“THE PERFECT PLAN OF GOD”
“I am convinced of this: he who began such a good work in you will perfect it until the day of Jesus Christ.”
(Philippians 1: 6)
“GOD has a perfect plan for your life.” We’ve all heard that phrase, but I don’t think many of us really believe it. Maybe it’s the word “Perfect” that worries us. No one is perfect and the idea of being perfect only adds pressure and stress to our lives. Perfection seems impossible. And guess what? … It is.
GOD’s plan is not perfect because we are perfect. The plan is perfect because GOD is the one who designed it. Perfection comes from Him and only He is perfect. He knows us better than we know ourselves and He has designed and implemented a plan specifically designed for our lives Paul tells us in Philippians 1: 6 that GOD saved us and began a good work in us, and His work in us will come to completion.
While we think that GOD is working in us, we must remind ourselves how imperfect we are, GOD is perfection. Nothing we can ever do will be enough to satisfy the perfection of GOD.
Only JESUS, the only perfect one, is good enough. And because we are in CHRIST, God’s perfect plan is possible for us.
Dear LORD, we know that we are not perfect, but fortunately Your plan for us depends on Your perfection, not ours. Thank you very much for developing a good work within us. We hope you complete it, and make us deserving of Your great blessings. In the name of JESUS. Amen and Amen.
