Don’t leave God out of your plans – Js 4:13-17

 James 4:13-14 Come now, you who say, “Today or tomorrow we will go to such and such a city, and spend a year there and engage in business and make a profit.” Yet, you do not know what your life will be like tomorrow. You are just a vapor that appears for a little while and then vanishes away.”

 It is NOT a sin to plan ahead.  Isaiah 14:24 -- The Lord of hosts has sworn saying, “Surely, just as I have intended so it has happened, and just as I have planned so it will stand….”

 ”Commit your works to the Lord and your plans will be established”

 Where does God fit in our planning?  Secular mindset separates God from ordinary life.  Faith/God holds only a small place.

 We are a vapor.  We don’t know what our life will be like tomorrow.  So – how should we make our plans?

 A planning mistake.  What shall I do?  I will tear down my barns and build larger.  I will say to my soul….

 God’s will permeates every aspect of our existence.

 Matthew 6:10 -- ‘Your kingdom come. Your will be done, On earth as it is in heaven.

 And He went a little beyond them, and fell on His face and prayed, saying, “My Father, if it is possible, let this cup pass from Me; yet not as I will, but as You will.”

 Do you not believe that I am in the Father, and the Father is in Me? The words that I say to you I do not speak on My own initiative, but the Father abiding in Me does His works.

 Vs Therefore, to one who knows the right thing to do and does not do it, to him it is sin.

 Pray more?  Study more?  Share the gospel more?  Sin less?  Visit the sick?  Contribute more?  Forgive my brother/sister  But never did it?

 As we serve.  As we pray.  As we study.  As we teach.  As we preach.  As we visit.
