From Heart Rehab by Jerry Flowers Jr.
One of the most familiar and hope-filled passages of Scripture is Jeremiah 29:11: “‘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’” (NIV).
God knows the plan. It’s not about you, your efforts, or your strength. Through the prophet Jeremiah, God was telling the people of Israel,I got this. I already have things organized for your life. I have plans, and they’re not bad plans, so you have to trust Me.
God is in your future today. God knows your tomorrow today.
Maybe the reason you’re so stressed is not because of everything that’s going on outside you. Perhaps you’re stressed because of the warfare that’s going on in your heart and mind. Your plan and God’s plan are in a battle. That’s why you can’t sleep or your head hurts, why you’re not hungry or you overeat, why you work out so hard but never seem to feel any better, or why you just binge-watch shows. The reason you can never be at peace is because on the inside you’re trying to be God!
Remember, “It is the Lord who goes before you. He will be with you; he will not leave you or forsake you. Do not fear or be dismayed.” Deuteronomy 31:8
Guess what? God is a better Lord than you!
When you want things to turn out a certain way, you’re trying to take God’s job. What you’re ultimately telling God is that you don’t trust how He will write your story.
In verse 1 of Psalm 91, the psalmist says, “Whoever dwells in the shelter of the Most High will rest in the shadow of the Almighty” (NIV). “Dwells” in Hebrew isyashab, which means “to remain” or “abide in.” So, when you understand that the Lord is your refuge and you make the Most High your root system, no harm will overtake you.
God is running things. He is in control. When God is your root system, He nourishes you. God is not just your resource; He is your source.
Dear Heavenly Father, help me remember that You control the outcome. I trust You more than my own efforts. Right now, I surrender everything to You. Heal my heart and direct all my steps. In Jesus’s name, amen.
