Blessed

DAY 9 OF 15

God has set up this world so that His followers, all of them, are uniquely different, yet unified. People are how God has chosen to operate in this world. God put His Spirit—not in one prominent leader—but in every single one of His followers. He has a unique relationship with each person who follows Him. He speaks to each person who follows Him. Of all the ways God could have set up the world to operate, this is the way He chose.

It’s hard to describe, but when Paul tried to capture and describe this in words, he used the illustration of a body. He wrote: So in Christ we, though many, form one body, and each member belongs to all the others. We have different gifts, according to the grace given to each of us (Romans 12:5-6). So, God doesn’t want you to go through life as an island. He is speaking to His friends, to the people in your life who know and follow Him. He is giving them insights into His heart, He downloads His thoughts into His people. So, since God is in His people, seek them out. Journey through life with Him and with Him in them. Your life will not be complete without them.

About this Plan

Blessed

Our view of blessed is often tethered to a continually changing spectrum—our circumstances. If life is good, in our view, we’re blessed. If life isn’t going well, in our view, we’re not blessed. But is our definition of blessed the same as God’s? We’ll look at how God defines “blessed.” It turns out, we’re very likely missing how “blessed” we all are—regardless of what’s going on around us.
