Life Will Bring Many Different Plans For Us To Follow, The Question Is ... Are You Following God's Plan For Your Life?

Are you following God?   Are you following His plan for your life?    A plan is a method of acting, doing, proceeding, and making things happen.    It is a specific project and definite purpose.    What we have to understand is that there are different plans, derived by different people, for different purposes.   We have plans that we have made up ourselves, the enemy has a plan for us, people make plans for us, and God has a plan for us.   God's plan is the ultimate plan.   In other words, His plan triumphs every other plan that has been derived concerning our lives.    What we have to do is learn how to follow His plan, so that we can be quick to walk in our purpose.

God said in His Word that He knows the plans that He has for us.   We just have to learn how to put our faith, hope, and trust in "God's plan".   When you have total trust in someone or something, you don't worry about how things are "looking", you have faith in knowing that everything is subject to change based on the plan that has put in place.    Think about baking a cake.   As you add the individual ingredients, the eggs, the milk, and the flour.   While you are going through the process of mixing the cake, it doesn't look like something that is light, fluffy, and good to eat but in the end, it is.    We have to stop looking at the process of life that we are going through and we have to keep our mind's eye on the end result God has promised.

In order to follow God, we must do our best to walk in obedience to His Word.   Although we are not perfect, we can strive for perfection.    Instead of walking in what we know to be wrong, we have to begin to follow what we know to be right.   It's time to lay down the plans that we have derived for our lives and follow the plan that God has set in place for our lives.   Let God be your guide and know that He is also your rearguard.
