Text: For I know the plans that I have for you, declares the LORD, plans for well-being, and not for calamity, in order to give you a future and a hope.” Jeremiah 29:11
In the human mind the future is five, ten or twenty years from now. But in actual sense the future is today.
Today is the future we referred to several years ago. Therefore building the future begins from today. What we’ll meet in the future will be a function of what we are doing today. The investment of today will be the harvest of the future. There are things we are doing today that may not be yielding so much result but as we keep at it a future is already been built.
2 We also build the future as we build our faith. The capacity to handle life and mount above obstacles will be determined by the depth of our faith. It’s easier to develop our faith in a time of “peace” than to wait until a “crisis” breaks out. Building your faith is a personal adventure, you have to do it or else its left undone. Build up your faith in God today.
3 We also build the future as we make all the necessary sacrifice today.* Life will place demands on you either on the job, in your business etc. The price you are willing to pay will determine the future you’ll see.
CONFESSION:
Lord empower me afresh by your Spirit to walk in purpose and make all the required sacrifice today.
