Dear God-tracker
God-tracking is never denying that god has
plans for the good, in your life
If you have repented of
sin, acknowledged Christ as Lord and surrendered your life to serving God then
you have every right to call Jesus your personal Lord and Saviour. (If you have
not yet this then I encourage you to humbly admit your need of God’s
forgiveness and call on the name of Jesus, now.) I believe that we can refer to
Jesus as our personal Saviour,
because when we come to God through his blood, the Father gives us the Holy
Spirit. Therefore, through intimate fellowship with the Holy Spirit (who is
God) you gain a personal relationship with the Almighty omnipresent and
omniscient God. I dare say, therefore, as the senior partner in that
relationship, it’s fair to say that God has a plan for your life.
I believe that there are
only three entities that could ever have any influence upon your future. These
are: 1.) God, 2.) the devil, and 3.) you. Have no doubt, the devil, through his
minions, has a plan to derail the future of every believer though disaster and
disappointment. But even his plans are subject to God’s control. This we see in
the life of Job. You, on the other hand, have the freedom to make your own
plans in life. Unfortunately, you don’t know the future and so can only hope
that your plans will succeed. However, if you truly acknowledge Christ as Lord
then you have surrendered your life’s control and your future to his lordship. If
you still retain control over your plans then I would suggest that Christ is
not truly Lord of your life. In other words, as a true Believer, you have
chosen to acknowledge God in all your ways and thereby, have chosen to subject
your life’s plans to his course. Scripture is plain when it says that God has
plans to give a hope and a future to those who seek him.
There are some who dispute
this premise saying that it’s not true that God plans our lives. They insist
that disasters, bereavement and disappointment cannot be realised within plans
that God may devise. But, as I suggested, oftentimes man makes his own plans
without acknowledging God. The Bible is clear about this scenario, too. It
says, “The plans of the heart belong to man, but the answer
of the tongue is from the Lord. All the ways of a man are pure in his own eyes,
but the Lord weighs the spirit.” And, “The Lord has made everything for its
purpose, even the wicked for the day of trouble.” What these people forget is
the fact that all things work together for the good of those who love God and are called according to his purpose.
Indeed, even the bad stuff works out for our good by God’s plans, if we
continue to acknowledge him!
One biblical precedent to confirm this truth can be
found in the story of Paul traveling back to Jerusalem after his second
missionary trip. He was warned many times that he would be arrested in
Jerusalem. In the natural, Paul might have planned to avoid this tragedy but he
continued to acknowledge God and submit to his plans. Paul was arrested on
arriving in Jerusalem and ended up being taken to prison in Rome. On the way
there he was even shipwrecked and landed up on a little known island called,
Malta, Here he was instrumental in great revival. Also, while in Roman
imprisonment, Paul wrote several epistles that we have in the Bible,
influencing your life today.
God turned the bad into the good, according to the
plans he had for Paul. If Jesus is your personal Lord and Saviour then he will
do the same in your life, if you continue to acknowledge him and trust in his
plans for your future. This is God-tracking at its best.
God-tracking is never denying that God has plans for the good, in your
life.
Keep acknowledging God.

Don’t Give Up, Look Up!
Look up and Fix Your Eyes on Jesus!
I refuse to walk by my own reason and place my
trust in you by walking by faith and not be sight
Pray:
“My Lord I thank you for the plans you
have for my life. Help me to seek and track your plans every day. I believe
your word when it says that all things work out according to your purposes and
for my good; even the bad things. So, I surrender my life plans to you and
acknowledge you in all my ways. I place my trust in you alone to direct my
paths and work my future out for your glory. Thank you that you have helped me
through trying times in the past and will do so in the future, too. Reveal your
plans to me as I remain on-track with your word. I refuse to walk by my own
reason and place my trust in you alone, by walking by faith and not by sight.
Amen.”
