Ep 05 - God’s Plan or Yours?

Unshaken | Shalom World

The Lord has a plan for each and every one of His creations; He sent us to the Earth with a purpose. His ways are not our ways. Conforming our lives to His ways is probably one of the greatest struggles we encounter. The Lord asks us to love those who hate us but our instinct is to retaliate; this is a conflict of the wills. Conforming ourselves to God’s plan is the difficult first step in walking with Jesus. We can understand God’s will through the Scriptures. Following the will of God is not easy; the disciples found it hard too. The only way in which we can accept God’s plan differing from our plan is through divine intervention. It is impossible to do the will of God without the Holy Spirit. When the Holy Spirit intervenes, we begin to cherish the will of God. Christ learned obedience through suffering but He only trusted God and His will; the Holy Spirit strengthened Him to do God’s will.
