Do NOT make ANY plans WITHOUT GOD

Planning helps an organization chart a course for the achievement of its goals. Confucius has once said: “A man who does not plan long ahead will find trouble at his door.” Richard Cushing has further counseled: “Always plan ahead. It wasn’t raining when Noah built the ark”.

However, in the above passage Apostle James specifically exhorts us that we should not make any plans apart from God and boast about them. Since we have absolute no control over our lives or over the events that may happen in our lives, we should never boast about our short-range and long-range plans without God in the equation. Our lives and our future are in God’s control, and His thoughts and ways are much higher than our thoughts and ways . So, even if we make any plans for our future, let us ensure that they are written using a chalk or pencil asking ourselves the following question: “What if?” and let God have the eraser!

Let us always remember that God should be consulted in all our plans, and they should be made according to His will and based on His Word. We should live and speak in the realization that our destinies are in His control. We should say, “If the Lord wills, we shall live and do this or that.”

Omitting God from our future plans is not merely bad planning; it is sin. We should only make plans in conscious dependence on God, recognizing His sovereign control over our lives. Let all our future plans be only according to God's will and purposes, and His thoughts and plans about us are revealed for us: "For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, says the Lord, thoughts of peace and not of evil, to give you a future and a hope."
