Scripture: Proverbs 19:21, "Many are the plans in the mind of a man, but it is the purpose of the LORD that will stand."
Dear brethren,
As we gather today, let us remember the sovereignty of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. In a world filled with uncertainty and chaos, it is easy to become overwhelmed by the plans and schemes of men. However, we are reminded in Proverbs 19:21 that it is the purpose of the Lord that will stand.
In our daily lives, we often find ourselves consumed by the need to control and manipulate our circumstances. We make plans and set goals, only to be disappointed when things do not go as expected. But let us take heart, for our God is in control.
As we read in Ephesians 1:11, "In him we were also chosen, having been predestined according to the plan of him who works out everything in conformity with the purpose of his will." Our God has a plan for each and every one of us, and He is working all things together for our good and His glory.
Let us trust in His sovereignty and submit our lives to His will. Let us seek His kingdom first and His righteousness, knowing that all other things will be added unto us (Matthew 6:33).
As we go about our day, let us remember that He is our rock and our refuge, our strong tower in times of trouble. Let us rest in His sovereignty, knowing that He is working all things together for our good.
May we be filled with His peace and joy, as we trust in His sovereign will.
