Every Breath Comes with a Purpose

Every time our family ventures out on vacation, my husband plans out the events.  He reserves a hotel room, researches the area on the internet and creates an itinerary for our enjoyment.  He never leaves one detail unnoticed. 

We arrive and begin marking off our list of 'to dos'.  After completing each one, we talk about the fun and express our favorite parts.  If it were not for my husband, we would sit around twittling our thumbs in the hotel room. 

I just sit back, relax and enjoy the plans made for our family!

"He gave him the plans of all that the Spirit had put in his mind for the courts of the temple of the LORD and all the surrounding rooms, for the treasuries of the temple of God and for the treasuries for the dedicated things." (1 Chronicles 28:12)

"The LORD foils the plans of the nations;
   he thwarts the purposes of the peoples.
But the plans of the LORD stand firm forever,
   the purposes of his heart through all generations." (Psalm 33:10-11)

God plans every detail of your life.  He does not create without purpose.  Walk closely to Him and ask for your itinerary.  No detail goes unnoticed.  A clear picture will be revealed of the steps needed to fulfill His plan. 

Noah trusted and believed God and then followed exactly the instructions to build an ark.  He carefully loaded the ark just as God intended.  Just as God promised, floods came for forty days.  Noah and all passengers survived because they followed instructions.

God provided specific directions to the Israelites on how to travel and reach the Promised Land.  Unfortunately, they did not always listen and obey.  The Israelites spent forty years in the wilderness until they trusted and believed God and follow directions. 

Throughout the Bible, various temples were built.  God gave precise guidance on His vision for each.  He led nations to victory.  He healed numerous individuals, but they needed to follow His instructions and believe in His promises. 

God will do this for your life as well.  Give Him every day, every hour, every minute and every second.  Your every breath comes with purpose.  The plans for your life include prosperity, good, joy, peace and hope.  Your future is already made out; you just need to follow.  Sit back, relax; God will take care of the details.  After completing each detail, praise Him and share the experiences with those in your life.  Just as you would tell another about a fun vacation and suggest places for them to visit; guide others with the Truth you have seen in your walk.  Warn them of places not to travel.  Tell others of the miraculous life that waits for them.  Shine His light for all to see.

God, thank you for another day.  Thank You for every breath taken.  This day is Yours.  Use me as a vessel and bring my experiences out to others when it benefits Your Kingdom.  I love You.

Keep praying harder than the devil can work.
