God's Purpose- God's Plan - Jeremiah 29:4-14
QUESTIONS TO REFLECT ON DURING THE WEEK -
Describe something that didn’t go as planned in your life.
Read Jeremiah 29:4-9. This was written to God’s people when they were living in exile, separated from their homeland. They longed to go back. Several false prophets had said they would go back soon. The temptation would have been to look towards the future to find their plan. In contrast, what does Jeremiah tell them to do? What surprises you about this?
Rather than looking towards what’s next for you, what is God’s purpose for you where you are in life right now?
Read Jeremiah 29:10-14. God speaks that the future is planned out for your good. We see this in Jesus as He has been raised to life for you. How does trusting that God has the future worked out allow you to let His blessings flow through you where you are now?
How has this text helped you understand God’s plan for your life?
