On Day 12 we asked a lot of fairly serious questions. It might overwhelm us if we did not know that God had written all our days down in His book. (Psalms 139: 16 NIV) Each time we turn one of our days over to Him, I can see Him smiling because He already knows all of the plans He has for us. It stands to reason that we would be wise to check with Him before we go ahead and proceed on our own. God wants us to be established in the good plans that He has ready and waiting for us (Proverbs 16:3 AMPC).
You might say, “Don’t I get to choose my plans?” Of course! We know that everyone has their own choices to make but when we align ourselves with God’s plan for us, we are guaranteed to be established so we can succeed.
The word “establish” means to set things in order permanently. Have you ever had those times when everything just falls into place?? Maybe you can’t see your desired destination from where you are but you know you are headed in that direction. You are on the right track and it feels so good.
Here’s how it works:
Surrender your plans to God—commit your concerns to God.
Thank Him that He causes you to think like He thinks.
Praise Him for guiding you in the right direction.
I can guarantee that you will enjoy your new way of living, based on a solid foundation of peace and security.
Proverbs 16:3 (ESV) Your plans will be set in order
2 Samuel 23:5 (NLT) He will ensure your safety and success
1 Corinthians 14:33 (NLT) You will be established in peace
