God has a Calling and Purpose for all of our lives. No one is here by accident. God Intentionally placed every human being on this planet to glorify Him. However, one of the reasons why a lot of the Divine Purposes that God has ordained for the earth go unfulfilled is because we don't Follow the Script. There are a lot of people, particularly Christians, that are aware of the fact that God has a Divine Design for their lives. They're in touch with the various gifts that God has deposited within them. They're in pursuit of greatness, and want to be a part of the greater good. The problem is, they're not Following the Script. For such a time as this and for the Season for which we are about to embark, it is imperative that we not just be aware of God's Calling for our lives, we must learn to Follow the Script.
Many times the history of humanity in regards to the Sovereignty of God is referred to as an unfolding drama of Redemption. And saints it is just that, A Drama. Whether we realize it or not, we truly are "actors on a screen" fulfilling a Drama that has already been written by God. Do you know that your life has already been planned by God from beginning to end? God not only knows what you're already going to do, He also knows what He's already ordained you to do. This is the mystery of humanity. This is why the challenge in relating to God is walking by faith, because He already knows the Plan, but we do not. But if we allow the Holy Spirit to lead us, God will give us the script. What a script does for an actor (or actress) is to define the role of their character and give them the lines for what they're to say for each scene. And the movie goes along fine, just as long as the actors Follow the Script.
God has a script already pre-written for your life. Before you were in your mother's womb, your role, your character, and your script had already been assigned to you (Jeremiah 1). And if you want to be successful and truly have the Divine Will of God manifested in your life, you need only do one thing, Follow the Script. In the script God has already ordained who your parents would be. In the script He's already ordained where you would be born. In the script He's already ordained what gender you would be. In the script He's already ordained what your ethnicity would be. These are not major issues for us because we pretty much figure those things are generally "outside of our control". But please understand, in the script that God has already written for your life, He's already ordained who your spouse would be. In the script, He's already ordained how many children you would have. In the script, He's already ordained what your career would be, where you would live, and the list goes on. However, in these areas, we get to "decide" if we're going to Follow the Script or not. Sadly to say, most people, including Christians, don't.
The Person who Followed the Script better than any person who's ever walked this planet was Jesus Christ. What made Jesus special was not just that He was the Only Begotten Son of God, but that He Followed the Script just as the Father had written it out. He did nothing (and still doesn't today) unless the Father had given Him Divine Clearance. When you read the scriptures, Jesus says, "all this was done that the scriptures...might be fulfilled" (Matthew 26). When you break down the word "scripture" you get script---ure. your script. This is the key saints. Follow the Script. Follow the Word. Follow the Path and the Pattern that God has already ordained. Don't try to improvise, don't try to be creative, don't be a solo artist, Follow the Script. The script has already been written before the Beginning of Time. All you have to do now is follow it.
