Pastor Bell's Words To Live By

The plans of the heart belong to man, but the answer of the tongue is from the LORD.  All the ways of a man are pure in his own eyes, but the LORD weighs the spirit. When a man’s ways please the LORD, he makes even his enemies to be at peace with him. The heart of man plans his way, but the LORD establishes his steps (Proverbs 15:1-2, 7&9 NASB).

We should all make plans but plans that are made without consultation tend to fail.  Our sage tells that we devise many plans in our hearts, but it the Lord’s purposes for our lives that will be established. So the Lord weighs our spirit, that is, he assesses the sum of our plans and guides us to those that are viable and those that are not. For every plan we make there are those who wants them to fail. These are the enemies who try to abort the purposes that God has for us. However, the Lord says he will establish our steps when we commit our plans and ambitions to him.

Today, be ambitious but ensure that you bring your plans and desires to the Lord so that he can make a pronouncement over them. When God breathes on your plans they will never fail.
