When Plan B is really Plan A
Published 8:49 pm Tuesday, August 30, 2016
What has come to me in a profound way is what we assume is a second chance at life or another opportunity to make a bad situation good is in fact God’s original purpose and destination for us who love him.
I am not making excuses or a license to sin, but I see like never before and understand the scripture God knows the end from the beginning. (Isa. 46:10)
We are not privy to the information, but God is and has determined the bounds of our habitation. (Acts 17:26)
Prophecy is actually history being written in advance.
Look at Abraham for example, for most of his adult life he had to walk around feeling mocked with a name meaning ‘father of many nations.’
When asked how many kids he had, he would always have to say none.
For whatever reason in God’s perspective, he and Sarah’s attempt to help God out with Plan B was in actuality Plan A.
I did not see the end from the beginning before the morning stars sang about what Job wrote but God did.
He saw the 12 sons of Ishmael as well as the 12 sons of Isaac who would map out this end time landscape and drama.
The original fall in the Garden of Eden by our original grandparents was also Plan A because there would never have been a need for a Savior without a fall from mankind.
Do you think Jesus our Lord’s coming is all accidental or circumstantial?
Absolutely not.
Before the foundations of the world the Lamb for sinners was slain in the mind of God. (Rev. 13:8)
Nine years ago I stood at the crossroads of life like a deer caught in the headlights.
That unnamed evangelist that I do not know to this day had is arm around me and read my mail. He did not know me, and I did not know him either.
When he had my attention by so doing, he proceeded to tell me I had been and was going to continue to be groomed for a worldwide ministry.
He said my near 40-year pulpit ministry would be eclipsed, and I would be able to help hurting and dying souls all over this world.
He said I would be placed where no others would be able to go because what I consider my choice to be my Plan B for my life was in actuality Plan A being carried out.
I am not at liberty at this time to divulge the details, but last night a call came from a gentleman that I met July 2015 that is putting the last piece in place to this puzzle of prophetic utterance in the summer of 2007.
Folks, you can’t figure God out or manipulate Him either and for sure make any of this up.
When you or I surrender our will into his will it opens up doors no man can open or shut.
Sure, you and I can go directly in opposition against God’s will for our lives as Abraham and Sarah, but in reality he already knew we would mess up and all the follow through as well was one packaged deal.
Like they, we usually take the scenic route and come up the rough side of the mountain due to our choices that include sinful miscues.
We, like Moses and the church in the wilderness, wander for decades until the Jordan River opens into the Promised Land, but our Plan B was God’s Plan A all along.
I feel to share this information with you, who like me for so long struggle with bad choices from your own doing or those of others that have affected you. If you love the Lord and have made peace with Him by repenting with Godly sorrow and not just words, stand still and see the salvation of the Lord soon to come.
I say soon, because the end of all is upon us and God is going to do a quick work.
Almost daily now I hear of men and women of faith coming into good fortune and opportunities as never before because God is opening doors as never before.
He has a game plan that began way before time started and that includes you and I who are not ashamed to call Him our God.
What comes cascading down over me right now is Daniel’s prophetic utterance for these days:
“And such as do wickedly against the covenant shall he corrupt by flatteries: but the people that do know their God shall be strong, and do exploits.” Dan. 11; 32 (KJV)
The bad is going to get worse and the Godly are going to get strong.
