Psalms 139:14, 20 KJV
I will praise thee; for I am fearfully and wonderfully made: marvellous are thy works; and that my soul knoweth right well...
God Made You the Way You Are
!
Are you completely happy with your body
and mind? What about your mental
health? Take comfort in knowing God has
created you the way you are for a reason.
You don’t have to feel undue pressure to
be like other people because God didn’t
make you like other people.
This verse uses the word ‘fearfully.’ It is
the same word that is used when the
Bible talks about the fear of the Lord. It
means to have a respect and reverence for God. Or, literally this word can be rendered to be full of respect and
reverence (full of fear). You should be
thankful to God for the body
and life He has given you. God does not randomly drop people into this world without regard for their
needs and situations. The Bible says that He knows the number of hair on our head and He knows that we
have real physical needs (Luke 12:7; Matthew 6:25-34). God does care about you. In return you should be
thankful for the life and body He has given you.
The word ‘wonderfully’ means to be distinct or unique. Though it is often a trite saying, this verse says
that God made you special. God has a special purpose and plan for you. The Bible says God formed you (Isaiah 44:24) and created you as His own masterpiece for a purpose (Ephesians 2:10).
There are things that God has designed you to do in life. We often hear preachers talking about God’s will
and how we ought to do it. Sometimes people are confused as to what that will is, but one thing i know is that the will of God is the mind of God and you know the mind of God through His word and the leading of the Holy Spirit. The fact that God’s
will is perfect and that when you are doing it, you will absolutely love doing it.
The first couple of verses in Romans 12 talk about God’s will being good, acceptable and perfect. When you understand that God has designed you special for a purpose and that His
will is perfect, you will begin to see that it is also good and acceptable to you. It will be something you
enjoy doing.
The book of Psalms talks of this too in Psalm 37 verse 4. It says to delight in the Lord, or be happy in the
Lord. Rest comfortably in Him. When you do that then He will give you the desires of your heart. If you delight in Him then He will give you the right desires. When you have the right desires then He will fulfill
those desires in you. When you do His will then what you crave, or desire, most is to please Him.
Does that mean everyone will please God in the same way or have the same desires? No. That is where
Psalm 139:14 comes into play. God has created you in such a way that you will have passions and desires
that are unique to you. What you draw pleasure from doing will be very different than what gives me great
pleasure.
Are You Happy With God’s Creation?
Have you struggled with the way the Lord made you in some way? Maybe you have physical traits that
you feel are not as pretty as another person’s. It could be that your mental capacity is not as high as
people you go to school or work with. You need to remember that God made you in a special way and
because of that you should be full of awe and respect for the body or mind He has given you.
Now, don’t read that to mean we should not try to improve in ways that we can. Let’s be honest: God did
not make us fat and lazy. God made most of us with a body that is capable of working hard physically and mentally so that we can serve Him . We shouldn’t blame God because we don’t want to study and try to
do better with the abilities He has given us.
Be thankful for the body God has given you and work to keep it in good working
condition so that you can serve your Savior in the way He wants. You can’t fulfill the purpose God has for
your life if you mistreat the fearfully and wonderfully designed body He has given you. There are times we are limited in our service for God because we have created situations for ourselves that He never intended.
Fearfully and Wonderfully Made
!
When you begin to understand the greatness of this verse you can be liberated from so many negative
things that keep you from serving God. You should take counsel from other people. The Bible says there is wisdom in having many counselors (Proverbs 11:14; 24:6). However, you should not try to live your life in
service to God based on what other people think you should do. Learn what God’s will for your life is.
PRAYER: BE THANKFUL FOR WHO YOU ARE. PRAISE GOD FOR CREATING YOU IN HIS IMAGE AND LIKENESS!

HE'S NEVER LATE!
Luke 5:1-4 GNB
One day Jesus was standing on the shore of Lake Gennesaret while the people pushed their way up to him to listen to the word of God. He saw two boats pulled up on the beach; the fishermen had left them and were washing the nets. Jesus got into one of the boats — it belonged to Simon — and asked him to push off a little from the shore. Jesus sat in the boat and taught the crowd. When he finished speaking, he said to Simon, “Push the boat out further to the deep water, and you and your partners let down your nets for a catch.”
Luke 5:6-7 GNB
They let them down and caught such a large number of fish that the nets were about to break. So they motioned to their partners in the other boat to come and help them. They came and filled both boats so full of fish that the boats were about to sink.
God used Peter's boat to preach the gospel while other fishermen were busy fishing, am sure they will be mocking Peter that he is wasting his time and money by allowing this preacher to use his boat at a time like this. And when Jesus finished preaching it was getting late and people were packing up to leave for the day, peter would have thought in his mind, this preacher wasted all my time today, now am going home empty handed, but that was the time the master asked Peter to go and fish, and when Peter harkened to the words of the Master and cast his net into the sea, there was a testimony and a miracle!
Are you a vessel in the Master's hand? Is he using you in any way? It is an honor and a privilege for God to use a man. Dare to present yourself at the feet of the master for He has a work for you to do.
Anyone God uses He blesses. There are no arguements to that fact. Sometimes it will seem as if the world is on your shoulders and hope seems far away from you. God never dumps His child, He will always take care of you! Even your present afflictions, its but for a moment. Peter did not interrupt Christ when He was using his boat but allowed Him to finish. Will you allow God to complete His task in your life? I know its not easy and sometimes you feel sad, lonely, discouraged, angry and people dont seem to understand your sorrows, you might not believe it but i understand. You are not alone!
Don't faint or wallow in depression, your testimony has been mandated by Heavenly Council to come to pass.!
Just Be Patient!
DECREE: AS JEHOVAH LOCATED PETER ON THAT FAITHFUL DAY, MAY HE LOCATE YOU RIGHT NOW IN JESUS NAME!
AS PETER DID NOT INTERRUPT CHRIST BUT HAD PATIENCE FOR HIM TO COMPLETE HIS TASK, MAY THAT SAME GRACE BE AVAILABLE FOR YOU IN JESUS NAME!
YOU ARE MADE PERFECT, WHOLE AND COMPLETE IN CHRIST JESUS, LACKING NOTHING!
(I love you and am praying for you).
