God's Beautiful Plans

Phillip and me. Sept. 10, 1977, the day God's beautiful plan began!

“ ‘For I know the plans that I have for you’ declares the Lord, ‘plans for welfare and not for calamity to give you a future and a hope. Then you will call upon Me, and come and pray to Me, and I will listen to you. You will seek Me and find Me when you search for Me with all your heart.’”    (Jer. 29:11-13)

Thought for the day:

Our God is the initiator of plans: specific and detailed plans. Dr. Henry Blackaby says that sometimes God stirs things up in our lives to cause us to search after Him. He promises that if you come to Him and seek after Him with all your heart, then you will find God and His plans. God has good plans for you to give you a hopeful future!

Application:

            1.              Name one plan that you know God had for your life that has been accomplished:

                      _______________________________________________________________            

2.              Do you feel you are in the center of God’s plan for you right now?

YES     NO

3.              If no, what does God tell you to do in Jer. 29:12-13 to find His plan?

_______________________________________________________

4.              If yes, what are you doing to follow His plan? ______________________

Your prayer for the day:  Lord Jesus, please _____________________________

My prayer for you today: 

O Father, thank You for the good plans You have for ______________ (your name). I pray that he/she will seek You with all of his/her heart and that he/she will find You and Your plans!  In Jesus’ name. Amen and Amen.
