“Many are the plans in a person’s heart but it is the LORD’s purpose that prevails”…Proverbs 19:21
“Winning at the Game of Life”
Some say winning at the game of life is oftentimes like playing a game of chess. We are faced with certain limitations, positional movements, and consequences that we must overcome. Every decision made will have an impact on the rest of your life. Winning requires strategic planning, clear vision, and unyielding patience. However, the difference between winning a game of chess versus winning at the game of life is who we allow to be our strategist. Will it be us or God? God has already set up a winning strategy for our victory…all we have to do is to participate, be flexible and most importantly be faithful. According to scripture, God has dealt to every man a measure of faith (Romans 12:3) and it is that measure of faith, that we should use like a chess piece. Instead of us strategizing our goals and plans, we should allow God’s plans to navigate us through the game of life because He always has the winning plan!
God’s Winning Plan!
1. Seek God and His Plans for your life
2. Stop Striving and Start Abiding
3. Allow God to be in the driver seat
4. Be still and allow God to do what He does best
5. Trust the Process
In closing, in order to be able to implement God’s winning plan in your life, you must be a member of God’s team. It is very easy to join and there are no membership fees required. It is very simple…You must first accept Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior. So if you are ready to become a member so that you can implement God’s Winning Plan into your life, then say this prayer out loud and believe it in your heart:
Romans 10:9
That if thou shall confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shall believe in thine heart that God has raised Him from the dead, thou shall be saved.
If you said that prayer and believed it in your heart, then you are saved, and God, Jesus Christ, and the angels in heaven are rejoicing!!! Praise The Lord!!!
