Fred's Dev # 59: "God is Working On Us: Now Work with Him!"

The scripture makes it plain that God has a purpose for each of us and is working on us! Meditate on these 5 verses:

God made us:
5 “I knew you before I formed you in your mother’s womb.
Before you were born I set you apart Jeremiah 1:5

God works in us and God is building us. For we are God's fellow workers; you are God's field, God's building. I Corinthians 4:9


God not only works in us but gives us power to please him. For God is working in you, giving you the desire and the power to do what pleases him. Phillipians 2:13 NLT

We are God's Masterpiece: "For we are God’s masterpiece. He has created us anew in Christ Jesus, so we can do the good things he planned for us long ago." Ephesians 2:10 NLT

God is the Potter;We are the Clay. He is in charge!
8But now, O LORD, thou art our father; we are the clay, and thou our potter; and we all are the work of thy hand.

Since God made us and is working in us and with us and building us and empowering us, then it behooves each of us to yield ourselves to God for him to do his complete work in us. Why are you resisting God's work in you? Submit to him? "Be still and let him do His thing in your life! He is a loving Father! He is not out to hurt you or short change you. He only has what is good for you. He says in Proverbs, "trust in the Lord with all thine heart, lean not unto your own understanding, in all they ways acknowledge him and he will direct your paths. Proverbs 3:5-6

Finally, he says in Jer 29:11: "For I know the plans I have for you," declares the Lord, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future." NIV

Father forgive me for the times that I have resisted the work that you have wanted to do in my life. Now according to Phillipians 2:13, give me power to please you.

In Jesus Name Amen!
