The Year Uzziah died…..What
happened the year of your birth?
Well,
if you’re anything like me I don’t have a clue. In 1994, all that I know is
that I was born, and so were several of my friends. But does the year you were
born determine your future? No and Yes. God had you born the year that you were
for a very important reason. You must understand that you are here right now,
the exact # of years old you are for a
reason. That reason(s) are orchestrated by a sovereign God. He knows every
detail of everyone’s life from before time began to after it ends in eternity!
God is truly sovereign! If He cares for the sparrows why do you worry? Why do
you worry about who you will marry? Do not worry because God will direct you.
Besides worrying doesn’t do any good, and each day has enough in it.
On the subject of God directing you listen
to this passage:
“For the people shall dwell in Zion
at Jerusalem: thou shalt weep no more: he will be very gracious unto thee at
the voice of thy cry; when he shall hear it, he will answer thee. And though the Lord
give you the bread of adversity, and the water of affliction, yet shall not thy
teachers be removed into a corner any more, but thine eyes shall see thy
teachers: And thine ears shall hear a word behind thee,
saying, This is the way, walk ye in it, when ye turn to the right hand, and
when ye turn to the left. Ye shall defile also
the covering of thy graven images of silver, and the ornament of thy molten
images of gold: thou shalt cast them away as a menstruous cloth; thou shalt say
unto it, Get thee hence.
Then shall he give the rain of thy
seed, that thou shalt sow the ground withal; and bread of the increase of the
earth, and it shall be fat and plenteous: in that day shall thy cattle feed in
large pastures. The oxen likewise and the young asses that ear the
ground shall eat clean provender, which hath been winnowed with the shovel and
with the fan. And there shall be upon every high
mountain, and upon every high hill, rivers and streams of waters in the day of
the great slaughter, when the towers fall. Moreover
the light of the moon shall be as the light of the sun, and the light of the
sun shall be sevenfold, as the light of seven days, in the day that the Lord bindeth up the breach of his people, and healeth the stroke of
their wound.” Isaiah 30:19-26 KJV
