Topic: In Your Space

Highlights: 

While Jesus was teaching in the Temple, he called out, “Yes, you know me, and you know where I come from. But I’m not here on my own. The one who sent me is true, and you don’t know him. But I know him because I come from him, and he sent me to you.”

John 7:28‭-‬29 NLT

This message is true, God sent all His children who has dedicated their lives to Jesus Christ on assignment here on earth. As soon as we are born again, we have all embarked on a mission. Do not doubt your mission if you are already a child of God because while you were on that spot thinking if you are true to your calling, God is already fulfilling His plans although you may not know it. God is the Biggest God, The Master Planner, making things happen without informing the messenger the purpose of His decision. You are playing a role in God's big plan. Be happy about it. 

Jesus understood in John 7:28 that He was not here  on His own and acknowledged that God sent Him. This is a consolation for us all that once you are believer, you are not there on your own. God sent you and whatever you today remains in the mystery of His master plan. 

“The beasts of the field will glorify Me, The jackals and the ostriches, Because I have given waters in the wilderness And rivers in the wasteland, To give drink to My chosen people.

Isaiah 43:20 LSB

You did not choose me, but I chose you. I chose you to go and to make plenty of fruit. That kind of fruit will continue always. For that reason, the Father will help you with anything that you ask him. If you ask him in my name, he will do it for you.

John 15:16 EASY

The way God thinks is different. Being chosen by God to be His child must first be acknowledged by every child of God as a consolation that you have His seal on you as His own and that if you need any help in your journey, all you need is to ask and it will be done. But remember, that you are on a mission from the superior one and when you have a request, do not ask amiss. Secondly, you must not be afraid to accomplish your mission, even though you do not know fully in print what it is because you are God's ambassador. The one who sent you has already prepared you for the journey.

In your space, remember who you are and acknowledge the one who you represent. Do not be afraid and do not speak like a frail heart, knowing fully well that you must deliver the message of the sender (Luke 22:42). Do not carry out the mission in your plans, always seek God's approval on the right thing to do Matthew 6:33, Philippians 4:8. It is time to rejoice and console yourself that you know who you are and you are not doing it all alone. The Holy Spirit of God who designed the plan is already there with you in your space to accompany you to fulfill this mission. Joshua 1:9, John 16:14.

Wherever you are now in the stage of life's journey. Encourage yourself that God did sent you indeed and He will defend you at all cost. 

"And David was greatly distressed;.... but David encouraged himself in the LORD his God.

1 Samuel 30:6 KJV

Trust in the Lord your God to make you strong in your space today.

Prayer: Dear God, By the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, I am still carrying out the mission you sent me. Please Guide me and make me strong. In Jesus name.
