Did you know that God already has a blueprint for your life that is ready for implementation? It was once destroyed and distorted because of sin, but through Jesus Christ, we now have God's perfect and pleasing will readily available once more.

God made each and every one of us for a specific purpose and His purposes for our lives are always wonderful. God once spoke to the people of Israel in Exodus 9:16, saying, "But I have raised you up for this very purpose, that I might show you my power and that my name might be proclaimed in all the earth." The same is true for us today.

However, many times when we pray, we pray as if we don't want God's perfect will to happen. We'd rather have it our own way. It becomes a habit of ours to instantly pray in our frame of thought. We ask God for instant provision, for career changes, for specific relationships which we think God has meant for us without even asking Him.

Many times, in our fallen nature, we would rather have our lives the way we think is best. But God makes it very clear in scripture that His ways and thoughts are way higher than ours. If you think that your plans are big, wait until you hear God's plans for your life.

That's why Jesus taught us in Matthew 6:9-10 to always start communion and prayer with God with this specific idea: "Our Father in heaven, hallowed be your name, your kingdom come, your will be done, on earth as it is in heaven."

When God's kingdom and God's will become the starting point of our days, we open ourselves up to greater and more astounding possibilities. There is no plan better than God's plan.

Truth be told, we didn't always have this opportunity. The Bible tells us that we were once far from God and therefore far from His good and pleasing will because of our transgressions (Colossians 1:21). But God, in His rich love and mercy, bought us back with the blood of Jesus Christ.

Why? Because God wants us to live lives full of purpose. God does not want to see one single life wasted away and merely chasing useless and pointless things. He longs for us to live the life that He meant for us to live -- a life of influence and blessing to others.

The one thing that we should learn how to pray for more and more is for God's will to be done here on earth as He has planned it out in heaven. When we do that, we will start to see more and more of Jesus in our lives and become the people that He bought with the price of His own blood.
