Romans\u00a0 <\/span>11 :\u00a0 <\/span>33 \u00a0 <\/span>NKJV<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n

(33) \u00a0 <\/span>\u201cOh, the depth of the riches both of the wisdom and knowledge of God!\u00a0 <\/span>How unsearchable are <\/i>His judgments and His ways past finding out!\u201d\u00a0<\/span><\/b><\/span><\/p>\n

Psalm 139 :\u00a0 <\/span>5-6\u00a0 <\/span>NKJV<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n

(5) \u00a0 <\/span>\u201cYou have hedged me behind and before,\u00a0<\/b>And laid Your hand upon me.<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n

(6) \u00a0 <\/span>Such<\/i> knowledge is too wonderful for me;<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n

It is high, I cannot attain <\/i>it.\u201d<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n

Psalm 138 : 8\u00a0 <\/span>NKJV<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n

(8) \u00a0 <\/span>\u201cThe LORD will perfect that which <\/i>concerns me;<\/b><\/span>
\nYour mercy, O LORD, endures <\/i>forever;<\/b><\/span>
\nDo not forsake the works of Your hands.\u201d<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cGod\u2019s omniscience governs his omnipotence.\u00a0 <\/span>Infinite knowledge rules<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n

infinite strength.\u00a0 <\/span>\u201cHe is wise in heart, and mighty in strength\u201d\u00a0 <\/span>(Job 9 : 4\u00a0 <\/span>KJV).\u00a0 <\/span>\u201cWith him is wisdom and strength\u201d (Job 12 : 13\u00a0 <\/span>KJV).\u00a0 <\/span>\u201cHe is mighty in strength and wisdom\u201d\u00a0 <\/span>(Job 36 : 5\u00a0 <\/span>KJV).<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n

His power is not capricious or careless.\u00a0 <\/span>Quite the contrary.\u00a0 <\/span>His wisdom manages and equals his strength.\u00a0 <\/span>Paul announced, \u201cOh, the depths of the riches of the wisdom and knowledge of God!\u00a0 <\/span>How unsearchable his judgments, and his paths beyond tracing out!\u201d\u00a0 <\/span>(Romans 11 : 33 NIV).<\/span><\/p>\n

His knowledge about you is as complete as his knowledge about the universe.\u00a0 <\/span>\u201cEven before a word is on my tongue, behold, O Lord, you know it altogether.\u00a0 <\/span>Your eyes saw my unformed substance; in your book were written, every one of them, the days that were formed for me, when as yet there were none of them\u201d (Psalm 139 : 4, 16 ESV).<\/span><\/p>\n

The veils that block your vision and mine do not block God\u2019s. \u00a0<\/span><\/b> Unspoken words are as if uttered.\u00a0 <\/span>Unrevealed thoughts are as if proclaimed.\u00a0 <\/span>Unoccurred moments are as if they were history.\u00a0 <\/span>He knows the future, the past, the hidden, and the untold.\u00a0 <\/span>Nothing is concealed from God.<\/b>\u00a0 <\/span>He is all-powerful, all-knowing, and all-present.<\/span><\/p>\n

Heavenly Father, your mighty wisdom is mind-boggling.\u00a0 <\/span>Your knowledge is complete.\u00a0 <\/span>Nothing stumps you or perplexes you.\u00a0 <\/span>Your wisdom is ruled by your infinite strength.\u00a0 <\/span>You know everything about the past and the future.\u00a0 <\/span>Nothing is hidden from you.\u00a0 <\/span>Your mighty strength and wisdom are a firm foundation for all who believe in you.\u00a0 <\/span>We can rely on you, as our faithful Father, to guide us, to teach us, to help us,….amen <\/i>\u201d<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0<\/span> \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 <\/span>Lived Loved<\/i><\/b><\/span><\/p>\n

Do you personally know beyond any doubt or question whatsoever just how great our God really is?\u00a0 <\/span>Do you realize just how much He knows about you and everything that happens to you?\u00a0 <\/span>Are you aware that God is in total control of your life if you will simply be obedient to His instructions and Laws?\u00a0 <\/span>He is your Creator!\u00a0 <\/span>He knitted you fearfully and wonderfully together in your mother\u2019s womb.\u00a0 <\/span>He numbered the very hairs on your head.\u00a0 <\/span>And He assigned and numbered the very days your life would be lived out on this earth even before you were born.\u00a0 <\/span>Because He has done all of these good things, in advance, for you….do you think you can trust God to govern and control your life?\u00a0 <\/span>I certainly do hope so!<\/span><\/p>\n

God further goes on to say in His Word that He has laid out a complete plan for our lives, and that we are to follow it.<\/span><\/p>\n

He boldly tells us that we should follow His plan.\u00a0 <\/span>If we do so, His Word tells us that we will grow and prosper.\u00a0 <\/span>We are to love and serve our fellow man.\u00a0 <\/span>In so doing we will then bring glory and honor back to God Himself!<\/span><\/p>\n

In other words, if we are obedient to His instructions we will be greatly blessed and our ways will be made prosperous.\u00a0 <\/span><\/b>Those promises alone should be enough to motivate you to want to be obedient to God and His laws.<\/span><\/p>\n

