This is Derek Prince with a word for you from the Word.

“The Lord will fulfill his purpose for me; your love, O Lord, endures forever – do not abandon the works of your hands.”
(Psalm 138:8, NIV)

It’s good to know that God has a purpose for each one of us. The Scripture there does not say that the Lord will fulfill my purpose; it says the Lord will fulfill His purpose for me. There’s a great difference. I may have one purpose; God may have another. God does not guarantee that He will fulfill my purpose, but He does promise that He will fulfill His purpose.

And then the psalmist goes on to say, “Your love, O Lord [and that means ‘your covenant-keeping faithfulness’], endures forever.” When God commits Himself to us to fulfill His purpose in our lives, that is a commitment for time and for eternity.

And then, maybe out of a situation of desperation, the psalmist says, “Do not abandon the works of your hands.” I remember once being at the deathbed of a lady who was dying of cancer, a strong believer. She read that last verse in the version of The Living Bible: “You made me; don’t abandon me.” And she had strong assurance as she read those words: “You made me; don’t abandon me.” But that’s for each one of us. God made us; He will not abandon us. He has a purpose; He’s going to fulfill it. Maybe it won’t be your purpose, but it will be His purpose. That purpose will stand sure and unshakable no matter what you go through.

My Testimony

During the timeline waiting for Michael’s request for a divorce to be settled, God would speak to me Governed by The Holy Spirit: At one point He stated, “You Belong To Me Now” and another was “They (reference to Michael, his mom and his sister) don’t love me the way you love me.

WOW! So Powerful and endearing, yet heart wrenching.

Since my intimate relationship and covenant with God: The Father, The Son (Jesus Christ) and The Holy Spirit, my ultimate and greatest desire is to Please My Heavenly Father.

Moving On

Thank You Heavenly Father for choosing me out of the many who are called, to be your vessel, a living sacrifice, dethroning self, and being Governed by The Holy Spirit to do Your Will through acts of Travailing and Intercessory Prayer.

I pray for the hastening of the return of Our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. I pray for Your Divine Intervention to help us to meet your Will according to Matthew 24:14 to preach the gospel in all nations, (not by might, not by power but by Your Spirit God). In Jesus’ name.
