Never has this promise being more apt and encouraging than these times that we have found ourselves. Take a quick look at happenings around the world and you will find yourself hoping that the Supreme One has a plan in the mist of this world-wide chaos and worrisome events unfolding.
Our God has a plan and it cannot be thwarted! Behold how his plan for the redemption of man through the sending of his son Jesus unfolded – Jesus came as a Baby. All the elements of creation recognized this: the stars could not be quiet! They told the news to those who understood the language and those ones revealed the news to the human enemy. All hell breaks loose! A search begins! Who is he? Where is he? Find him! Kill him! Chaos! The killing of the innocent happens and through it all, God preserves his Son, he had a plan— a strategy! As the hordes of hell thrashed around seeking to kill this person; this plan, He laughs! And says:
‘Oh no! Not yet! I know your plan, Satan, to kill! But not just yet!’
It’s surprising to know that through all of this, the hordes of hell were unable to decipher His plan until its accomplishment. If they couldn’t decipher His plan for our redemption – a plan that seemed like it was in plain sight, what makes you think Satan and all his minions can decipher His plan for you?
‘For I know the plans that I have for you!’
Nothing could stop the fulfillment of His plan for Jesus, and ultimately us, because Jesus trusted Him and His plan even when all his senses screamed no! Enough! It hurts!
Trust God and trust His plan, children of God!
Are you a child of God? Have you joined his family? Do you know there’s a plan as well for those not in His family? See Revelation 21:8. His plans for a future and hope belong to His children. And you can be a part of his family today!
