June 24, 2010 ~ His Plans are Greater

God's plan is greater than all of ours...often we need to step

back and really take in the vastness of His blessing...


TODAY'S SCRIPTURE:

"As the heavens are higher than the earth, so are My ways higher than your ways and My thoughts than your thoughts"

Isaiah 55:9

Selah people' and friends have you been praying and standing on God's Word for something and you haven't seen the results yet?

The scripture says in John 11 verse 6, "When Jesus heard that Lazarus was sick, He stayed where He was two more days." One translation says, "He sat down." Don't you know that was the opposite response that Lazarus' family was looking for? "Jesus, don't sit down when we need You the most." In other words, "God, don't sit down when my finances are this low." "Don't sit down when my problems are this big." But in the end, God not only healed Lazarus, He raised him from the dead!

Your mind may be telling you it's over, it's too late, it's never going to happen. No, you've got to know there is a reason for the delay. God is planning something greater. You're thinking of a healing. He is thinking of a resurrection. You may be thinking how can I just survive, but God is thinking how you can thrive.


Remember, His ways are higher than your ways, and you can trust that He is going to amaze you with His goodness in every area of your life!

OUR PRAYER FOR TODAY:

"Father God, today I choose to trust in You. I trust that You are working behind the scenes on my behalf. I release all of my cares and concerns to You knowing that You have a greater plan in store for me. In Jesus' Name. Amen."


Your brother in Christ,
