I quoted this Bible verse. The comment implied that this verse can be seen as resigning to the fact that, if God plans our lives, then we have no say in our future. Well, for me, I would gladly resign to God’s plans for my future. I know, by experience, that my plans seldom work out for the good. However, God is gracious. By that I mean, he never forces his will on us. We are always free to choose to go with his plans or reject his design for our lives. Therefore, I am free to plod along through life without acknowledging God and simply hope for the best, or I could surrender my will to his will in the knowledge that all things will work out for my good since I have been called according to his purpose. The surety of this fact lies in the reality that God knows my tomorrow; he is there already.

My encouragement to you today is, resign your life over to the plans that God knows he has for you. Acknowledge him in all your ways and trust that he will plan your life’s track. His plans are always for your shalom (peace, harmony, wholeness, completeness, prosperity, welfare and tranquillity), even when the contrary seems evident. This promise, spoken more than two and a half thousand years ago, is still alive and real for you today.

So, I stand on that promise: You know your plans for my life and will guide me in them according to your will if I seek you with all my heart and acknowledge you in all my ways.

A Place of Peace and Security

“Renew your mind by his word and you will discern that perfect will of God. Remain in God’s will and you will remain in a place of peace and security, making and an impact on your world.”

Romans 12:2
Do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewal of your mind, that by testing you may discern what is the will of God, what is good and acceptable and perfect.

This Christian motivational thought is concerned with helping the reader seek and track the will of God. God’s will is always a place of peace and security. If you remain in the centre of God’s will you will impact your world, something that the enemy of our souls, Satan, will do all he can to prevent.

Doreen was a tender child. She loved her mom and dad very much. The family lived on the East End of London during the time of the Second World War. Life was not easy. Sadly, when Doreen was 11-years old, her mom walked out on the family after her dad had an affair. The new woman in her father’s life was abusive and bullied Doreen badly. Gradually her esteem was so stripped away that she found herself lost to the evils of witchcraft. But God had a plan for this little life. Doreen later discovered the love and power of the Lord and gave her life to Jesus. Repenting of her black crafts Doreen discovered the peace and security of following God’s will for her life. Doreen Irvine tells her story in the book From Witchcraft to Christ, a book that has had a great impact on the world.

Psalm 143 is a prayer of another person who was bullied and abused, that of David. As a young man, David was anointed king of Israel. However, King Saul was still on the throne. Saul was not a nice guy and sought to take David’s life. David endured his abuse for many years during which time he wrote many psalms. But God had a plan for this young life, too. David walked in God’s will despite the opposition he faced. Here he found peace and security. When he was downcast, he placed his hope in the Lord. David had a profound impact on the world, becoming the greatest king Israel ever had and the descendent of Messiah.

Perhaps you find yourself in a predicament like Doreen Irvine or King David. It could be that you have also been being bullied or abused. You may have faced countless events in your life where the enemy of your soul, Satan, was intent on dragging you away from God’s will. God’s word for you today is, nothing can ever separate you from his love. His will is for you is to acknowledge him in all your ways. Do this and he will direct your life’s track according to his will. Seek first his kingdom principles and his goodness. Do this and he will provide all you’ll ever need for life and living. Renew your mind by his word and you will discern that perfect will of God. Remain in God’s will and you will remain in a place of peace and security, making and an impact on your world.

God-tracking is remaining in God’s will despite the opposition.

The Battle is the Lord’s

“Our God is high and exalted. He is our sovereign Majesty. His character is supreme, his power unlimited and his will, paramount. At the name of Jesus, every knee will bow! The name of the Lord is a strong tower. Run into it be safe.”

Luke 10:19
I have given you authority to trample on snakes and scorpions and to overcome all the power of the enemy; nothing will harm you.

While Jehoshaphat was king of Judah the Moabites and Ammonites waged war against him. This was a vast army intent on annihilating God’s people. Jehoshaphat resolved to inquire of the Lord and proclaimed a fast for all Judah. The people of Judah came together to seek help from the Lord. God’s word came to Jehoshaphat through the priest and prophet Jahaziel: “Do not be afraid or discouraged because of this vast army. For the battle is not yours, but God’s.” After talking with the people, Jehoshaphat called for praise and worship. Together they sang, “Give thanks to the Lord, for his love endures forever.” As they began to praise God, the Lord set ambushes against the enemy and it was defeated.

