Who Knew

The one who calls you by name is trustworthy and will thoroughly complete his work in you.
1 Thessalonians 5:24 TPT

Have you ever had a dream or a plan that didn’t turn out as you expected? Expectations and manifestations can end up bringing disappointments.

It’s not wrong to dream. It’s not wrong to plan. What’s wrong is not allowing for Gods plans in the equation. We all do this. It’s a human part of us. I call it unrealistic expectations.

Let me give you an example. Joseph had some really cool dreams, but his process was a really rough road. So God had some great plans to protect His people during an extremely hard famine, but the way He did it was not something Joseph expected at all.

Do you remember Miss Esther? I’m pretty sure her plans for her future were not to be kidnapped and primed to be a favorite with the King. But God set her up to save her people by exposing an evil agenda.

Well, guess what? God has plans for you, too. He may not share the details with you, but the outcome will fulfill something deep in you.

Psalm 37:23 goes along with that verse as well. The steps of a man are established by the Lord, and He delights in his way.

Make room for God when you make your plans. It will benefit you in the long run. The journey may be crazy. It may look foreign to you. You may not even speak the language. But if you trust Him, and you can, you’ll be pleasantly surprised with the outcome.
