by Overseer Prophet Daniel Powell Sr.
Overseer Prophet Daniel Powell Sr. author of How to Live as Citizens of Heaven spoke on what the Holy Spirit revealed to him. How the people of God needs to truly Know God like they say that they do. This is how the message, To Know God is to Know God´s Plan came about.
People do not know God's plan for their life because they do not know Him.
If we do not know God, we will never know God's plan for our lives, our children's lives, and our future.
People act, talk, and sound like they know Him, but they do not know Him or His plan for their life. People say they know God to feel significant. But You cannot say you know God, and you do not fellowship with Him, praise Him, and worship Him.
We do not know God if we:
— Still lie
— Steal from Him
— Do not worship Him
— Do not praise Him
— Do not fellowship with Him
God had to create people who would worship Him. So He created man (us). He did not create us for our husband, wife, business, riches, and wealth.
God was angry at Adam and Eve because they stopped worshiping Him.
Whoever we obey is who we worship.
We see that people are afraid to stand on His word. Afraid to receive His grace and mercy.
A man should not and cannot tell you the plan of God for your life.
God's plan is going to take separation, persecution, trials, and giving up our will.
Nobody knew what was going to take place this year... only God Jehovah knew!
What God has spoken, NO man can tell you differently.
"For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, says the Lord, thoughts of peace and not of evil, to give you a future and a hope." (Jeremiah 29:11 NKJV)
Again, we can never know the plans of God when we do not know God.
Your husband, wife, children, father, and mother don't know... BUT GOD.
God said, "Get to know me, and you'll have peace." God's plan for us this year was to have peace: through the havoc and pandemic.
He will never allow the righteous to decrease or to be put to shame. When you think you are not going to make it, that's an evil thought.
You can't be in or have peace with an evil thought. Man will have your thoughts be thoughts of evil.
When people feel more comfortable with the world, they are not in the Kingdom of God.
God has given us a King (Jesus Christ) and a Kingdom.
Evil people will give you evil thoughts, and peaceful people will give you peaceful thoughts.
To get into the Kingdom of God, we need righteousness, peace, and joy; see Romans 14:17.
To know God, you will know your future.
Without God, you have no future.
God is the possessor of our future.
God has your future in His hands.
Your future is in peace, not in evil.
Stop rushing to do what God said He was going to do. When we rush, we mess up the plan of God.
We are always seeking God, but are we must search for Him with ALL our heart.
Once we search for Him with all our heart, He will be found by us.
Jeremiah 9:23-24
Do you know the plan, God has over your life?
If not, you have to know God for yourself. Not from your spiritual leaders, spouse, children, etc.
God will never reveal the whole plan for our lives to us. He will give us bits and pieces because the entire plan will be too much for us to handle.
To know God, we must first understand Him, and to know God is to love Him.
When we submit to the plan of God, we won't see the flesh of man.
God demands those called by His name to exercise loving, kindness, judgment (justice), and righteousness in the earth.
People should find their real meaning and true worth in the fact that they KNOW God.
When we praise God, it is cause we know God.
To know God is having developed a relationship with Him through meeting and spending time with Him. Not with man (humans), not with your leader, not with your husband or wife, etc.
We want to have a relationship with everyone else but not with God.
To know God means:
To appreciate Him.
To experience Him
To learn Him.
To understand Him.
To recognize Him.
To have Him.
To see Him.
You cannot work the ministry if you do not know God's plan.
"Behold what manner of love the Father has bestowed on us, that we should be called children of God! Therefore the world does not know us, because it did not know Him." (1 John 3:1 NKJV)
Born again believers, want to be accepted by the world, but not accepted by the Kingdom (this concept is wrong). The world does not know Jesus Christ. Therefore, the world does not know us, so do not expect them to. We should never want to be accepted by the world because the world does not know us, and if they do not know us, then they should not know how to find us.
God's plan is to take away our sins. "Whoever abides in Him does not sin. Whoever sins has neither seen Him nor known Him." (1 John 3:6 NKJV)
Abide: means to obey, observe God, to remain stable and fixed in His Kingdom, and to endure without yielding to the devil.
Dwell: means to live and remain in a given state.
Know the Plan God has over your life. Or you will not be able to fulfill it.
It does not take a lifetime to know. It takes submission.
Once you know Him, He'll let you know who you are and what He needs you to do.
To know God is to know His plan, and to complete it, it does not take a lifetime to know it; we just have to submit.
"The plan of God for me is not the Plan of God for you. But it all works together for the Kingdom." — Prophet Daniel Powell Sr
