Before My
Birth
God knew
me before I was born and He already had a plan for me.
“The word
of the Lord came to me, "Before I formed you in the womb I knew you,
before you were born I set you apart ...” (Jeremiah 1:5)
There’s a
book written In Heaven about my life.
“For you formed my inward parts; you knitted me together in my mother's
womb. I praise you, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made. Wonderful are your
works my soul knows it very well. My frame was not hidden from you, when I was
being made in secret, intricately woven in the depths of the earth. Your eyes
saw my unformed substance; in your book were written, every one of them, the
days that were formed for me, when as yet there was none of them. (Psalm
139:13).
Ever since
I was born, my soul wanted to be with God.
"From birth I was cast on you; from my mother’s womb
you have been my God." (Psalm 22:10)
My life
and existence has depended on God since I was born.
“From birth I have relied on him; he brought me forth
from my mother's womb. I will ever praise him, my God and Heavenly Father.”
(Psalm 71:6).
“I will instruct you and teach you in the way you should
go; I will counsel you with my eye upon you.” (Psalm 32:8)
God has planned
good works for me to do in my life through Jesus.
“I am God's workmanship and masterpiece, created in
Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for me to do.”
(Ephesians 2:10).
“For I know the plans I have for you, declares the
Lord, plans for welfare and not for evil, to give you a future and a hope.” (Jeremiah 29:11)
“Many are the plans in the mind of a man, but it is the
purpose of the Lord that will stand.”
(Proverbs 19:21)
“Commit your work to the Lord, and your plans will be
established. The Lord has made everything for its purpose, …” (Proverbs 16:3)
Please
know that God has prepared a WAY for you. His name is Jesus.
“I will trust in the Lord with all my heart; I will lean
not on my own understanding; in all my ways I will acknowledge you, Lord,
knowing, since I was in my mother’s womb, you have straightened the path for me.”
(Proverbs 3:5-6).
“Remember not the former things, nor consider the things of
old. Behold, I am doing a new thing; now it springs forth, do you not
perceive it? I will make a way in the wilderness and rivers in the desert.” (Isaiah 4318)
