God Holds our Future





Ephesians 1:11 -In Him also we have obtained an inheritance, being predestined according to the purpose of Him who works all things according to the counsel of His will. 

Jeremiah 29:11 -For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, says the LORD, thoughts of peace and not of evil, to give you a future and a hope. 
We don’t know what the future holds-but we do know
the one who holds the future! 


We have all been disappointed at some time. It would be surprising if we went through the week without encountering some kind of disappointment. We are appointed (set in a certain direction) for something to happen a certain way, and when it doesn’t happen that way, we become disappointed.
 
 Phillippians 4:6-7  Interpret -6 Don't worry about anything, but pray about everything. With thankful hearts offer up your prayers and requests to God.  Because you belong to Christ Jesus, God will bless you with peace that no one can completely understand. And this peace will control the way you think and feel.

Proverbs 3:5-6 Interpret- With all your heart you must trust the LORD and not your own judgment. Always let him lead you, and he will clear the road for you to follow.

WHAT IS TRUST -Assured reliance on the character, ability, strength, or truth of someone or something. One in which confidence is placed.
 
Ephesians 3:20 - Now unto him that is able to do exceeding abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that worketh in us.


John 14:27 -Peace I leave with you, my peace I give unto you: not as the world giveth, give I unto you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid.

Interpret -God is able to do far more than we could ever ask for or imagine. He does everything by his power that is working in us

Prov 3:5-6 Trust in the LORD with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding. 6 In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths.


Phil 4:6-7 Be careful for nothing; but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God. 7And the peace of God, which passeth all understanding, shall keep your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus.
