“Every day of my life was recorded in YOUR book. Every moment was laid out before a single day had passed. How precious are your thoughts about me, O GOD! They are innumerable”. (Psalm 139:16-17; NLT).

You need to know and believe that you are not an accident or a mistake.

As a teenager, one of the worse words that I heard from a close friend was how he abhors himself. He was the cause of the major conflict between two families. The maternal families were very insistent that his father was responsible for impregnating their daughter. While on the other hand, his father, with the full support of his own family, he firmly denied the allegation and named my friend Innocent; as a way of expressing his innocence.

That young man grew up with rejection and as often as he could, he expressed the unfortunate circumstances of his birth.

There are many people who are like that young man who have been made to feel unwanted, unloved and who consider their birth a mistake.

There is no such thing as a child born out of mistake. You may be born out of wedlock, or born by a teenage or raped mom, or even born out of an incestuous relationship.

Read my lips “YOU ARE NOT A MISTAKE”.

GOD in HIS infinite wisdom and love ordained that humans would recreate life through the process of fertilization; which naturally would involve sexual intercourse between the opposite sexes. Fertilization is the union of a human egg and sperm. The process of fertilization involves a sperm fusing with an ovum. The most common sequence begins with ejaculation during copulation, follows with ovulation, and finishes with fertilization. There are also many couples who desire to have children through the natural process of fertilization but who unfortunately cannot for various reasons; and thus have to resort to various exceptions to the natural sequence; such as artificial insemination, in vitro fertilization and external ejaculation without copulation.

Although GOD designed copulation (sexual intercourse) for marriage, it is not always the case for various reasons which revolve round the sexually immoral behavior of the human beings involved.  If you were born out of such an alliance, calm your emotions down; your birth still followed the process of fertilization, you are not a mistake.

The point I am making here is this:

Whatever the circumstances of your birth, you are not a ‘biological error’; you are in the plan and purpose of GOD.

Let me give you another proof that GOD loves you, wants you here in this world and at this time. You just have to believe that you owe your existence to GOD and have no need to feel rejected

The Psalmist in reference to GOD’s awesome creation that you are, wrote about your preordained existence stating:

“You made all the delicate, inner parts of my body and knit me together in my mother’s womb. Thank you for making me so wonderfully complex! Your workmanship is marvelous—how well I know it. You watched me as I was being formed in utter seclusion, as I was woven together in the dark of the womb. You saw me before I was born. Every day of my life was recorded in your book. Every moment was laid out before a single day had passed. (Psalm 139:13-16; NLT).

I wish I knew this fact with which to have encouraged my teenage friend. But then, I was a teenager at that time as well, and utterly clueless. But thank GOD for how well the Gospel is spreading, people are becoming more knowledgeable every day. That is why this information is coming to you today. So that you can apply this truth of the Word of GOD to your life and can also stop believing the lies of the devil.

You came into existence by the work of a MASTERMIND. HE gave great thought to even the minutest details for your existence before you even existed.

HE also designed the sexual organs, instituted marriage and designed the family so that you can grow in an atmosphere of love. You are definitely not a mistake.

Before that, HE created the right environment suitable for your body to live well in, and your soul would thrive and  your spirit would be vtalized.

Everything HE created in the world was for you. You were in HIS mind before HE created the world. Do not ever doubt that you are wanted. Your parents may have their mental challenges that have made them incapable of rational thinking, but you should never allow the beliefs of others adversely affect your life.

Whatever negative happened before you were born belongs to your past. Leave it there. But you are responsible for your present and your future – for how you live your life.  The world is all before you to become who GOD designed you to be. Everything in the world exists for you. You have no excuses.

The unfavorable circumstances of your birth does not negate GOD’s plans for your life.

GOD, in HIS Word through the prophet Jeremiah says:

“…I know what I have planned for you,’ says the LORD.’I have plans to prosper you, not to harm you. I have plans to give you a future filled with hope.” (Jeremiah 29:11; NET Bible)

Did you get that?  GOD’s plans cannot be limited by the circumstances of your birth. HIS thoughts about you are so precious.  Your mind cannot fathom the depths of GOD’s love for you. There is a purpose for your life and a reason for your existence. GOD’s plans include a future filled with hope and nowhere does it contain a hopeless existence that wallows in negativism and self-pity.

The place to discover the truths about your life is the Holy Bible, which is your Manufacturer’s Manual.

Not only does the Bible contain intricate details about human life before birth, it also gives information about the present and points you to what to expect in the future as well.

The Word of GOD is TRUTH as well as REALITY, and is also a PERSON- the LORD JESUS CHRIST.

“In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God”. (John 1:1)

Before human became a living soul, we are told in the Scriptures that GOD made two great lights, the sun and the moon. The greater light rules the day while the lesser light rules the night. (Genesis1:16; Psalm 136:7-9).

Logically, the greater light should have been made to rule the night because the night is darker than the day. But not so with GOD, HIS thoughts are out of this world.

The Word of GOD is the light of humans. In the Gospel of Saint John, we are informed that the ‘Light’ in heaven is JESUS CHRIST. And as the one true light HE came to give light to everyone. (John 1:1-9).

The more you grow in your relationship with JESUS CHRIST, the more spiritual enlightenment will occur for you. And the more you will grow in self-esteem.   Find your identity in CHRIST JESUS by believing in HIM. The Bible says the one who believes will never be ashamed. GOD bless you.- Hephzibah Christly
