The Bible

Hey there!

I hope you’re doing good! 
Today’s topic is The Bible. Let’s get into it!

First of all I want to tell you that the bible is not just some sort of old historic book with some stories from the past but the bible is actually a book of wisdom and teachings. It’s a way that God uses to communicate to us.

So why do we read the bible?
- It has rules and tips for our life: these rules God has given to us not to harm and annoy us, but to keep us secure and help us. Like parents give rules to their kids so that their kids will be amazing, smart, well-behaving people as adults. God is that kind of parent too.
- It’s a way to get to know God and understand His ways more.
- It’s a way to understand what God wants this world to be.
- It’s a way for God to show us what He has planned for our lives.
- It has examples for us: other christians that go trough similar stuff as us.

So with the bible God communicates with us very often. 
Trough the bible we are also able to minister to others because the bible is the word of God. We can show people the word of God so that they can see a proof on the words that we speak to them.


Here is God’s communication model wich might be helpful...:

Plans

Hi there!

Today’s topic is ”Plans”. We all make plans, big ones or small ones. Now as Christians we always need to involve God in our plans.
Let’s discuss this topic with some bible verses.





These two verses basically say the same: we plan but God will establish our steps.

You have probably heard people say that you need to surrender everything to God and He will lead you, He has a plan for you,...
This is so true! But it doesn’t mean that we can’t plan anything in our hearts. You might have ideas what you want to do. You might have plans. That’s okey! You don’t need to stop planning BUT God will show you if those plans are according to His plan or not. That is exactly what the word ‚establish‘ means (=to get proof of something). 
That’s why you need to surrender to God and let Him be in „control“ of you and let Him guide you. His plans are perfect and everyone wants a perfect plan ;).



Sometimes, like in this verse, people might want to „kill“ our plan. They might push you in another direction, press you from every side, persecute you,... but if your plan has been established by God then those people (or things) will never be able to „kill/destroy“ that plan. Your plan is secure trough God!

Have a blessed week!
