Isaiah 5:19

" to those who say" Let God hurry, let him hasten his work so we may see it. Let it approach, let the plan of the Holy One of Israel come, so we may know it." Isaiah 5:19
When I first read this verse this morning, I did not really grasp its meaning. It is speaking to a people who are demanding to know God's plan and essentially mocking Him and not believing He is real.
All I saw at the time was what I needed to see. That God has a plan! He has a plan and it WILL come. Not in our time but His. He also has included you and me in that plan according to Ephesians 1:11-14. By the blood of Christ. I needed to hear that this morning when feelings of purposelessness and lies of Satan were trying to re-wallpaper my mind.
God has a plan and I am part of it. All I need to do is obey. To lay my life before Him each morning and seek His will not mine. To be faithful in the small things and leave the big up to Him. I am not to demand God show me His whole plan, merely what I need to do today. To follow in his footprints and do my best.
Father God, thank you for your Word and for your promises.
