Proverbs 16:1

There are many devices in a man’s heart; nevertheless the counsel of the LORD, that shall stand.

A man’s heart deviseth his way: but the LORD directeth his steps.

For it is God which worketh in you both to will and to do of his good pleasure.

Man’s goings are of the LORD; how can a man then understand his own way?

O LORD, I know that the way of man is not in himself: it is not in man that walketh to direct his steps.

The king’s heart is in the hand of the LORD, as the rivers of water: he turneth it whithersoever he will.

And thou shalt speak unto him, and put words in his mouth: and I will be with thy mouth, and with his mouth, and will teach you what ye shall do.

Blessed be the LORD God of our fathers, which hath put such a thing as this in the king’s heart, to beautify the house of the LORD which is in Jerusalem:

Incline my heart unto thy testimonies, and not to covetousness.

And it came to pass, when the captains of the chariots saw Jehoshaphat, that they said, It is the king of Israel. Therefore they compassed about him to fight: but Jehoshaphat cried out, and the LORD helped him; and God moved them to depart from him.

LORD, thou hast heard the desire of the humble: thou wilt prepare their heart, thou wilt cause thine ear to hear:

O LORD, I beseech thee, let now thine ear be attentive to the prayer of thy servant, and to the prayer of thy servants, who desire to fear thy name: and prosper, I pray thee, thy servant this day, and grant him mercy in the sight of this man. For I was the king’s cupbearer.

But thanks be to God, which put the same earnest care into the heart of Titus for you.
