God Fulfills His Purpose

“I cry out to God Most High, to God, who fulfills his purpose for me. He sends from heaven and saves me, rebuking those who hotly pursue me; God sends his love and his faithfulness.”

Psalm 57: 2-3

Perhaps long ago when you first believed in Christ you may have heard those familiar words, “God loves you and has a wonderful plan for your life.” That brand-new thought warmed your heart, didn’t it? You excitedly embarked on your spiritual journey, pleased and comforted to know that God has a unique and special plan just for you.

But perhaps those days when you first believed are long ago and far away. You’ve gotten sidetracked, your attention diverted. If so, let me ask you: Do you still believe God has a wonderful plan for your life? If not, let Psalm 57 jar your memory. Find assurance in the first few verses.

God will fulfill his purpose for you. He’ll do it for you because he keeps his promise. He’ll fulfill his plan in you by creating in you the image of his Son. Also, God will fulfill his plan through you as you touch others with his love and faithfulness.

Nothing ever thwarts the purpose of God. Nothing can ruin his plan. If you are trusting him, then God’s plan for you is progressing right on schedule, full speed ahead.

God Most High, I praise you that you always fulfill your purpose. You are glorified in that you always keep your promises. You never fail to send help from heaven and you are faithful in giving your love and strength. I want to get in line with your will and say “yes” to your plan for my life.
