STICK TO THE PLAN
Updated: Apr 27, 2022
It's easier to follow instructions that are written out for you. Things tend to get lost in translation. It's the age old tale of that 30lb bass the 5 year old with no fishing experience pulled in, all by himself. Or was it the 5lb bass pulled in by the 30year old man.
There is nothing like seeing it with your own eyes. It is always the doing that brings fulfillment to the desires fixed in a mans heart (Jm1:22). Ask yourself what are the characteristics of a plan, let's run it down. plan: a detailed proposal, intentions, decisions about what's to be done.
“For I know the plans I have for you, "declares the LORD". plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.” (Jer. 29:11) These word may not have been written to you directly but CHRIST in you the hope of glory carries the blessing for those who serve in HIS name.
The word in this verse that resonates to me is "PLANS" not at all belittling who said it. Man-kind is fixated on one big idea for his life, that will set them free from oppression. Friend that's far from the truth, and a mishandling of the text. The truth is, all our plans rest in GOD, with our lives in HIS hands we find the peace that liberates us. That's where we find our freedom from oppression, in HIS plans for us, on that narrow path.
WHEN THE BIG IDEA COMES?
YOU'LL HAVE PLANS (dreams, daydreams, big ideas).Write it down, re-write it, read it, reread it, say it out loud, regurgitate it. Believe it, believe in it. Convince everyone around you it will work, no matter what they believe or say, or how they try to spin it. DREAM IT, PRAY IT, DO IT!
Written plans give your dreams a voice. Saying the written plan out loud gives you personal reassurance that you have something solid to move on. Speaking allows your creative personality to shine through the clouds of distractions that attacks us all. Believe in yourself, because GOD does, or else "HE" wouldn't have entrusted you with such an awesome idea.
