Jeremiah 29:11 "THE LORD PLANS TO PROSPER YOU"

Jeremiah 29:11 THE LORD PLANS TO PROSPER YOU


A man drove into Lagos and hired a taxi to take him to business district area of the state. As he was riding along they came to a red light and the driver went right on through the red light.



The man said, "Hey, the light was red. You're supposed to stop." The driver said, "Yeah, I know, but my brother does it all the time."



Soon they came to a second red light and again he went right straight through. The passenger said, "You're going to get us killed. That light was red. Why didn't you stop?"



The driver said, "Don't worry about it. My brother does it all the time."



Then they came to a green light and he stopped. The man said, "The light is green. Now is the time to go. Why don't you go on through?"



The driver answered, "I know it's green. But you never know when my brother may be coming through."



Sometimes it seems as if the world is going through on red and stopping on green. We're constantly trying things that don't work.



The good news is the Gospel works.



Even if things are not going your way, Jeremiah 29:11 says...

"For I know the plans I have for you," declares the LORD, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future."



Keep your eyes on God by constantly reading, confessing God’s word, and meditating scriptures.



The fact is, as long we're in this sinful earth, we will continuously experience problems and difficulties in life.



But God uses these problems to break us and mold us so we can all be like Him.



Reading and memorizing God's Word is a powerful way to remind ourselves that God is on our side no matter what happens.



I encourage you to begin your journey to a healthier Christian life through Bible reading.



Expect divine encounter and rescue in Jesus name.
