DAY 7 OF 7

You Are in God’s Plans

Even when things around you, or in you, are messed up, there is a remarkable truth that still reigns: Jesus created this world so that he could hang out with you. There is also a second truth that is just as remarkable: God doesn’t give up on his plans. And no matter what you are experiencing today, no matter what you are facing in this moment, it just so happens that you are in the blueprint of God’s plans for this planet. That is good news indeed. Good news is what Jesus is all about.

So turn to the Lord today. Call on his name. Ask him to recreate things around you and in you. This is what he wants for your life—it’s why he created you in the first place. It's why he came for you, and why he called out on your behalf on the cross. It is why he conquered sin and death. Jesus made you, he loves you, and he plans to do great things through you. Call on Jesus today.

Jesus, I call on your name today. Be with me in a renewed way. Make me right in your eyes. Make me mighty for your plans, and make me a light for this world that you love so much. Amen.

Difference Maker: Without placing any limits on yourself for a moment, imagine all that God wants for you. What desires has he placed on your heart that can make a positive impact on this world?

God wants to recreate you so that you will change this world. These devotionals, taken from the book, Make a Difference: 365 World-Changing Devotions, are meant to be more than personal quiet times. Time spent with Jesus should kick us into that world-changing gear where God operates. Each devotional contains reflections, verses, prayers, and a “Difference Maker” challenge where Jesus shapes us so that we can impact others.
