God Knew You Life's Happening Devotional

Today’s Scripture:

‭Jeremiah 1:5 NIV‬

“Before I formed you in the womb I knew you, before you were born I set you apart; I appointed you as a prophet to the nations.”

This is one of my favorite Bible verses in the entire Bible. It speaks to me in so many ways. It is one of those scriptures that was written just for me. And guess what? You can say the same thing; it was written just for you. Before I formed you, this is God speaking to Jeremiah; before, it speaks of predestination. So, it was always in God's plans before your arrival on earth. God Knew you.

The word knew is a Hebrew word that means to make known, fully known, to be well known; it also means to have sexual relations, like when a husband and wife come together in intimacy. God is saying here, I know you like that. You are one with me, and I am one with you. You are known. If God knows you, then stop saying you can't be used by God because of your divorce, your abortion, your prison time served, or because you don't have a degree or education. God knew you. He knew you would have an abortion, he knew you would get divorced, he knew you would go jail for stealing, but guess what? He still wants you. 

God Knew what was in Moses; he knew what was in David; he knew David would commit adultery, but yet he called David a man after his own heart. God cannot be boxed into our standards. The lies we tell ourselves and the things we listen to cause us not to live the life God wants us to. When he was creating you before you knew you, he knew that you were going to do that thing that you are tripping over right now, but he says, I knew you. I still delight in you. I want to use you.

God gave you what you needed before he asked you for it. Because he knew you. You have the stuff. But there's a soundtrack, your life soundtrack, which is the negative stuff that the enemy speaks into your hearing. The lies he tells you that you are not good enough. You cannot be used by God. That’s a lie. That's how Jeremiah, David, Moses, myself, and even you felt. But God knew you. You have what you need, and it's hidden inside of you. It's called greatness, and that's the God inside of you. He's the Greatness inside of you.

You are known by God. God Knew you. Stop being the victim, you are the victor. Stop being the one who can't but the one who has everything he needs to become great. God Knew you. You are known by God. Family, you are known, and you are loved. Trust God that no matter what you do or experience in your life. It doesn't surprise him. He knew you before you knew yourself, and he called you and made you a prophet. You are known by God. Stop beating up yourself, lean into your calling, and give it all you've got. Someone is waiting for you to show up so they can come up.
