#If #it #is #Gods #will, #it #will #happen.
#If #its #not,
#He #has #a #better #plan.
This is a statement that expresses the that God's plans are always for our ultimate good, even when we don't understand them.
It's based on the Bible verse Jeremiah 29:11, which says:
“For I know the plans I have for you, declares the Lord, plans for welfare and not for evil, to give you a future and a hope".
Trusting God’s Plan Even When It Doesn’t Align With Our Plan.
We all have plans.
There’s large plans such as going to college, having a family, or getting a job, and there’s also smaller plans such as going out with friends, going shopping, or making pasta for dinner, going on Holiday.
The list can be endless.
In our mind, most of us have some idea for our future whether it’s ten minutes from now or ten years from now.
The simple truth is this:
We spend so much of our time designing our future and focusing on fulfilling the ideas that we have for ourselves.
But what happens when our plans for ourselves, don’t align with God’s plans for us?
So the at that point, why should we trust God?
Where in the Bible does it say God has a better plan?
Isaiah 55:8-9 reminds us to put our complete trust in God because his ways and plans are always better than our own and to trust that everything included in His plan is for a greater good.
Isaiah 55:8-9 says:
‘For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways,' declares the Lord.
What is the meaning of James 4:15?
When we don't rely on God for our needs, we tend towards envy, competition, and abuse of others.
Here in this verse, James shows how we should demonstrate our awareness of our dependence on God.
This is a deeper issue than simply tacking the words "if the Lord wills" onto any statement of future plans.
What does Psalms 40:8 say?
I desire to do your will, my God; your law is within my heart.”
What is the will of the Father?
But to walk with Him, to obey, to be faithful to respond to Him each moment of each day.
What does Proverbs 16:4 really mean?
This proverb assures us that the Lord is not weak or dependent on man for success.
He is fully in control, assured of His purposes, and makes no mistakes.
The Bible directly tells us that no matter what our plans our, the Lord’s plan is what will come to fruition.
This Scripture is so important because it is stating a fact:
God’s plan triumphs our own, and our life will follow the path that His plan has created.
Whether this aligns with your plans or not!
In other words, people create many plans for themselves throughout their life.
However, these plans will only come to fruition if it is the Lord’s will and if it is part of His plan for you.

I believe one of the greatest blessings in my life is the opposite of which many pray for.
Thank God I don't know the path that God has for me, I know the end result and that's enough.
If we knew the path, many would refuse the journey. Trust the process. Trust in God.