Your battle is the Lord’s! Listen, “No weapon forged against you will prevail, and you will refute every tongue that accuses you,” and “If God is for us, who can be against us?” The enemies of peace and security will rise. It’s a fact. However, the force behind these forces of man is Satan. The Scriptures tell us that our battle is not against flesh and blood but against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms. But we know that Jesus, our champion and commander in chief, personally overcame these authorities at Calvary when he made a public spectacle of them by triumphing over them through the cross. Halleluiah!

So, today, whatever war you’re facing, whatever forces are battling in the world, let us look to Jesus, our victor. Be still before the Lord and wait patiently for him. Don’t fret when people carry out their wicked schemes. Do not be afraid or discouraged because of this vast army. Praise and worship God in the face of the onslaught. Our God is high and exalted. He is our sovereign Majesty. His character is supreme, his power unlimited and his will, paramount. At the name of Jesus, every knee will bow! The name of the Lord is a strong tower. Run into it be safe. The battle is not yours, but God’s

LIVING BY HIS BLUEPRINT

“God has a great plan for your life. To follow God’s plan, you need to follow his blueprint. Jesus is God’s blueprint for your life.”

Galatians 2:20
I have been crucified with Christ. It is no longer I who live, but Christ who lives in me. And the life I now live in the flesh I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave himself for me.

Jesus is the blueprint of God for your life. The Bible says that we have all sinned and corrupted God’s perfect righteous image in which we were created. Even though God sent us the Law of Moses, it was rendered powerless in that it was weakened by our sinful nature. Therefore, he sent Jesus to reconcile us to himself. Because Jesus is God – God incarnate – he was and is sinless. Even so, God planned to allow Jesus to take the curse of sin when he died for us on the cross. You see, God ascribed your sin to Jesus so that, by repentance and faith, you could be ascribed God’s righteousness. In Christ, you become the righteousness of God. Jesus in you is God’s original blueprint for your life.

Many people think that they need to work really hard to earn God’s favour. This is impossible because all have sinned and fallen short of God’s goodness. God is so holy and righteous that we would need to become as he is to be right with him. But Jesus is already as God is because Jesus is God as a man. Therefore, to be right with God you and I need to intentionally turn from sin and live by faith in Christ. The moment we truly repent of sin we admit our failings and die to the old sinful nature; we are crucified with Christ. Then the moment you exercise faith in Christ you put confidence in God’s blueprint and live by his ascribed righteousness and purpose.

God has a great plan for your life. He loves you and desires for you to walk according to the plan he knows he has for you. To follow God’s plan, you need to follow his blueprint. Jesus is God’s blueprint for your life.

God-tracking is scrapping the old plan to live by God’s blueprint.

“Grace is God’s doing and God did it when he strengthened his Son to obey his will through the cross. And God will do it to strengthen you through your trial to follow God’s paramount will for your life.”

Hebrews 12:2
…looking to Jesus, the founder and perfecter of our faith, who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is seated at the right hand of the throne of God.

Our God is high and exalted. He is our sovereign Majesty. His character is supreme, his power unlimited and his will, paramount. Jesus, facing certain crucifixion at sunrise, sought the will of Father God in the garden. We often forget that Jesus was as much a man as you and I are.

It was past midnight as he prayed in Gethsemane. His friends had fallen asleep a stone’s throw away from where he knelt in the dust. He was under such strain that the capillaries in the skin of his face burst, causing blood to mix with sweat. “Ah, Abba! Would that I did not need to go through with this. If it is your will, please take this cup from me.” Jesus faced the cup of God’s wrath because of your sin and my sin. “Yet not what I will, but what you will.” With that, an angel from God stood by him to give him strength.

Jesus Christ is the Son of God – God in the flesh. Yet, in Gethsemane we see his humanity revealed. Indeed, he is Son of God and Son of Man. As a man, Jesus had a choice. He could have simply stood up, woken Peter, James and John, and gone back home to bed. This was one of the final temptations that Jesus faced. Yet, he resisted. The Son of Man cried out to God his Father but God’s will was firm, and, thank God, Jesus submitted to the will of God.

Some may say that Jesus showed weakness in Gethsemane. Indeed, his flesh might have appeared weak but his Spirit was strong. Through this account of Jesus in Gethsemane, we have a clear example of faith. Faith is the ingredient that took Jesus through his trial. And faith is the ingredient that will take you through yours.

We are saved by grace through faith. Grace is God’s doing and God did it when he strengthened his Son to obey his will through the cross. And God will do it to strengthen you through your trial to follow God’s paramount will for your life.

God-tracking is remaining true to God’s will by the strength of his might

PRAYING FROM A HEAVENLY VANTAGE POINT

“Because he died, you are mentioned in his will. Because he rose again, you have new life and are seated in Christ in heavenly places.”

