So I started reading "He Came to Set the Captives Free" by Rebecca Brown...PLEASE THIS IS SOME HEAVY STUFF AND SHOULD NOT BE APPROACHED LIGHTLY....Ok that's my caution. I was forewarned but thought "oh yea''....yea...i'll leave at that.
But essentially in the whole book, I see how God already usually has us on our way...our the predestined direction/assignment/purpose for our life but does not completely reveal it to us. He trains us and sows the initial seeds to desire the end outcome He seeks through us. We're not placed anywhere by chance. And yes, God allows the devil in sometimes to discipline us and it is for our good. Though the devil, like Good Friday, thinks it's his own doing and can stand a fighting chance to win..but God in His infinite wisdom (1 Cor 1:25) crafts and orders our steps. What the devil intended for our harm, is used by God for His Glory and our victory...Joseph, David, Job, even Jesus...God is always at work, strategically ordering our steps. For "Many are the plans in a man's heart, but it is the LORD's purpose that prevails."(Proverbs 19:21). "He is mighty and firm in His purpose" (Job 36:5).
Heavenly Father. Thank You for loving me. Thank You for Redemption, sending Your Son to die for my sins. I gladly yield leadership and control of my life to Your Holy Spirit. Search my heart, renew my heart, make me over once more to reflect Your Son and the fruits of the Spirit. Daddy I ask for Your forgiveness for doubting Your ability to take care of every one of my needs today. I ask for Your forgiveness for what I meditated upon or said that was not worthy of You. Strengthen me Lord to take dominion over my thought patterns and my flesh. Discipline me in Your ways. Console me in the comfort of Your arms. Thank You guardian angel for petitioning God to take care of me. Watch over my steps and guide me on my path of righteousness. Thank You God for Your watchcare over me and my family and my loved ones. I plead the blood of Jesus Christ over all of them and thank You for availing Yourself to hear my humble prayer. Thank You for being such an Awesome God who knows and sees all of me with a love soo great that never changes. Thank You Jesus, I sought and called out to You. Wanting to know You more. Thank You for Your faithfulness to lead me to Your heart. You are soverign, donned with all splendor & majesty, glorious in all Your ways. I pray and Thank You in the name of Jesus. Amen
