 <\/p>\n

A river begins as a small stream, but can become very large
\nand powerful over time. So it is with you! <\/em><\/h3>\n

 <\/p>\n

THE WORD:<\/strong>\u00a0<\/strong> \u201cFor I know the plans I have for you, says the Lord. They are plans for good and not for evil, to give you a future and a hope.\u201d<\/strong><\/em>\u00a0 Jeremiah 29:11 LB<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

THE POINT:<\/strong>\u00a0<\/strong>So what\u2019s the plan? You were built for greatness. After all, the great and mighty God is the one who created you. The Source <\/em>of greatness is found in God alone.<\/em><\/p>\n

Great expectations come from a great God. The Lord God Almighty says that He has great expectations for you. When God is your source, greatness is your destiny.<\/em> God has great things in store for you. God wants the best for you.<\/p>\n

God can make you the best <\/em>that you can be through Jesus Christ. When Christ comes to indwell you, you get the ultimate makeover. <\/em>God will change you from the inside out. Then, Christ will become your very life.<\/em><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

THE APPLICATION:\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/strong>Do you want to realize your true potential? Stop just dreaming of greatness and start living your dream! Give yourself <\/em>completely to the Lord Jesus Christ. Discover for yourself the difference<\/em> that Christ can make in your life.<\/p>\n

When you give yourself to God, He will make you a new creation in Christ. Then, you will become the best<\/em> that you can be. God will make you complete in union with Christ (Colossians 2:10). You can\u2019t improve on God!<\/p>\n

God creates you anew in Christ, and as with all of His creation, God declares you very good!<\/em> Now there is nothing left for you to do but live it. Your destiny doesn\u2019t have to be merely a future hope. It can become a present reality!<\/p>\n

Are you living your destiny? You can if you allow Christ<\/em> to live His life through you. Christ will make your destiny a reality! However, you must stick with The Plan\u2014God\u2019s plan. As you do, you will have a bright future and an enduring hope! Now that\u2019s the goodness of God, and it\u2019s good for you!<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

THE PRAYER:<\/strong>\u00a0<\/strong>\u00a0<\/strong>\u201cDear Lord, Thank You for loving me enough to include me in Your plans. You do not intend to harm me, but to prosper me. I realize that Your plans for me are always the best. So I give up on my plans and I give myself to You. I trust you to accomplish Your perfect plans through me. My hope is in You, Lord. Therefore, I look forward to the bright future You have prepared for me.\u201d<\/p>\n
