Throughout Scripture God assures us that he has a plan for each of our lives. His plan is our blessed life now and the path for eternal blessing in heaven. Our priority is clear. We want to know God so that we can walk with him on the path he has set for our lives. Yet Scripture also makes clear that none of us walk through our lives perfectly in his will.

Thankfully, Scripture also teaches us of God’s love, grace, and redemption. God stands ready to guide us back to his plan if we will repent and return to his leadership in our lives.

If we fully understood the perfection of God’s plan, we would never question the directions he provides. The Lord will “fulfill his purpose” in our lives. His purpose is motivated and controlled by his steadfast love for us, which “endures forever.” God has a perfect plan designed for this life that will result in the blessings and rewards of our lives eternal.

We are not to live this life simply waiting for our eternal rewards. We are to live this life joyfully knowing we are given daily opportunities to receive those rewards. “The work of our hands” is simply our obedience to his divine guidance. Those are the works that will be blessed eternally.

God’s plan is to be our high priority because God’s plan will fulfill his purpose for our lives. We need to live confidently knowing that God’s priorities are wisdom. When we want his plan for our lives, we will want his direction and seek to follow the Holy Spirit’s leadership each day.

God’s priorities are wisdom, motivated by his steadfast love that endures forever. What has God planned for your life tomorrow? Will you make the answer to that question your high priority for prayer?
