God’s Plan for You

God’s plan for you is good. God’s plan for you is what is best for you.

God’s plan for you is for your benefit, for your good, for what is going to be the best thing in your life.  It’s also for His glory, and for a witness to His greatness.

God’s plan for you is good this morning.

Listen to what God says today in Jeremiah 29:11

For I know the plans I have for you,” says the Lord. “They are plans for good and not for disaster, to give you a future and a hope.

God’s plan for you is good. It will give you a future and a hope.

Now, not to go all seminary professor on you this morning, but these words were said to God’s people before something bad was going to happen. They were going to be defeated in battle, see the Temple destroyed, see Jerusalem destroyed, and be taken off to Babylon for 70 years.

They were in for a rough time. It was not going to be fun.

And before all that bad stuff happened, God said – I have a plan for you. A good plan. A plan for your benefit. A plan for you good.

Now, this plan won’t always be easy. It won’t always be fun. It won’t always be what we have chosen. God’s plan is not our plan.

But, God’s plan is good.  It’s for our benefit. It’s for our good.

Trust.  God knows what He is doing. Trust.

It’s for your good.  God knows what He is doing.
