Embracing God's Unique Plan Through the Holy Spirit

do you believe God's got a plan for your life a very specific plan and do you have a passion Lord before I leave this earth I want to fulfill that that's what gripped my heart when God filled me with the Holy Spirit Lord you got a plan for my life and I don't care what else I don't do I want to fulfill that plan because I know when I get into eternity it's not all the various meetings I attended and how much of the Bible I knew or what other people thought about me all those things are going to work be worth nothing the important thing in eternity will be did you fulfill the plan God Made For Your Life [00:05:56]

concerning Jesus we have so much to say that means there are so many things about Christ which are not written in the Gospels that's the thing that gripped me there are so many things about Christ not written in the Gospels if it has already written in the gospel there's no need for this sentence concerning Jesus we have so much to say and it's very hard to explain what's hard to explain about what you read in the gospels then he healed the sick and he raised the dead and he went here and did Miracles and all types of things that's not hard to understand but he says there are certain other things about Jesus which are very hard to explain [00:07:06]

I think if you begin to lose your hearing in the year it would disturb you tremendously imagine if you woke up one day and you discovered even in one year you lost hearing you'd rushed to the doctor hey Doc I've lost Hearing in one year we'd be really be concerned I wonder if we are as concerned that we are not don't hear that voice behind saying this is the way you walk in it when you turn to the right when you turn to the left God is a rewarder of those who diligently seek him that has never changed he has said you seek me with all your heart you will find me [00:08:11]

I guarantee to everybody here in any area if you're seeking to find God's will if you seek him with all your heart you will find that you'll find God's will you hear that word saying this is the way not don't turn right turn left I found that again and again and again my life and when I don't get it clearly I say Lord something's wrong some other some other thing has become priority in my life but I don't want anything to be priority in my life except the will of God because I know that's the only way I can live a useful life on this Earth [00:09:09]

forgetting what is behind and reaching forth to what is before I'll tell you one way we become dull of hearing if you keep looking back and pat yourself on the back saying so many good things you've done and what you think you're doing for the Lord and how useful you are you're using your home for the Lord perhaps and you're doing things for the Lord and you keep thinking about that you'll become dull of hearing Paul said forgetting the things that are behind we like to forget our failures all of us do but we must forget our successes also the good things we have done must be forgotten [00:09:56]

I think of it like a curtain that falls right behind me a curtain right behind me when I look back over my life I can see nothing there's a curtain there I can't see the bad things because the Lord says I don't remember your evil anymore I can't even see the good things that's the only way to press forward Paul says forgetting Philippians 3 13 the things that are behind I press toward the mark for the price of the High Calling of God in Christ Jesus and that is our goal we will be able to hear in different situations [00:10:42]

say Lord I don't even if I failed in the past or done good things in the past I want to know at least the rest of my life I would urge all of you to say Lord the rest of my life forget about the past maybe I failed maybe I succeeded in some areas for the rest of my life however little or much is left of it I want to walk in your plan I want to hear that voice which says don't let turn left here turn right don't take that take this and for that I want to be filled with the Holy Spirit [00:11:17]

because it's the holy spirit that made the difference in the New Covenant the Old Testament it is from outside the New Testament from within and I pray that you will seek for that so that we don't become dull of hearing and it says here is concerning Jesus that we have much to say the holy spirit always points to Jesus and so many times I've said I've asked the Lord the Holy Spirit to tell me how did Jesus do it I mean after he started his ministry that I need to read the gospels I can understand [00:11:52]

but Lord before he became 30 years old when he was living at home how did he live with his brothers and sisters can you tell me how did he do his work as a carpenter or whatever job he did well there's a verse which I would leave with you John chapter 16 please this is a verse that's helped me John 16 concerning the holy spirit in verse 13 the spirit of Truth will guide you into all the truth and the truth is not the truth of two plus two is four or something like that the truth is Jesus Christ he said I am the truth I am the way the truth and the life [00:12:19]

the spirit of truth will guide you into into Jesus he's the truth he will glorify me verse 14 John 16 14 and this is the verse I was thinking out he will take of mine and disclose it to you now you don't need the Holy Spirit to read the gospels and see whether Jesus healed the sick you can be an unbeliever and read the gospel to know Jesus healed the sick and raise the dead and all that what is it that the Holy Spirit disclose to you which you cannot understand if you are not filled with the Holy Spirit it is those hidden things [00:13:06]

in the life of Jesus which are not written in the Gospels which teaches us how to live day our daily life and there are so many of them that we read in John 21 verse 25 John 21 25 there are many other things which Jesus did which are not written in the Gospels which if they were written in detail the whole world would not be able to contain the books written those are the things the holy spirit will tell us you and me how Jesus lived in the areas of not his ministry but his daily life [00:13:41]

every little thing if you're serious about it what were his food habits and I'm talking in terms of discipline and eating discipline and sleeping how did Jesus do it what is his attitude towards friends and enemies and everything things which are not written in the Gospels you'll hear a word behind you saying this is how Jesus lived dear brothers and sisters seek with all your heart to be filled with the holy spirit because the answer to everything that lies in the future [00:14:29]
