The Plan Has Been Implemented
According to the custom of the priesthood, he was chosen by lot to enter the temple of the Lord and burn incense. Luke 1:9, ESV
When our daughter got engaged, all kinds of plans were implemented. We had the engagement party, the bridal shower, and of course the wedding. We had planned about a year in advance for the celebration. When the date finally came, we were all excited and ready to implement everything that had been prepared. It was time for a party!
When the priest Zechariah was chosen to enter the temple of the Lord and burn incense, he had no idea it was time for the next part of God’s plan for his life to be implemented. When Queen Vashti refused to go before the king and his guest, Ester had no idea a plan had been implemented for her to save her people. When Mary became engaged to Joseph, she had no idea that she had been hand-selected to be the mother of Jesus.
God’s plans rarely ever look like ours. He lets us go on doing our daily activities believing we are in control but in truth, day by day he is moving us closer to the next thing He has waiting for us. I love that His plan is always waiting for us. Oh, how good is that! He even tells us in scripture that he knows the plans He has for us (Jeremiah 29:11). But the best part is that the plan for our life has already been implemented because we are here!
Scientists say they believe through all their study that the earth is over 4 billion years old. If that is the case, then earth has been waiting over 4 billion years for our season of life. We are here because it was in God’s plan. We were specifically chosen to walk this earth after Jesus came. In this season of celebration, I pray that we will enjoy every moment and be the light that He has already ordained for us years ago.
