Temor del mañana: Hallando certeza a mis planes

Queremos hacer algo bueno, pero nos llenamos de incertidumbre. Preguntamos, “¿Será que esto es lo que Dios realmente quiere para mi? Así, nos llenamos del temor, y no estamos seguros si es algo que Dios desea de nosotros. ¿Será que lo que deseo estudiar es lo que Dios quiere para mi? ¿Este trabajo? ¿Esta relación? Hacemos planes, Dios los cambia.

Esto es lo que nos trae temor. Sentimos control sobre lo que hacemos, pero comenzamos a negociar… “te confiaré, si haces estas cosas para mi Dios. Me casaré, tendré 10 hijos, una familia, un negocio en Bogotá…” Te confiaré SI haces esto para mi.

Tal vez me darás esto… pero no se.

1 Chronicles 17:3-4

Que hacemos cuando sentimos temor del mañana, porque no sabemos que ese plan saldrá. El sueño fue confirmado por Natán…El sueño fue confundido por Dios. Sin embargo… David escucha.

1. We listen to God’s plan.

1 Chronicles 17:7-8, 13-15

What does God want me to do? My own ambitions and desires apart, if God really wants the best for me, why is it He doing this? What does He want from His changing the plan?

What is God trying to do through my pain? Working in me, to work through me?

God wants you to influence others.

2. Trust God’s plan.

1 Chronicles 17:16-17, 23 David’s first words are not, “God, this is something good! What do you mean that my plans aren’t good enough? No. He places them down before His feet.

David expresses humility and says that the Lord should have his way. Choosing humility is painful, but behind humility, awaits better hope.

- This is when it hurts the most. The adults have experienced this pain more than younger ones, because we have walked more years of journeys.

3. Walk in God’s plan.

God gives us a dream. The dream is good. But we fill in the gaps or the space that it takes to get there. God has a plan, and we make plans.

Moses needed to go through the desert 40 years.

Joseph needed to go to Jail

En tiempo, el sueño fue completado. Solomon comes, makes the ark, (passage where Solomon makes ark)…

Jesus sets the best example of this. He listens to His Father.

God’s plan for salvation, chooses the road of suffering, and clings where hell surrounded his heart.

However, he continously prays and trusts God’s plan from the start of his ministry, in the garden, and to the cross and lays in the grave, but because He prayed and walked God’s plan, He fulfilled the plan of redemption for all of us. He brought us salvation.
