Trust ALL in His Hand

Schmitt_Look_Up_HiResNever be afraid to TRUST your UNKNOWN future in the hands of the KNOWN God who KNOWS the future.

God, your Father, sees the end from the beginning so He knows what would happen at your next move.

Think about this for a moment: Why do people rely on Tomtom navigation system? Maybe you have one in your car. It is simple. They believe that it can direct them to any location they want to go, especially when they want to skip traffic. With the help of satellite, the system is able to tell the shortest route in any day and helps the driver avoid unnecessary delays in traffic.

In the same way, God knows where you want to in Life. He has already programmed everything; He knows the safest routes and shortcuts to your destination and wouldn’t want you to waste time in “avoidable traffic” in life. Therefore, He wants you to tell him where you want to God (or commit everything you want to do to Him), and trust (like you would do to your navigation system) that He will guide you there on time safely.

Did you know that He knew you before you came to your mother’s womb, and He saw you as you were being formed?

In His book is written everything you would do on earth. No wonder Jesus said that the very hairs on your head are all numbered (Luke 12:7); signifying how God pays close attention to your being. Therefore “Roll your works upon the Lord [commit and trust them wholly to Him; He will cause your thoughts to become agreeable to His will, and] so shall your plans be established and succeed. (Proverbs 16:3, AMPC)

COMMIT YOUR ACTIONS TO THE LORD

Posted on by Uplifting Christ

Commit your actions to the Lord, and your plans will succeed. Proverbs 16:3 NLT

Last year some of us didn’t achieve what they planned for at the beginning of the year, and It kind of puzzle them when they think about what they did but their plans couldn’t materialize. The scripture declares that by strength shall no man prevail. That is you cannot do it with your strength my friend. You need God’s help. The ERV puts Proverbs 16:3 this way; “Turn to the Lord for help in everything you do, and you will be successful.”

Whatever happened last year, last two months, or even last month belongs to the past. You cannot do anything about it. However, you can make plans today to be successful tomorrow. This is what I want to encourage you to do; Commit your actions to the Lord, turn to the Lord for help in everything you do.

There is a path before each person that seems right, but it ends in death. The actions or whatever you want to do may seem right in your sight, you may think because it worked for your friend, family member, or your mentor, it will work for you. But the end for you may be death; Death in your health, finances, business, family, education, relationship, etc.

God wants you to be fruitful. He wants you be successful in everything you do. He wants to do the work behind the scenes for you. But he wouldn’t do that without your approval. He wants you to trust everything in His care. Sometime people wonder why I easily get things done. I tell there is no trick. What I do is I put God in charge of my affairs and He has never disappointed me. When I get up in the morning, I commit whatever I would do in the day to Him. He shows me what to do, and in the end, everything I planned to do succeeds. He is a faithful God.

Friend, I believe you will do the same from today. Commit to the Lord whatever you do, and your plans will succeed in Jesus’ Name.

PUT GOD IN CHARGE OF YOUR WORK

Posted on by Uplifting Christ

Roll your works upon the Lord [commit and trust them wholly to Him; He will cause your thoughts to become agreeable to His will, and] so shall your plans be established and succeed. (Proverbs 16:3 AMP)

The scripture says God has engraved you on the palms of his hands. (Isaiah 49:16 NIV84), and He saw you before you were born. Every day of your life was recorded in His book. Every moment was laid out before a single day had passed. (Psalms 139:16 NLT). God has all your days in the palms of His hands so when you put Him in charge of whatever you do, it takes the pressure away. You do not worry anymore about whether or not your plans will succeed because you trust that God is working things out for your good.

This is what the Lord says: “Cursed is the one who trusts in man, who depends on flesh for his strength and whose heart turns away from the Lord . “But blessed is the man who trusts in the Lord , whose confidence is in him. (Jeremiah 17:5, 7 NIV84)

Some believers trust in their strength, some trust in their wealth, bank accounts, and who they know. Such people worry about the future, they doubt God, and they are unstable in what they do. They are cursed. But those who trust in the Lord are blessed, and they live a worry free life. Be encourage today to put God in charge of your works and your plans will be established and succeed. Don’t be tempted to commit your big projects to The Lord and try to take care of the small day to day activities. God wants to take care of them all.

Casting the whole of your care [all your anxieties, all your worries, all your concerns, once and for all] on Him, for He cares for you affectionately and cares about you watchfully. (1 Peter 5:7 AMP)
