Confidence in God's Plan
Confidence in God's plan gives me peace as I write, knowing He directs my steps and ensures His words reach those who need them. His timing is perfect, and His purpose will be accomplished.
As I sit down to write, I am filled with a deep sense of confidence in my God. I believe wholeheartedly that whatever I put down on paper is exactly what He wants written. This confidence is not born out of my own abilities, but out of trust in the One who guides my pen. The words that flow from my heart are His, and their purpose is set by Him alone.
Proverbs 16:9 reminds us, “The mind of man plans his way, but the Lord directs his steps.” This scripture reassures me that while I may have ideas and plans for my writing, it is ultimately God who directs and determines its path. I trust that where my work is posted or published is in His hands and according to His perfect timing.
God's timing is always precise, and His plans are without flaw. I know that whoever is meant to read what I write, God will ensure they do. He arranges divine appointments, bringing the right message to the right person at the right moment. There are no coincidences with God; everything happens by His design. Because of this, I do not worry about the reach of my writing—God has already determined who needs to see it and when.
Isaiah 55:11 beautifully illustrates this truth: “So will My word be which goes forth from My mouth; It will not return to Me empty, without accomplishing what I desire, and without succeeding in the matter for which I sent it.” This verse assures me that God's words, spoken through me, will achieve their intended purpose. They will reach those who need to hear them and will accomplish what He desires.
As I write, I do so with the understanding that my words are part of a greater plan. Whether they offer comfort, guidance, encouragement, or conviction, God uses them to touch hearts and transform lives. I am merely a vessel through which His message flows. I am reminded of 1 Timothy 1:12, “I thank Christ Jesus our Lord, who has strengthened me, because He considered me faithful, putting me into service.” It is only by His strength that I am able to do this.
In moments of doubt or uncertainty, I remind myself that God is in control. He knows who needs to encounter the words He has given me, and He will make it happen. This confidence in His sovereignty gives me peace and allows me to write with freedom and faith.
I will continue writing with boldness, knowing that He is the One who directs my steps and accomplishes His purpose through the words He has given me. As Psalm 138:8 says, ‘The Lord will accomplish what concerns me; Your faithfulness, Lord, is everlasting; Do not abandon the works of Your hands.’ I trust that He will continue to use my writing for His glory.
