For we are
God’s [own] handiwork (His workmanship), recreated in Christ Jesus, [born anew]
that we may do those good works which God predestined (planned beforehand) for
us [taking paths which He prepared ahead of time], that we should walk in them
[living the good life which He prearranged and made ready for us to live]
(Ephesians 2:10 AMP).
God’s
expected end for you is success, victory, honour, and abundance. He prearranged
a good life of blessings for you to walk in. It brings to mind what He did
before He created Adam. He first created a beautiful garden where everything
Adam would require was made available. He then created Adam and placed him in
the ready-made Garden of Eden, “…to dress it and to keep it” (Genesis 2:15),
not to toil or cultivate the ground afresh.
God knew
you’d be born at this time and planned ahead for you like every caring father
would. That means there’s no need for you to go through life suffering, begging
or seeking blessings, because you stepped into God’s destiny for you the moment
you were born again. Therefore, enjoy your life, and enjoy all that He’s made
available to you.
2 Peter 1:3
says, “According as his divine power hath given unto us all things that pertain
unto life and godliness, through the knowledge of him that hath called us to glory
and virtue.” He’s called you to glory and virtue; that means to a life of
excellence. Never think failure, because God has never made a failure. You’re
His dream come true; you’re the best of everything that He created: “Of his own
will begat he us with the word of truth, that we should be a kind of
firstfruits of his creatures” (James 1:18).
PRAYER: Dear
Father, I thank you for your life and nature in my spirit, and the life of
excellence that I have in Christ Jesus. I’m a winner and a victor forever. I
rise higher than the tides of life, because the greater One lives in me. I’m a
success forever, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.

Study: 1 Peter 2:9 But ye [are] a chosen generation, a royal priesthood,
an holy nation, a peculiar people; that ye should shew forth the praises of him
who hath called you out of darkness into his marvellous light:
Romans 8:30
Moreover whom he did predestinate, them he also called: and whom he called,
them he also justified: and whom he justified, them he also glorified.
John 15:16
Ye have not chosen me, but I have chosen you, and ordained you, that ye should
go and bring forth fruit, and [that] your fruit should remain: that whatsoever
ye shall ask of the Father in my name, he may give it you.
