This month we are diving into scripture to learn and trust that God has good plans for us.
It’s easy to feel unsure about the future when life feels unpredictable, but God’s Word reminds us that His plans are always rooted in love, hope, and purpose.
We may not always understand what He’s doing, but we can be confident that He is working behind the scenes for our good.
No matter what season you’re in, this study will encourage you to hold onto hope and walk in faith, knowing that God’s plans for you are good, even when you can’t see them yet.
For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the Lord, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future. Jeremiah 29:11 NIV
A Prayer for the Month:
Heavenly Father, thank You for reminding me that Your plans for my life are good, even when things feel uncertain. I surrender my plans to You and trust Your perfect timing and higher ways. Replace my fear with faith and my worry with peace. Help me to be patient and courageous, knowing You are working behind the scenes for my good. Thank You for being faithful in every season and for giving me hope, purpose, and a future. In Jesus’ name, Amen.
He Has Good Plans for You!
God has good plans for us—plans that are filled with hope, purpose, and a future.
Even when life feels messy or uncertain, we can trust that He is working behind the scenes for our good.
Jeremiah 29:11 reminds us that God’s plans are never to harm us but to give us hope and a future.
His timing may not always match ours, but His ways are higher, and His perspective is greater.
When we surrender our plans to Him and trust His guidance, we can walk forward with peace, knowing that the One who created us is also the One directing our path.
Sometimes, it’s hard to see God’s good plans when we’re in the middle of a storm. We may feel like everything is falling apart, but often, God is simply shifting things to fit His greater purpose.
Just like Joseph, who went from the pit to the palace, God can take what was meant for harm and use it for good. Our job is not to figure out every detail but to trust Him every step of the way.
When we lean on His promises instead of our fears, we begin to see that setbacks are often setups for something greater.
No matter what season you’re in, you can be confident that God’s plans are still in motion, and His goodness will always prevail.
