One of the reasons many of us don't get to see the results of our faith is because we always have things figured out on our own. We believe so much in setting goals, that God is not left out in our plans. We give him a timeline to act else we use our method. If He doesn't show up at the exact time, we need Him, then He can as well not bother showing up. King Saul has a story to tell when he couldn't wait for Samuel God's prophet and lost the throne for his lineage.
As much as we humans have plans, what do we think of God? He is such a master planner that He planned the life of Prophet Jeremiah before his birth. Can you imagine what plans He has for you? Have you given It a thought that there is a master plan for my life that I might not be aware of? It simply means if God has a plan for you before your existence, you will be wise to find out what plans He already has for you before you start running on yours and assume you are in line with Him.
Whenever a believer is yet to find out his purpose, the work of the devil is to intentionally not allow him/her to see it. He knows if you find out your purpose and follow it, it will negatively affect his kingdom because you will be working for God's. So, you must be aggressive and intentional about it too.
One of the lies the devil has always sold out to many is that since the Bible says His thoughts towards me are thoughts of peace, not evil and an expected end, then it will always "appear good". As much as His plans are good, it doesn't always appear so to us. It could be to start a project when you don't have it all going well for you financially at that time. When you obey, you will surely what it means to walk by faith and not by sight. Even when He leads you to do something bigger, you'll remember His faithfulness and be ready to walk with Him.
That goodness you now enjoy because you chose to trust His leading won't be there for you if you did otherwise. Always know it's not so much as to how big the vision is, but in the person, who sent you. If God has called you, sent you, led you, inspired you to take a step to start something, follow Him with all your heart and He will always come through for you.
