Spirit-Living Devotional
Apostle Osborn
PREDESTINED FOR GREATNESS
[[Eph 1:4]] KJV According as he hath chosen us in him before the foundation of the world, that we should be holy and without blame before him in love:
You are a special person in the eyes of God. The above scripture reveals this truth in the most beautiful way. If you are born again, it’s not an accident; you were chosen before the foundation of the world.
Before the first brick would be laid for the creation of the universe, you were chosen in Christ Jesus. You were only revealed in time. But before time began, you were in Him. Everything about your life is divinely orchestrated. For example, it’s not accidental that you are reading this devotional today, God purposed it before time began for you to be blessed today by this devotional.
God forknew you, and He predestined you to conform to Christ without fault or blemish. This is why Rom 8:29 says, “For whom he did foreknow, he also did predestinate to be conformed to the image of his Son, that he might be the firstborn among many brethren.” You look just like Jesus in the sight of God. God conformed everything about you to be like Jesus. As He is, so are you. God designed you for the good life.
Ephesians 2:10 says “For we are God’s [own] handiwork (His workmanship), recreated in Christ Jesus, [born anew] that we may do those good works which God predestined (planned beforehand) for us [taking paths which He prepared ahead of time], that we should walk in them [living the good life which He prearranged and made ready for us to live]” (Amp).
So cheer up. You can not fail. You were prearranged for victories. You can only win. So win today, too. Your life is a success story. Hallelujah!
Confession:
Father, I thank you for your word. My life is for your glory. I live in victories and success. Every day of my life is a plus. Am a success story. I can not fail in life. I live from victory every day in Jesus’ name!
