Gods Perfect Plan Tuesday, June 24, 2014 “They passed through the Phrygian and Galatian region, having been forbidden by the Holy Spirit to speak the word in Asia…A vision appeared to Paul in the night: a man of Macedonia was standing and appealing to him, and saying, ‘Come over to Macedonia and help us.’” – Acts 16:6-9 NASB It would have been easy for Paul to assume he knew God’s will or simply could follow his own instincts. But throughout his life, Paul had come to realize God had a special plan—just for him! How else could Paul explain his extraordinary journey through life? As a boy, he had come to Jerusalem to be trained by the greatest minds in Judaism. Jesus had appeared to him and called him, even though he zealously had persecuted Christians. Paul realized this all had been part of God’s plan, a plan that unfolded day by day. He learned to be sensitive to the Spirit, always seeking to let Him show the way. This commitment was never clearer than when he and his companions traveled through Phrygia and Galatia. For reasons they must not have understood, God would not let them preach there. Then, suddenly, in Troas, Paul received a vision: They were being called to Macedonia. This was the right place and the right time. We see the importance of Paul’s determination to go only to the right place and do the right thing at the right time. Because of this commitment, he was ready to take the Gospel to Europe. Do you believe that God has a plan for your life? A right place for you? A right time for His blessings to flow? Make sure to commit yourself to seeking His plan and doing His will. Submit your life to Him. Be ready to go wherever He leads you. Todays Inspiration Prayer Father, I commit my life to You. Keep me from going down the wrong paths. I want to be in the center of Your will. Guide me. Use me to accomplish Your purposes. In Jesus’ name. Amen.
