Meditate On
Jesus Is Interested in Your Success
Let the Lord be magnified, who has pleasure in the
prosperity of His servant.
Psalm 35:27
Do you believe that Jesus is interested in your success?
Take a moment to reflect on this.
My friend, I want you to know that Jesus delights in
blessing you. It is His good pleasure to see you blessed in every area of your
life! Now, don’t put a limit on His blessings in your life. The blessings of
the Lord are not (as some may erroneously believe) just seen in material
things. Jesus is infinitely interested in your total well-being. He is
interested in your family, career, fulfillment in life, marriage, ministry, and
boy, does the list go on!
When it comes to your desires, hopes and dreams, there is
no detail that is too minuscule, minute or insignificant for Jesus. Trust me,
if it matters to you, it matters to Him! Even if you go to Him in prayer to
remove that small pimple on your nose, He is not going to look at you and reply
mockingly, “Hey buddy, don’t you know that I’ve got a whole universe to run?
Come to Me when you have a bigger prayer request.” No way! A thousand times no!
Jesus will never ridicule or deride your concerns as petty. He is never
dismissive or condescending. He is not like some of your so-called “friends,”
who may delight in poking fun at your shortcomings. If it bothers you, it
“bothers” Him.
You are important to Jesus. Know with full assurance in
your heart that Jesus knows you perfectly, and yet accepts and loves you
perfectly. When you begin to understand that, you will realize that it is truly
that unmerited favor, that favor from Jesus that you know you do not deserve,
did not merit and cannot earn for yourself, that will perfect every
imperfection and weakness in your life. If you are facing challenges, such as
lack in any area, addictions, fears, sicknesses or broken relationships, Jesus’
unmerited favor will protect, deliver, prosper, bring restoration to and
provide for you. His unmerited favor will transform you into wholeness, and it
is the goodness of God, not your striving and self-efforts, that will lead you
to live victoriously for His glory.
