Is God
just one of your options
as you scramble to find solutions?
Do you pray to Him
and then leave your options open?
Do you forget
His sovereign hand
in your life?
He is not meant to be
an option
Plan A
Plan B
C
or D
He is meant to be
THE Plan
May we put away the
just-in-case-He-doesn’t-answer
mentality
He is the Final Word
the Sure Foundation
the Answer
the LORD
all falls beneath
His title
His hand
His authority
His Love
So next time you pray to Him,
resist formulating Plan B in your head
as if He may not
come through
Trust
Wait
Praise
Worship
Your all-knowing God
Faith says
there is no Plan B

If you don’t know what you’re doing, pray to the Father. He loves to help. You’ll get His help, and won’t be condescended to when you ask for it. Ask boldly, believingly, without a second thought. People who “worry their prayers” are like wind-whipped waves. Don’t think you’re going to get anything from the Master that way, adrift at sea, keeping all your options open.
– James 1:5-8 (MSG)
Abraham was first named “father” and then became a father because he dared to trust God to do what only God could do: raise the dead to life, with a word make something out of nothing. When everything was hopeless, Abraham believed anyway, deciding to live not on the basis of what he saw he couldn’t do but on what God said He would do. And so he was made father of a multitude of peoples. God Himself said to him, “You’re going to have a big family, Abraham!”
– Romans 4:18 (MSG)
