THE MAIN THEME:  WHEN DO I GET THERE?

TITLE: WHAT WILL BE WILL BE 

 The bible verse for today’s devotional is:  Ephesians 6:13 & 14a (NIV)

Therefore put on the full armour of God, so that when the day of evil comes, you may be able to stand your ground, and after you have done everything, to stand. Stand firm then…

 Devotional:

The popular song “Que Sera Sera” meaning “what will be will be” speaks of the uncertainty of life and the future, encouraging man to resort to his fate of not being in control.

Our text for today clearly states that there are things we can do for ourselves, though God is in control, we are the one to put on the whole armour of God to be able to call the shots.  It is our sole responsibility to be prepared while waiting for opportunities.  It is our sole responsibility to study with all diligence while praying for success in our examinations.  It is in our place to speak up against injustice and inhuman practices while praying for God’s intervention in our nation.

Ezekial 22:30 “And I sought for a man among them, that should make up the hedge and stand in the gap before me for the land, that I should not destroy it: but I found none.  Most times when we resort to fate, we undermine God's capacity to save and deliver because we are the vessel he uses to operate here on earth.

Our bible text reminds us of the need to stand firm, when we have done all that is within our power.  It is only at this point that we can resort to fate singing “what will be will be” in good faith, trusting that all things work together for good to those who love God.  Proverbs 19:21 tell us that “Many are the plans in the mind of a man, but it is the purpose of the Lord that will stand.

We will not miss God’s time.

 Here are a few reflective questions:

• What are the subtle ways the enemy has used this common phrase “what will be will be” to make me lose my power?
• What actions do I need to take to do all that is within my power and continue to stand?

 Let us pray

Dear  Lord, thank you for your word to me today, help me to believe in your power that is at work within me. I receive grace to stand after doing all that is within my power in Jesus name. Amen

Please say these words of affirmation: Say them mean, own them and live them:

• I am God’s co-creator
• I carry God’s mandate to illuminate my world
• My father and I are in control of every situation

 Enjoy your day and see you tomorrow
