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.”

In this passage, the prophet Jeremiah was addressing God’s people who were in exile and facing extreme hardship. While it wasn’t a guarantee of immediate relief & deliverance, it was a vivid reminder that God was still in control…His plans were to bless, His promises were faithful, His desires were to prosper both practically & economically, and His goal was to give all a hopeful future. So, in the midst of the world’s wickedness today, you too may feel like a refugee, so this verse urges you to not give up… but to continually seek His guidance by aligning your heart with God’s divine Will… all the while trusting in His unfailing promises.
