After recently earning my degree, I have been asked a number of times, "What's next?" To be honest, I don't actually know what is coming next. However, as I go about my routines, I begin to see different opportunities in front of me and different doors that begin to crack open. Many of these things are intriguing, but are not things I would have come up with myself!
As we think about plans for the future, we can only be truly successful when we allow God to guide those plans. There is a wrestler that enters to a theme song that exclaims, "Glorious! No, I won't give in 'til I'm victorious and I will defend. I will defend!" As we think about planning for the future, we need to focus on the glory of God and not on ourselves. We cannot see success, glory, or victory without God's guiding hand. Without God's grace, mercy, and redemption, we have nothing that is worth defending. When we stop and listen to God's plans, we will be amazed at how glorious they are and how He will defend us and make us victorious!
Allow God's voice to guide your plans so you can be prosperous and defended for eternity!
Prayer:
Dear God-
Thank You for Your role in the opportunities that I have had in life. Help me to always listen and follow Your advice in my life. In Jesus' name I pray, amen.
