My Plans Are Thine

"We make our own plans, but the LORD decides where we will go." Prov. 16:9

How do you make plans for the future? You must wean yourself from the world's wisdom and always seek the will of God. A servant has no plans except that which the Master has ordained. His plans will always be made known to you in the form of His word (the Bible), solid preaching and godly counsel. 

Trust the Lord and do good. Settle it within yourself that God is overall. Take one step and ask God to illuminate the next. No need to fret. With God for us who can be against us? Have faith, dear child. Your only plan ought to be - Lord, here I am, send me.

What are you willing to lose when you stop planning? Your reputation perhaps. Can you sell all for the gospel? Can you live without material comfort? Life is more than food and the body more than clothes. Put Jesus first and you will have no regrets. Planning is unnecessary.
