What Will Destroy God's Plans For Our Lives?
Posted by Kenny Vaughan on 21st Jul 2020
One thing that will destroy God’s plan for your life is an unwillingness to repent.
You know if we go the wrong way, we have to be willing to admit it and to say,”I don’t want to go the wrong way, I want to go the right way.”
It’s not really that hard to determine if we are going the wrong way or the right way.
It can be very difficult to have the courage to self-exam. But we can’t be the plaintiff or the defendant in our own lives. If we try, we are going to wreck ourselves.
We have to be willing to sit on the jury of our own lives. That means we have to be willing to step back and ask, “Was I right or was I wrong?”
The worst enemy repentance has is justification
You can justify almost anything in the world you want to, but that doesn’t make it right.
There is no right reason to do the wrong thing.
Be willing to repent and turn back to God.
If you are willing to repent and if you do sincerely repent, God will take you from where you are to where you need to be.
2 Chronicles 7:14 (NIV)
If my people, who are called by my name, will humble themselves and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, and I will forgive their sin and will heal their land.
Luke 15:10 (NIV)
In the same way, I tell you, there is rejoicing in the presence of the angels of God over one sinner who repents.
2 Chronicles 30:9b (NIV)
For the Lord your God is gracious and compassionate. He will not turn his face from you if you return to him.
