John 18:37
37Pilate said to Him, Then You are a KING! Jesus answered, You say it! [You speak correctly!] For I am a King. [Certainly, I am a King!] This is why I was born, and for this, I have come into the world, to bear witness to the Truth. Everyone who is of the Truth [who is a friend of the Truth, who belongs to the Truth] hears and listens to My voice. (AMP)
“To this, I was born.” Before you were formed, before you took your first breath, your existence was known and your purpose set. There is no mistaken birth, no chance or fate because before you were, purpose already found you. Have you found it? To this Jeremiah is reminded:
Jeremiah 1:5
5Before I formed thee in the belly I knew thee, and before thou camest forth out of the womb I sanctified thee, and I ordained thee a prophet unto the nations.
The Psalmist assurance, so pure and sublime;
Psalms 139:16
16Thine eyes did see my substance, yet being unperfect; and in thy book, all my members were written, which in continuance were fashioned, when as yet there was none of them.
We notice that before a child was named in the Bible, ‘a name’ was already provided through an encounter. We see that Jesus was named before His birth, and so was Solomon, and John the Baptist among others. I believe that even before you were named, what to name ‘YOU’ was already established or thought of. For this reason, if you think that you were not a planned child the way people usually assert, You’d be on the wrong side of wisdom. If the heavenly realm knew you before, that connotes that God had you planned earlier than your parent ever could!
Our essence is not defined by circumstance or feelings of abandonment; whether you feel abandoned or not, planned or unplanned rather, you are who you are, a royal priesthood (1 Peter 2:9), for in God You move, live, and have your being.
Acts 17:28
28For in him we live, and move, and have our being; as certain also of your own poets have said, For we are also his offspring.
As we find our purpose in Christ, let us re-align ourselves, and realize that we are that planned child with a predefined purpose. Embrace your being regardless of what is around you. Jesus did, and thus He easily walked in His purpose even though He was not recognized as a king, He knew He was born a King to fulfill a purpose and thus He says, “For this reason, I was born to bear witness to Truth!”
John 18:37
Pilate therefore said unto him, Art thou a king then? Jesus answered, Thou sayest that I am a king. To this end was I born, and for this cause came I into the world, that I should bear witness unto the truth. Every one that is of the truth heareth my voice
Do you realize that you are a planned child with a destiny, better phrased, a purpose?
While God predestinates things, He also keeps covenant forever, whatever You do in the name of God shall stand for ever.
Prophetic Utterance:
I am the known and beloved of my Father, from the beginning of time and space, He did plan me, I am planned and not unplanned, I live a life full of purpose because Purpose is why I Am.
Halleluya
