The bible tells us that daniel understood by the books of jeremiah , the prophet ,the timing of israel's deliverance . He discovered that the set time to favour israel had come , but he also knew he had a role to play in bringing God's desire to reality. Thus he began to pray. He said Then I set my face toward the Lord God to make request by prayer and supplications, with fasting, sackcloth, and ashes. And I prayed to the Lord my God, and made confession, and said, “O Lord, great and awesome God, who keeps His covenant and mercy with those who love Him, and with those who keep His commandments,"(Daniel 9:3-4)
This shows that just because God had planned something doesn't mean it will come to pass, you have to know and play your part. There are people who say, "if God has planned it , it will happen. If it is the will of God it will come to pass" such people are ignorant of God's word and his ways of doing things. Always, there's a God ward part and there's a man ward part. The bible says he's given the earth to the children of men to run (psalm 115:16).
What God does is yo show you his plan , to show you his will. As you study the word , you learn about his will and find out about his principle and how the kingdom functions. Then you make his will come to pass by applying those principles , and walking in his word. You must know the word of God for yourself ,and put it to work for yourself. You must be a doer of the word ; that is where your blessing is ( james 1:25).
Joshua 1:8 and psalm 1:1-3 further explain the life of undeniable success, persistent and consistent fruitfulness and productivity of the one who's sold out to the word; the one who meditates on the word day and night , walking in the light of it, prospers.. Glory to God
