WHAT IS OUR PLAN?

 
 
Isaiah 14:24

 

"The Lord of hosts has sworn: 'As I have planned, so shall it be, and as I have purposed, so shall it stand.'" ESV

 

Whether we make plans for our day or for our lives, it is a very wise thing to make sure these plans are tentative. God may have other plans for us and His plan trumps ours.

 

Heavenly Father, thank You for being in control of our lives. Help us to make our plans with the knowledge that You may have a totally different direction for us. Show us how to be ready to change the plan, whether it is a plan for today or for our whole life's journey. In the name of Jesus' we pray, Amen.

PLANS OF THE HEART

 
 
Proverbs 16:9
 
"The plans of the heart belong to man, but the answer of the tongue is from the Lord." ESV
 
It seems so natural to say to ourselves, "Today I will do this or that," or "next year we plan to do this." It not only seems natural, it is natural. It is a part of our natural man that seeks to satisfy it's own needs and desires. Regardless of what we might plan for our future, it is the Lord God who unfolds His perfect plan for our lives and His glory. Regardless of the state of our hearts, God is still in control of everything.
 
Heavenly Father, we ask Your forgiveness for making our own plans without taking thought to come to You in prayer asking for Your guidance. Help us to remember that You are in control of all we do and all that happens to us. Bring to our remembrance that Your plan will unfold, no matter what our plan is. We pray in Jesus' name, Amen.
