God's Plans Win

1 To man belong the plans of the heart,
but from the Lord comes the reply of the tongue.
2 All a man’s ways seem innocent to him,
but motives are weighed by the Lord.
3 Commit to the Lord whatever you do,
and your plans will succeed.

9 In his heart a man plans his course,
but the Lord determines his steps.

~ Proverbs 16:1-3, 9

Commit to the Lord whatever you do, and your plans will succeed. ~ Proverbs 16:3 (NIV 1984)

God's Word Doesn't Return Void

so shall my word be that goes out from my mouth;
it shall not return to me empty,
but it shall accomplish that which I purpose,
and shall succeed in the thing for which I sent it. (ESV)


so is my word that goes out from my mouth:
It will not return to me empty,
but will accomplish what I desire
and achieve the purpose for which I sent it. (NIV 1984)

~ Isaiah 55:11

Your Plans Will Succeed

Commit to the LORD whatever you do, and your plans will succeed. ~ Proverbs 16:3 (NIV 1984)

Have you ever wondered about that verse...I think we sometimes interpret it incorrectly. See, if you commit everything to the Lord, you allow HIM to make the plans and HIS plans ALWAYS succeed.

Plans?

"Commit to the LORD whatever you do, and your plans will succeed."