All of this is discussed in The Holy Bible in the Book of Ephesians, Chapter 2, verses 4–10\u00a0 <\/span>NKJV<\/b>\u00a0 <\/span>where it reads:<\/span><\/p>\n

(4) \u00a0 <\/span>\u201cBut God, who is rich in mercy, because of His great love with which He loved us,<\/b>\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

(5) \u00a0 <\/span>even when we were dead in trespasses, made us alive together with Christ (by grace you have been saved),<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n

(6) \u00a0 <\/span>and raised us<\/i> up together, and made us <\/i>sit together in the heavenly places <\/i>in Christ Jesus,<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n

(7) \u00a0 <\/span>that in the ages to come He might show the exceeding riches of His grace in His <\/i>likeness toward us in Christ Jesus.<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n

(8) \u00a0 <\/span>For by grace you have been saved through faith, and that not of yourselves; it is <\/i>the gift of God,<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n

(9) \u00a0 <\/span>not of works, lest anyone should boast.<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n

(10) For we are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand that we should walk in them.\u201d\u00a0<\/span><\/b><\/span><\/p>\n

You see blessed friends, the plan for your life is already in place if you are smart enough to be obedient to God and His laws.\u00a0 <\/span>The blessings promised are there for the taking and receiving if you are saved by and through Jesus Christ\u2019s<\/b> shed blood on Calvary\u2019s Cross.<\/b>\u00a0 <\/span>All that is required of you is that remain obedient to God\u2019s guidance and faithful to following His Word.<\/span><\/p>\n

Now that condition for happiness is totally up to you.\u00a0 <\/span>You must choose to either follow God and His Ways or you try to live your life according to your own foolish decisions and choices.\u00a0 <\/span>The blessings or the curses await you.\u00a0 <\/span>They are dependent upon the choices you make.\u00a0 <\/span>Remember as I have said before….It is your own mind and you are in total control of your own thoughts.\u00a0 <\/span>Follow God\u2019s directions and your choices are always good and greatly beneficial.\u00a0 <\/span>Rebel against God through disobedience to His instructed ways and you will pay a dreadful price and suffer great miseries.\u00a0 <\/span>It is truly up to you.\u00a0 <\/span><\/b>I beg of you, please don\u2019t mess up the beautiful plans and blessings God has in store for you.\u00a0 <\/span>Be obedient and be good.\u00a0 <\/span>Follow God and do not sin.\u00a0 <\/span>It will be greatly worth it!<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n

Remember God is the manufacturer.\u00a0 <\/span>He put you together. He knows everything about you and how it is to operate.\u00a0 <\/span>The closer you grow and stay to God and His laws, the greater will be your happiness and success.<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n

Read and feed on the Word of God.\u00a0 <\/span>Ponder the meaning of every word or verse that you read.\u00a0 <\/span>Associate with other Bible-believing Christian friends and associates.\u00a0 <\/span>Talk about what you are reading.\u00a0 <\/span>Meditate on what the Scripture is speaking to you as you read it.<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n

Remember, Christ has come so you may life and have it more abundantly.<\/span><\/p>\n

Pray to your Creator every day.\u00a0 <\/span>Talk to Him openly and unabashedly.\u00a0 <\/span>Share with Him your concerns and desires of your heart.\u00a0 <\/span>Don\u2019t demand anything but only request that which you want Him to do for you.<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n

Share your knowledge and truth that you are learning from your Christian growth.\u00a0 <\/span>Be humble.\u00a0 <\/span>Share the Good News of the gospel of Jesus Christ to those who want to know more about it. Work hard and be a good example for other people to see.\u00a0 <\/span>Let your light shine!\u00a0 <\/span>Your goal is to become more and more like Jesus Christ Himself.\u00a0 <\/span>Everyone who sees and watches you live your life should see more and more Christlikeness shinning through your words and actions.<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n

God loves you.\u00a0 <\/span>Never forget that….no matter what you have done in your past.\u00a0 <\/span>No matter what you have said or how you have acted.\u00a0 <\/span>If you are saved……….you are forgiven!\u00a0 <\/span>Don\u2019t drag forgiven baggage along with you.<\/span><\/p>\n

Today is the beginning of the rest of your life. You can always start over.\u00a0 <\/span>Our God is a God of new beginnings. Remember as a Christian Believer, you are Forgiven!\u00a0 <\/span>Your slate has been wiped clean.\u00a0 <\/span>Your confessed sins have also been completely forgotten by your Creator!<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n

All you need to do is Repent of your Sins.\u00a0 <\/span>Stop performing them and change the ways you are living your life.\u00a0 <\/span>You know you can do that.\u00a0 <\/span>Change your associations away from the bad influences and towards the good and proper influences.\u00a0 \u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Find a good Bible-believing, preaching, and teaching church.\u00a0 <\/span>The person you will become depends upon the books you read and the people with whom you associate.<\/span><\/p>\n

Totally depend upon God to lead you through the maze of life.\u00a0 <\/span>He likes it when you live depending upon Him to meet and fill your daily needs.<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n
