“God ‘s Secret Plan”

 “God’s Secret Plan”

 

“No eye has seen, no ear has heard, and no mind has imagined what God has prepared for those who LOVE Him.  1 Corinthians 2:9

 

The first thing we must understand about this verse is, it is NOT talking about Heaven, even though Heaven is a GLORIOUS, MAGNIFICENT, AWESOME place, I’m SURE.  If you have read the SCRIPTURES in the BOOK of REVELATION, the Apostle John describes what Heaven is like.  This Scripture is actually talking about the SECRET PLAN that comes from the very HEART of FATHER GOD, and that PLAN was PREPARED and CARRIED OUT by the LORD JESUS CHRIST, and it is APPLIED to the BELIEVERS, by GOD’S HOLY SPIRIT.

Of course, we are talking about GOD’S SECRET PLAN of SALVATION.  The Apostle Paul was talking to the Corinthians about having a WISDOM that is NOT the WISDOM of this world.  In verse seven, Paul tells us that GOD’S SECRET PLAN was previously HIDDEN, even though He made it for OUR ULTIMATE GLORY, BEFORE the world BEGAN.  Paul goes on to say that the rulers of this world have NOT UNDERSTOOD it.

The ONLY WAY the Corinthians could KNOW this PLAN was by the HOLY SPIRIT, who KNOWS and REVEALS these DEEP THINGS of GOD, concerning SALVATION.  Nobody can KNOW the thoughts of someone else, so HOW can they KNOW the THOUGHTS of GOD without the HELP of the HOLY SPIRIT.  So, how much MORE is the work of the HOLY SPIRIT needed, if the thoughts of GOD are to be KNOWN.

God wants the believer to KNOW about this SECRET PLAN and to KNOW what God has PREPARED for those who LOVE HIM.  If YOU don’t BELIEVE in God and HAVE a GENUINE LOVE for Him and His SON, JESUS CHRIST, the ONLY ONE who COULD provide SALVATION, through GOD’S PLAN, then you do NOT BELONG to HIM and are NOT a part of His FAMILY.  And your destiny will be an ETERNITY in HELL with ALL its HORRORS and NO WAY to ESCAPE ONCE you are there. 

However, a PART of God’s SECRET PLAN is; for YOU to ADMIT that YOU are a SINNER in NEED of the SAVIOR, JESUS.  And YOU MUST BELIEVE, with ALL your HEART, that JESUS DIED for YOU, and that He is ALIVE in Heaven, making intercession for you before God. Then YOU MUST CONFESS your SINS to Him and ASK Him for His FORGIVENESS.  You MUST be WILLING to TURN AWAY FROM your SINFUL LIFESTYLE and TURN TO GOD with a TRUE REPENTANT HEART.  You MUST ACCEPT God’s Gift of SALVATION and the HELP of His HOLY. SPIRIT, who will REVEAL GOD’S SECRET PLAN that He has PREPARED for you.  Do this NOW, while you STILL can.  He’s WAITING and COMING SOON!!!  Don’t Be LEFT BEHIND!!!
