I may not see in front of me, But I can see for miles around when I look over my shoulder, and Lord, it`s clear. You`ve brought me here, So faithful every step of the way. What can I do but follow you, For You are the Way, the Truth, the Life, And You`ve promised never to leave me, My Savior, my friend, From beginning to end.

I Am Found In You by Steven Curtis Chapman
Proverbs 16:3
By: Ron Edmondson Friday, February 23, 2007
Commit to the Lord whatever you do and your plans will succeed. Proverbs 16:3

This verse is not a license to do whatever you want and say “God, I’m doing this for you” in hopes that He will bless your plans and give you success. You weren’t thinking that…were you?

I’ve heard so many people misuse this verse. This verse needs to be understood in the greater context of the sovereignty of God. God is in control. God’s plans succeed. God has the final word. God decides how a situation will end.

From that perspective, when you commit your plans to God, you’ll find tremendous success; not because your plans were so great, but because you are relying on the plans of God.

Get in on God’s plans and you’ll find success!
