TOPIC: Your Life Is Carefully Planned By Go (Rhapsody of Realities 28 February 2024)
According as he hath chosen us in him before the foundation of the world, that we should be holy and without blame before him in love: Having predestinated us unto the adoption of children by Jesus Christ to himself, according to the good pleasure of his will, To the praise of the glory of his grace, wherein he hath made us accepted in the beloved (Ephesians 1:4-6).
Rhapsody Of Realities For Today’s MESSAGE:
Consider the tenses in what we just read! Look what we’ve got! It’s part of why you should never think of weakness, failure, defeat, poverty, or sickness. Your life was preordained and carefully planned by God for the praise of His grace. He planned to bring us up in Christ for the praise of the glory of His grace so that when people see us, they say, “Wow, God is great!”

It parallels something similar that the Bible says in Ephesians 2:10 AMPC: “For we are God’s [own] handiwork (His workmanship), recreated in Christ Jesus, [born anew] that we may do those good works which God predestined (planned) for us [taking paths which He prepared ahead of time], that we should walk in them [living the good life which He prearranged and made ready for us to live].” He preordained you for an excellent life—glory to God.
That means your life has no room for frustration, sadness, and gloom. There’s no need to be jealous of anyone. You were fashioned for an excellent life. He had everything about your life well thought out; none of us is a mistake.
Nothing about your life that God didn’t know was coming; no surprises. And all these are based on His excellent wisdom. Read our theme scripture further to the 8th verse, which says, “Wherein he hath abounded toward us in all wisdom and prudence.”
In other words, nothing about your life is outside the framework of God’s conception. He’s already done everything He needed to do to be a continual stream of testimonies for your life. Therefore, live joyfully every day, praising Him. Hallelujah!
PRAYER
Dear Father, I live joyfully every day, praising you, knowing that your nature is in me and your brand is on me. I’m fashioned for good works and to live the good life you have prearranged for me. There’s no room for frustration, sadness, and gloom in my life because I’m a superior being, created without any defects. I function perfectly and excellently for your glory. Amen.
