What does the Bible say about our plans for the future?

Answered in 1 source

The Bible teaches that we should acknowledge God's sovereignty in our plans by saying, 'If the Lord wills.'

In James 4:13-17, the scripture highlights the arrogance of making plans for the future without considering God's will. It reminds us that our life is but a vapor, here for a moment and then gone. Therefore, we should earnestly recognize that the outcome of our future endeavors is ultimately in God's hands and express our intentions with, 'If the Lord wills.' This is crucial because it reflects our trust in God's providence and acknowledges the uncertainty of life.
