“Many are the plans in an individual’s coronary heart, however it’s the Lord’s function that prevails.” (Proverbs 19:21 NIV)
Sarcastically, I had plans to take my non-profit and my Godpreneur ministry to new heights, however once I gave it to the Lord a few years again, what I felt again from God was….”It is not your time but, Alex.” I felt the Lord needed me to deal with my firm and develop it tremendously. And God assured me that, in a while, in HIS timing, He and He alone would take my Godpreneur stroll to locations I can not think about.
My level is that I made plans, even ministerial plans, and God was capable of give them a spot in time for me.
Planning to your firm isn’t a nasty factor. In actual fact, the Bible tells us that we are going to harvest what we plant (Galatians 6:7), so we needs to be diligent—not lazy—to correctly put together for the longer term. However we should concurrently maintain these plans loosely, as a result of God is aware of the total image of our entrepreneurial journey.
God is at all times working in and thru His folks (us Godpreneurs), giving us the need and energy to do what pleases Him (Philippians 2:13). However generally, we require rerouting. Typically what we wish for our enterprise lives isn’t in His plan.
Nevertheless even once we don’t get what we’ve hoped for, He at all times has our good and His glory in thoughts.
Jesus modeled the right way to give up His personal plans by actually giving His life up for us—for our freedom. And, regardless that it wasn’t simple, our enterprise lives and our futures look totally different as a result of God’s function prevailed.
So right now, make an inventory of a few of your small business plans and desires. Then maintain your arms out in entrance of you, and visualize giving your entire desires and plans over to God. Image all of these plans evaporating out of your arms. Then, ask God to indicate you which of them plans He desires to provide again to you and if there are any new desires He’s longing so that you can obtain.
