-Proverbs 21:30 (NIV)
"'For I know the plans I have for you,' declares the Lord, 'plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.'" -Jeremiah 29:11 (NIV)
God has made plans for each of us. He knows where we should be, what we should face, and how we can prosper and be successful. When making our plans, we should always rely on God's wisdom and guidance so that our plans are in line with His plans for us. No earthly wisdom, insight, or plan can measure up to God's wisdom and planning!
When we are faced with making plans or decisions, we should begin by praying and talking to God. We also need to remember to take time to stop and listen to what God is telling us. There may still be disappointments in life, but we need not worry or fear what is to come because God knows all and wants us to have a prosperous future.
When you are thinking about the future, planning the next steps in the journey of life, or making decisions, talk to God, listen to what He is saying, and align your thinking with His plans so you can be prosperous for Him!
Prayer:
Dear God-
Thank You for wanting me to be prosperous. Thank You for providing hope and a future for me. Please help me to seek Your wisdom, the greatest wisdom, and follow the plan that You have for me. In Jesus' name I pray, amen.
