 I have a plan for you, and that plan is for welfare. And that's not welfare like we think in terms of, but it means, the word simply means for happiness, for prosperity, for the good in your life, for your well-being and your success. The opposite of that is if you don't want to know God's will and walk in it is, he says, and not calamity. That is trouble, affliction, disaster, and ruin.
