There are dozens of touching Bible verses about God’s incredible plans for us – for the world. We are all a part of that plan – the plan for a greater future, and one that our Lord has designed for us.
We must enact God’s plan and spread His Gospel to the corners of the world by being missionaries and giving to the church.
The Lord’s people must pray for those who have not been reached by His word, and work endlessly to illuminate the paths of those who continue to live in darkness.
Leaders must be appointed who can spread the words to far communities and peoples, and we must share what resources we have for the good of the church.
God’s plan surrounds us, and it has been written, but we cannot sit idly by. We must get up and work to fulfil all he intends. We must provoke the Church to fulfil the mission that God has set us, and we have wasted enough time.
The Role Of The Church In God’s Plan
The Church will play a key role in God’s plan, as it has for hundreds of years. The Holy Book makes it clear that God’s people are to declare His glory to the world, and spread the Good Word.
When you hear the Holy Words, faith will be placed in Jesus Christ, and your soul is saved.
If the Gospel is not spread to the corners of the earth, its people will remain in sin. Trapped and in a dark place. We must heed the call of the church, and be the light to illuminate the spiritual freedom of the world, and do as God commands.
Romans 10:14-15
How then will they call on Him in whom they have not believed? And how are they to believe in Him of whom they have never heard? And how are they to hear without someone preaching?

And he is before all things, and in Him all things hold together. And he is the head of the body, the church. He is the beginning, the firstborn from the dead, that in everything he might be preeminent.
For in Him all the fullness of God was pleased to dwell, and through Him to reconcile to himself all things, whether on earth or in heaven, making peace by the blood of His cross.
And you, who once were alienated and hostile in mind, doing evil deeds, he has now reconciled in His body of flesh by His death, in order to present you holy and blameless and above reproach before him, if indeed you continue in the faith, stable and steadfast, not shifting from the hope of the gospel that you heard, which has been proclaimed in all creation under heaven, and of which I, Paul, became a minister.

Final Thoughts
It can be easy to forget that there is a mighty plan that God has set out. The world is burning, and pain and suffering surrounds us, but we cannot let ourselves forget.
He is the Lord our God, and He has plans to prosper us, to give us our best, and to see us succeed.
We must put behind us the darkness of the world, and keep our eyes on the Light – His light. God has given us a task and a goal, and it is to see His plan enacted.
Remember your mission, and remember the Lord your God’s words, as we have echoed. Spend time with him, and have complete faith that His plan will come to be.
Work hard to see it be so. We have spent too much time already waiting, and the time has come to provoke the church into fulfilling the One True Plan. Be a part of it, and work alongside the church.
Spread the Gospel, give your resources to the church, and help to accomplish the one thing that truly matters: God’s Will.
