« You may make your plans, but God directs your actions »
20 If you listen to advice and are willing to learn, one day you will be wise.
21 People may plan all kinds of things, but the Lord’s will is going to be done.
It is not wise to start planning for something when you are already in it.
Some people plan their year in the beginning of the year; no wonder they hardly achieve anything meaningful in that year.
You cannot begin to plan for a battle when you are already in the midst of it.
Have you ever seen someone planning their wedding on the wedding day?
Or begin to study for an examination in the exam hall when question papers are already being distributed?
Why then do you wait until the new year/month before you begin to plan for it ?
Now, if I were to ask to see your plan for the remaining of 2025, would you have something to show me?
Note that I said show me and not tell me, because I believe that any serious Christian will live by Habakkuk 2:2 GWT which says:
« Then the LORD answered me, “Write the vision. Make it clear on tablets so that anyone can read it quickly »
If you would not have anything to show me, then you need to go to the drawing board and do a proper plan for the year 2025.
Having established the need for you to plan ahead of the New Year, it is important that you commit those plans to the hands of God.
Before you were formed in your mother’s womb, God had a plan and agenda for your life.
It does not matter how meticulous your plan is, if it is not in line with His agenda for you, you may end up struggling to get your footing this year.
Let Him know that all you care about is that His will is done and nothing else.
Tell Him, just like our memory verse says, that you may have planned your way, but you need Him to direct your steps.
God is not responsible for whatever is not committed to His hands;
if you say you know exactly what you want to do this year and you don’t need His help, He will simply stand back and watch.
But if you call on Him to direct your footsteps, He will take you to greater heights and help you far beyond your imaginations.
Application – this year, put Gods will above yours, always.
