FAITH CAPSULE: Get God involved in all your endeavors.
Genesis 11:1-9
It does not matter how much you take challenges before God.
God is a caring God that knows all. He is the creation of all.
God, the creation of all, spoke to Jeremiah, “Before I formed you in the womb I knew you; before you were born I sanctified you; I ordained you a prophet to the nations.” (Jeremiah 1:5)
The word of God He said to Jeremiah speaks to all without exception.
God knows the end of all from the beginning.
When God proposes, no man can dispose of it.
What God disposes; no man can propose it.
Have you been proposing without God?
Have you taken your proposal before God to find out whether or not it is in line with Him?
A believer of God should always go to God with proposals, the evidence of trusting and hoping in God.
Get God involved!
It does not matter who you are or where you are under the heaven, none beyond the reach of God, the creator.
Genesis 11:4 states, “And they said, ‘Come let us build ourselves a city and a tower whose top is in the heavens; let us make a name for ourselves, lest we scattered abroad over the face of the whole earth.’” The proposed building was not the problem, but the motive behind the proposal conflicted with the Almighty God of creation.
Having been blessed with a plain land that does not have obstruction to construction, the people wanted to construct and grow beyond their boundaries.
Are you in the process of abusing the blessing of God?
Are you attempting to make yourself a name instead of having His name become glorified?
If they were Godly-minded, they would have consulted Him.
Get God involved in all your endeavors.
What are you trying to accomplish with the proposal in your heart?
Do you want to stand tall above and beyond your level?
Are you one attempting to raise your shoulder above your head?
Have you taken your challenge to God?
Nothing is wrong in proposing to grow big, but it can become wrong to move outside of God.
The proposal, however, that does not center on God is an indirect withdrawal from the only One who can make or unmake the fulfillment of the proposal.
It does not matter who you are or where you are under the heaven, none beyond the reach of God, the creator.
Prayerfully, let God know what He has already known.
He has seen the future from the past.
He is a jealous God, and He deserves all your attention so He can attend to you even more than you expected.
Take all your proposals, desires, hopes, and dreams to the Lord with a humble heart, and He will increase you.
Prayer for today: Ask that you be enabled to praise God with all your heart and glorify Him.
