EVERYTHING is part of God's plan?

To the OP...this is actually very comforting. If everything was not under God control and in his plans, nothing could be because if something was not in his plans that means he couldn't control it which means it could wreck everything else he had planned...which means He couldn't make prophecies, which is clearly not true because he DOES give prophecies...ones that come true!

Proverbs ;6; 1-19;This is about idleness, lazy people that won't work

Ty Gabriel I don't know if the analogy that was placed on my heart has to do with this scripture here but it is interesting to learn that the ant is spoken of in the bible

And Proverbs 30:25 mentions ants too.

It just reminded me of how we can learn from ants which I remembered being in Proverbs.

Yes, for his lovely Children KJVJeremiah29:11 For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, saith the Lord,thoughts of peace, and not of evil,to give you an expected end.

I must be different. I think it is very dangerous to blame God.

There are billions of people in the world that blame Him for their circumstances.

2Ti 3:1 This know also, that in the last days perilous times shall come.
2Ti 3:2 For men shall be lovers of their own selves, covetous, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy.

That is one of the charcteristics of many people in the last days,is that they are blasphemers.

Blasphemy is attributing something to God that is evil,when He is good.

God rains on the just and the unjust,and even the wicked prosper in this world with billions of dollars,and serious offences of a sexual nature,and cheating,lying,and stealing,but yet there is no punishment on many of them,and they flourish,and prosper,satifying their soul to the full,with lavish living,and material goods aplenty,,and eating the finest of foods,travelling abroad,here and there,and do not even care about God,but they have no problems in their life,and life is grand for them,and neglect the poor and needy,which God said this generation will devour the poor from off the earth,and the needy from among men,and people want to say,God is punishing me,does not care about me,is responsible for my circumstances.

It is not based in reality,for if severely greedy people that neglect the poor and needy have no punishment,then why would God be punishing people of a lesser degree,and the love of money is the root of all evil,for it neglects the poor and needy,the way that God wants the world to run,which is in love.

But the problems of this world is only temporary,and does not hinder a person from crying out to God,which is what really matters.

It is not contradictory to say God is SOVEREIGN over all things, but at the same time God does not directly CAUSE all things.

God, being all powerful and all knowing, knows of all things, and has power to change all things.
And yet, in his sovereign will, he allows many bad things to happen in the world... for reasons we, the created being, need not understand.

* Has God ever allowed something bad to happen to you, and you didn't understand why God would allow it, and then later it effected some good purpose?
* Of course.
* Why is it hard to believe God has more purposes that you don't understand?
* Why is it hard to believe God has filled the entire world full of purposes you don't understand?

The steps of His people are ordered by the Lord KJVPsalm36:23-25 23.The steps of good man are ordered by the Lord: and he delighteth in his way. 24.Though he fall, he shall not be utterly cast down: for the Lord upholdeth him with his hand. 25.I have been young, and now am old;yet have I not seen the righteous forsaken, nor his seeds begging bread.

No, but God wants us to be secure in him because we are the body of Christ, we need to trust more in faith, and live and abide in Him, and not so much in our circumstances.. Even before,during, and after those dark times God's glory will shine through in the end... its not the circumstance.. its you and your faith / trust and living out believing in what He says... some people crumble under the face of adversity instead of trusting in God fully and completely surrendered, and they will rarely or never see any fruit because they are so engaged with what the enemy is doing, that they missed the point...God will use both negative and positive situations for his own glory, it doesn't have to be part of the plan...And as a child of God you can always pray and ask for what you need.

I'm not sure; this is a question I always come back to and never fully settle. I believe everything happens because God allows it to. But it's clear that we have free will. And it's clear that God doesn't approve of sin. So, if everything happens because God planned it that way, then does that mean He planned for sin to happen? But God doesn't sin; He doesn't tempt us.

The closest I've come to an answer is that God has an overall plan. Maybe not every single moment of every single day (like maybe He didn't plan that someone would choose a salad instead of a corn dog), but big events. God knows what's going to happen and what people are going to do, and He allows people to make their own choices. Sometimes He works around the bad stuff or uses it for good even if He didn't plan it to happen, or maybe He did plan for it because in a broken world He sometimes works in a way that is less than perfect. Our choices and those of others may delay the end goal, but we can't derail God's plan. For example, how many times do Christians realize that if they had only stopped struggling against what God was doing in their lives they'd have grown a lot faster? They still grow, but because they fight God it takes longer. It's God's plan for them to grow, but if they fight Him it might take longer.

I'm not sure this answer is correct, but so far that's the best I've got.

Yeah I noticed that, its kinda disturbing how He does that,I'm leaning towards maybe they aren't prophetic,it's just that they haven't happened to us yet,like we are in a different time line.
