Episode 42: God's Plan For A Nation (Jeremiah 29: 11)

On this episode of Faith, Craig, Deb and I take a look at Jeremiah 29:11 -"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", and an article that talks about how the phrase can easily be misinterpreted as God having a plan for you only. An article from Relevant Magazine (https://relevantmagazine.com/god/practical-faith/stop-taking-jeremiah-2911-out-context) talks about the phrase and I also took inspiration from a man fired from his job at Home Depot and used Jeremiah to comfort him (https://www.theroot.com/florida-man-who-accused-home-depot-of-firing-him-becaus-1827792933). Three things I took away from the verse: make sure your plans in life are on the foundation of God and not without - it may be the reason you are failing in your plans; take heed in who you have around you; are you listening to false prophets? and remember - God has a plan not just for you but for us - a community, a nation, as brothers and sisters of God.
