For whom he did foreknow, he also did predestinate to be conformed to the image of his Son, that he might be the firstborn among many brethren. Moreover whom he did predestinate, them he also called: and whom he called, them he also justified: and whom he justified, them he also glorified (Romans 8:29-30).
God lives in eternity and therefore knows the future. What we call future isnβt future to Him, but history. He already knows everything about tomorrow, and can help you fix any mistake youβd have made, if youβd ask Him. Your tomorrow isnβt a surprise to Him, because Heβs the eternal God: βBefore the mountains were brought forth, or ever thou hadst formed the earth and the world, even from everlasting to everlasting, thou art Godβ (Psalm 90:2).
The Bible says He foreknew, and predestined you to be conformed to the likeness of His Son, Jesus. He prearranged your life for glory and excellence. Consider what He said to Jeremiah: βBefore I formed thee in the belly I knew thee; and before thou camest forth out of the womb I sanctified thee, and I ordained thee a prophet unto the nationsβ (Jeremiah 1:5). This isnβt just for Jeremiah; God knew you were coming and planned beforehand for you to journey in preordained pathways.
Ephesians 2:10 AMPC says, βFor we are Godβs [own] handiwork (His workmanship), recreated in Christ Jesus, [born anew] that we may do those good works which God predestined (planned beforehand) for us [taking paths which He prepared ahead of time], that we should walk in them [living the good life which He prearranged and made ready for us to live]. Predestination is at work in you. God made very specific plans for your life, and as you fellowship with Him through the Word and the Holy Ghost, Heβll guide you in the path of your destiny in Him.
1 Peter 2:9 lets us know that youβve been called, predestined to a life of glory and excellence; not to sickness, weakness, poverty and defeat. Yours is the transcendent life in Christ. Youβre not a nobody; your life is for the glory of God. Hallelujah!
PRAYER
Dear Father, I thank you for ordaining me to a life of glory, grace and favour. Iβm walking in preordained pathways; therefore, none of my steps shall slide. Iβm triumphant all the way. Thank you for establishing righteousness, me in granting me wisdom to do your will at all times, in Jesusβ Name. Amen.
