A lot of us set plans and goals for ourselves and especially coming into a new year like this one, oh, it is a must for most of us. It’s a good habit to live by because you cannot walk in life aimlessly, without an agenda or destination. I tell you what though, the problem is not the plans we set for ourselves but it is whether we commit our plans to God and allow Him to perfect these plans according to His will.
Someone asked me, “how do I know God’s plan for me?” In a simple response, it is anything that is good and progresses your life. Anything that does not bring you harm but gives you hope and a future. Most importantly, anything that glorifies God in your life and people can see it and bless God as well. If the plan does not show a God who is glorified through your life, it is not the ultimate plan. (Read Jeremiah 29:11).
Proverbs 19:21
“Many are the plans in a person’s heart, but it is the Lord’s purpose that prevails.”
I have seen how the year can go south when all your plans are scheduled to go upwards so I pray for you that in this year, the Lord’s purpose for our lives will be fulfilled and that purpose will prosper us in every area of our lives and give us total peace. I declare it is so and so it is in Jesus’ name. AMEN!
