James #9: My Faith & My Plans 

August 4, 2024

James #9: My Faith & My Plans 
Pastor Blake Hanson | James 4:13-17 | 8.4.24

 

Two reasons people fail to plan: 

 

1) The plan never works so we planning. 

 

2) We stick to “our” plans what. 

 

How does my faith work when it comes to life planning? 

 

James 4:13–17 (NIV)

13 Now listen, you who say, “Today or tomorrow we will go to this or that city, spend a year there, carry on business and make money.” 

14 Why, you do not even know what will happen tomorrow. What is your life? You are a mist that appears for a little while and then vanishes. 

15 Instead, you ought to say, “If it is the Lord’s will, we will live and do this or that.” 

16 As it is, you boast in your arrogant schemes. All such boasting is evil. 

17 If anyone, then, knows the good they ought to do and doesn’t do it, it is sin for them.

 

Start with the of God to navigate the uncertainties of life.

14 What is your life? You are a mist that appears for a little while and then vanishes.

 

Ask for God’s will and stop . 

 

James 4:15 (NIV)

15 Instead, you ought to say, “If it is the Lord’s will, we will live and do this or that.” 

 

James 4:6 (NIV)

6 “God opposes the proud but shows favor to the humble.”

 

Isaiah 55:8–9 (NIV)

8 “For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways,” declares the Lord. 

9 “As the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways and my thoughts than your thoughts.

 

Proverbs 16:3 (NIV)

3 Commit to the Lord whatever you do, and he will establish your plans.

 

Walk humbly with . 

 

James 4:16 (NIV)
