What does it say?
People make plans, but ultimately, God holds the future. Success and peace come by pleasing God and committing one’s plans to Him.
What does it mean?
God is sovereign, which means that He is in control of everything. His purposes take precedence over any human plan – no matter how noble. This doesn’t mean that making plans is a worthless effort, but plans must line up with what God has determined to do. God knows the heart and sees the motives behind the plans. Since God gives guidance and direction for the plans He initiates, any planning must begin with consulting Him for His will. Successful plans are the product of completely surrendering one’s heart and future to our sovereign God.
How should I respond?
Too often, we set goals and ask God to bless our plans after we have it all figured out. The order needs to be reversed. Go to God first. Commit your life to obedience and trust in Him. He will then mold your heart and mind in such a way that you’ll begin to see the plan He already has in motion. If you are willing to let go of your grip on your own ideas, His will can be successfully carried out in and through your life. God’s plan is always better than anything we could think or imagine (Eph. 3:20). Simply put, surrendering to our sovereign Lord brings success. What goal or plan are you holding too tightly? Are you willing to let God bend you and your plan to align with His will?
