Today's Scripture
For 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. (Jeremiah 29:11, NIV)
Today's Word from Joel and Victoria
In life, we all experience things that are unexpected. But when something unplanned happens, we have to realize that its no surprise to God.
Maybe you are dealing with some sort of loss. It hit you unexpectedly. You could be discouraged and overwhelmed and say, I cant believe this is happening. No, have a new perspective. That situation is no surprise to God. It didnt catch Him off guard. He has already anointed you. You have the strength you need. You have the peace, the determination, the confidence. Youre not lacking. Youre anointed! The forces that are for you are greater than the forces that are against you.
In those difficult times, trust that God will see you through. Believe that His plans for your future are for good. Know that even though something caught you off guard, it didnt catch God off guard. He is prepared and ready to lead you to the place of victory.
A Prayer for Today
Father, thank You for Your hand of goodness on my life. I know that You see every unexpected and uncertain circumstance in my life. I trust that You will go before me and prepare the way for victory in Jesus name. Amen.