1 John 5:15
And if we know that he hears us in whatever we ask, we know that we have the requests that we have asked of him.

While walking to post a letter this morning I was praying about certain need in my life. Like the next guy, I have a few ill family members and a selection of personal needs that I’m waiting on the Lord to provide. As I walked, I prayed for God to meet these needs. I know the Bible tells us that God hears our prayers but how certain can I be that I’m praying according to his will?

Jesus said, “Ask, and it will be given to you. For everyone who asks receives.” Yet in John’s first epistle we read, “If we ask anything according to his will he hears us.” In normal society, a person’s will is a written document specifying the conditions of the distribution of the inheritance at his death. Jesus left his disciples – you and me – an inheritance when he died. You’re in his will! The conditions of your inheritance are found in Jesus’ last will and testament – the New Testament, where his words are found. Therefore, to know if you are asking according to his will you need to ask according to his Word. God’s Word is God’s will.

So, Jesus died and left you an inheritance in his will. Part of that inheritance is forgiveness of sins and new life. However, this new life would be of no use to us if Jesus was dead. Thankfully (and this is the really good news) Jesus did not remain dead. Three days after he died, Jesus came alive again. Because he died, you are mentioned in his will. Because he rose again, you have new life and are seated in Christ in heavenly places. So, when you ask according to his Word you are asking according to his will. And because you are seated in Christ you are praying from a heavenly vantage point; you approach the throne of God in Christ.

Your authority for answered prayer; your credentials to pray according to the will of God is to pray with confidence, according to his Word, in Christ and Christ in you.

God-tracking is praying with confidence from a heavenly vantage point.

“God’s purposes for you are deliberately and exclusively designed by God to fit only you. You see, with God, one size does not fit all.”

Psalm 139:1
O Lord, you have searched me and known me!

When my children were small, they enjoyed an array of toys from dolls and toy cars to intricate toddlers’ puzzles. I remember one puzzle in particular. It consisted of a sixteen-sided plastic form with various irregularly shaped holes in each side; there was a star shape, a square shape, a triangle shape and so on. With the toy came sixteen irregularly shaped plastic blocks, each corresponding to a different hole. The idea was for the toddler to find the correct shaped block for the appropriate hole and push it through. It was great fun, especially for dad! However, I would often find my little girl or little boy trying very hard to force a round block into a square hole or a star block into a triangular hole. They would try to inject the block into the hole every which way until it finally dawned on them to try a different hole. Eventually with a range of grunts and some whining the correct block would find its way into the correct hole.

 Have you ever felt like a misfit in life? Have you ever tried to do a job or explore a relationship that just did not seem to suit your skills or your character? The popular saying goes: “You’re trying to be a square peg in a round hole.” So many times, I have found myself in situations like this. For instance, when I lived in South Africa back in the 1980s, I remember leaving one job for another. At the time, I worked in the IT industry as a network controller. However, in my quest to find the proverbial greener grass on the other side of the hill, I left one company to join another as a systems programmer. Bad move. I was just not cut out for the job. Apart from the fact that I had minimal systems programming experience, my new company was primarily an Afrikaans speaking company and, dare I say, my command of the language left much to be desired. As it turned out I found myself at loggerheads with management trying to persuade them that I really did know what I was doing… in Afrikaans, no less. Needless to say, I finally resigned and moved back into computer networking, in a new company. You see, I was trying to be a square peg in a round hole.

 Dear GodTracker, as you seek to track God’s plans for life remember that God knows what’s best for you. In fact, he knows everything about you. He knows whether you are a square or a round peg; he knows whether you are a triangle or a star and as long as you continue to acknowledge him and look for his will in all you do, he will fit you into your appropriately shaped hole. Jesus told us to seek first God’s kingdom (that is his modus operandi and his principles in life) and his righteousness then all else will be added to us as well. God loves you so much that he will always provide for and guide you into the appropriately shaped opportunities for your life, provided you put him first.

God-tracking is following God’s exclusive plan for you

SO, DON’T GIVE UP, LOOK UP & PRAY

Help me, Lord, to find your exclusive, deliberate plan for my life

“Dear God, you are my Lord and my guide. I submit my life entirely to your will and purposes. Forgive me for taking my eyes off your holy plans for me and attempting to run my life my way. I have tried to be a square peg in a round hole for too long and have come undone. Help me, Lord, to find your exclusive, deliberate plan for my life. Help me to find the right hole to slot into, that my family and I will be blessed, protected and provided for; that I may please you by fulfilling your call upon my life. To your glory, I pray. Amen.”
