Can You Know What The Future Of Your Personal Life Will Be?

02 Sep

No.

Actually I really believe that is a protection device for each and every one of us.

Sure there are predictions such as I am covered by the Blood of the Lamb and will be with Jesus forever.  God is with me know matter what.  These are both true, but to predict even that you will be eating dinner tonight in your house isn’t guaranteed.

We don’t know what the future brings, all we can do is prepare.

The unsaved prepare by planning their life as if they will be here tomorrow, the next day, and some until they are 100 years old, although nobody ever puts much thought into that, because it isn’t that appealing.  Many of them also live like they got to get it all in before they die.  In essence they’re running a race just like Christians are supposed to.  However, this one is for themselves.

As Christians we should be preparing to be the best servants we can for our Lord.  If we don’t know what to expect for the future, how should we prepare?

One obvious way and one that you will hear from me until I can’t remind you no more, is reading and studying the Word of God.  To be a help at anything you do, knowledge is a must.  Two, allow God to use you.

2 Timothy 4:2 – 2Preach the Word; be prepared in season and out of season; correct, rebuke and encourage—with great patience and careful instruction.

That verse has both prepare and execute in it.  When it is used with the scripture before and those after, there’s potential for about 10 posts, but we’ll stay on task.

Once we prepare and allow God to use us, we simply need to trust in the Lord.  Listen to His voice.

You remember up above when I told you it is a protection device not to know the future?  If we as fallen humans try to make things right, we would mess them up and can even detour the efforts.

That’s why it is important to hear His voice, prepare, trust and obey, and know that He is God.
