Does God have a special plan for us?

Question

Sometimes when people face hardship or a death in the family or some natural disaster strikes, they'll be told that God is a mystery and nobody can know why such things happen.

But when you go to church you learn that God *does* have a plan for us - armageddon. Right?

Answer 1

Armageddon is BS. That is just their way of scaring you into believing everything they have to say.

Answer 2

For me a verse that gives me strength to believe that God has a plan for me is Jeremiah 29:11 "For I know the plans I have for you," declares the LORD, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future." But we have to remember that in this sinful world there will always be unfiar terrible things. That is why Gods plan is not to fix the world it is to make it over from scratch. Problem is there are some 6.3 billion beautiful people that He loves here So what does he do? He could bulldose the planet, write the 6.3 billion off as collateral damage and try and forget the whole sorry sin/satan thing or He he could loving wait as long as possible for everyone who wants to escape this crumbiling planet to come to Him. We always think of things from our point of view. If you had a child who was experiencing a lot of pain and agony, if you could wouldn't change palces with them? Would you enjoy seeing them suffer? If we who are sinful can have such feelings for our children, how much more does God's heart break when He looks at this world and see all the troubles?

Answer 3

you're on the properly suited music no rely in case you describe a god a Deity an almighty being a cosmic entity a means or despite we are all area of this large 'element' we've stable and evil interior us we are able to concentration on stable and strengthen ourselves and with time and staying power I definitely have been confident by using my daughter even heal others and attain all that we prefer even our very own restoration from ailments, yet no that's not automatic and you ought to visualise it being so over on occasion an prolonged time before issues start to paintings out. The unfavorable part is that if we at the instant are not sending out stable concepts and behaving in a solid way then we are feeding the unfavorable and ruining it for all people. We ought to unite (or in case you like reunite)on the emotional undeniable doing no injury to others and for some what look as though miracles take place by way of fact the potential of affection is boosted. yet whilst people kill and or otherwise injury others then the means of affection weakens. no rely in case you characteristic it to god or despite it could't be measured or defined like the international and the moon and stars and all of existence it in basic terms is! stable question and very theory scary. properly finished.

Answer 4

For I know the plans I have for you," says the LORD. "They are plans for good and not for disaster, to give you a future and a hope.
Jeremiah 29:11

LORD, see my anguish! My heart is broken and my soul despairs, for I have rebelled against you. In the streets the sword kills, and at home there is only death. Others heard my groans, but no one turned to comfort me. When my enemies heard of my troubles, they were happy to see what you had done. Oh, bring the day you promised, when you will destroy them as you have destroyed me. Look at all their evil deeds, LORD. Punish them, as you have punished me for all my sins. My groans are many, and my heart is faint.
Lamentations 1:20-22

For I know the plans I have for you," says the LORD. "They are plans for good and not for disaster, to give you a future and a hope.
Jeremiah 29:11

And now, may the God of peace, who brought again from the dead our Lord Jesus, equip you with all you need for doing his will. May he produce in you, through the power of Jesus Christ, all that is pleasing to him. Jesus is the great Shepherd of the sheep by an everlasting covenant, signed with his blood. To him be glory forever and ever. So let it be.
Hebrews 13:20

Answer 5

yes. If u wanna understand more just read jeremiah 29:11. It has exactly what u just asked. God knows what He is doing. He's not letting bad and good things happen without having a reason for it to happen. He has a plan for each one of us.

Answer 6

The truth is yes he does. But he has also given us free will. He expects us to excercise all of the gifts he gives us to help us. One of these gifts is "self-preservation". These are natural instincts that assist us in survival. Helping oneself does not exclude the possibility of helping others. Another instinct is "self-perpetuation" and since we need other people to survive and perpetuate ourselves then it would behoove us to help as many people survive as we can. Preparation for any natural disaster begins with intents of your heart. If you are prepared for a natural disaster you will be prepared for Armageddon as well.

Answer 7

God has a plan for everyone weather we like it or not , it is not up to us . Sometimes we just choose the opposite road that God wants us to take, but I think in the end we still end up where he wants us. I hope this helps you out.

Answer 8

God has a plan and purpose and all things work for the good for those who trust in Him.

Answer 9

Yes, God does have a special plan for us. God is all knowing. Therefore, he knows when you're going to sin, or when someone dies. He planned this universe. We can't know why He does it, but you have to have faith that he loves you and you need to ask Him what His plan for you is.
