When I commit my plans to God, He moves mountains.

When you surrender your plans to God, He orchestrates the details beyond your control. Trust Him to open doors and make the impossible possible.

"Commit your way to the Lord; trust in Him, and He will act." – Psalm 37:5 (NIV)
🌍 The Weight of the Vision
Ever felt like everything is riding on you?
Maybe you’re staring at your laptop at 2 AM—bleary-eyed after reworking a presentation for the third time, haunted by the thought: What if this fails? The numbers don’t add up. The leads aren’t converting. The clients and investors aren’t responding. And somewhere between trying to scale your dream and answer WhatsApp messages, your soul begins to crack under the weight of it all.
Especially in fast-moving industries, burnout isn’t just physical—it’s spiritual. You pray, but the answers feel delayed. You plan, but the outcomes don’t align. You hustle, but the peace never arrives. You wonder if maybe, just maybe, you’ve been carrying plans that were never yours to bear alone.
✝️ The God Who Acts
Psalm 37 was written by David, a man who knew the tension of holding God-sized dreams while facing real-world delays. Surrounded by injustice and enemies who seemed to prosper, David reminds himself—and us—of this unshakable truth: "Commit your way to the Lord; trust in Him, and He will act."
The Hebrew word for "commit" in this passage means "to roll away" or "to entrust fully." It’s not just about submitting a prayer; it’s about rolling the entire weight of your business, your decisions, your worries—onto God. Not as a backup plan. As the plan.
I remember a season when I was launching a new saas product. I had the strategy, the team, and the capital—but not the peace. Every decision felt like a gamble. So I paused. I prayed. And I told God, “I’m rolling this on You. I’m tired of performing; I want to partner.” That week, with no extra ad spend, the engagement rate on our launch doubled. The growth wasn’t flashy, but it was undeniably divine.
That’s what God does. He moves when we stop striving and start trusting. His ways often don’t look like ours, but they work in ways we can’t orchestrate.
In a culture that rewards constant action, God calls us to committed trust. While the world says, “You have to make it happen,” God says, “Entrust it to Me, and I will act.”

đź’¬ A Heart-to-Heart for the Journey
I you’re reading this while balancing business operations, kids' bedtime, vendors delays, or a quiet season that feels like failure—breathe.
God sees you.
He doesn’t just see the business you’re building; He sees the weight behind your smile. The “I’m fine” you keep telling your team. The long nights, the missed meals, the whispered prayers.
You are not behind. You are not forgotten. You are not alone.
You were never meant to climb this mountain in your own strength. And the beautiful truth? When you commit your plans to God—not halfway, but fully—He doesn’t just walk with you. He moves mountains for you.
Doors open. Hearts soften. Clients call. Investors respond. Sometimes in big ways, sometimes quietly. But always, always, He acts.
So today, choose release. Let God carry what you cannot. The God who parts seas and calms storms is still in the business of acting on behalf of those who trust Him.
🙏 Prayer
Father,
I’m tired of carrying the weight of outcomes I can’t control. I’ve planned, worked, and pushed—and still I feel empty. Today, I roll my plans, dreams, deadlines, and worries onto You. Teach me to trust that You’re working, even when I can’t see it. Give me peace in the waiting, and courage in the letting go. Remind me that when I commit my way to You, You promise to act. I trust You with my journey. Move the mountains I cannot. In Jesus' name, Amen.
