August 21 – Planning with Forethought


“Lord, you are my God;  I will exalt you and praise your name, for in perfect faithfulness you have done wonderful things, things planned long ago.”  Isaiah 25:1 – (NIV)

This verse today is one that can bring encouragement and we might use as a means of expressing our gratitude to our God for all that He has done for us.  It is God who brings the good and wonderful things into our lives and these things were planned long before we experienced them.  That means that He has considered our well being even before we came into this world.  He has made plans for us and for all who believe in Him.  As this verse comes within a prophecy of judgments on the nations and people that rejected God, we take even greater comfort to know that in such times we are offered peace.  God has promised to judge the world and He has promised that we will enjoy eternity with Him.  God's actions are not decided upon suddenly with no forethought, they are planned and faithfully carried out.  For that, we lift up His name and praise Him today.
