  • Have you ever quoted Jeremiah 29:11 which says, "For I know the plans I have for you. Plans to prosper you and not to harm you. Plans to give you a hope and a future?" Well, I've got news for you. Many people love to quote this verse but don't really understand what that verse actually means within its original context. In this video I'm going to take a detailed look at this verse so that when we quote, "For I know the plans I have for you" we will understand exactly what it means and how it may apply to our life.

      He just restated what God has already told us in His word the Bible. God should not be mocked. We all will reap what we sow. If we sow with view to our fleshly desires we will reap corruption from our fleshly desires. (GALATIANS 6:6-7) God will not shield us from the consequences that result from our poor decision making or wicked conduct. We will likely suffer the consequences. But, like Manasseh, we still can make changes in our conduct to soften the face of YHWH and he will forgive and restore us if possible. (2 CHRONICLES 33:10-13)

Ppl seem to forget Jeremiah 29:12-13: Then you will call upon me and come and pray to me, and I will listen to you. You will seek me and find me when you seek me with all your heart." Reminds me to focus on God not my current circumstances. I always need help with that. Remembering I may see it as struggle but God is pruning me through my circumstances.

    When times get tough and we're going through valleys, God doesn't ever forget where He puts us, and He doesn't do it to be cruel, whether it be discipline, to teach a lesson or whatever the case may be, through trials and tough times God enlarges us and our faith is put to the test and our faith grows. If everything was good all the time we wouldn't grow in our faith. He knows, and He's working everything out for the good of those who love Him. That good being transforming us to be more like His son Jesus Christ. His ways are higher, His plans are higher, and His thoughts are higher. So if youre going through a tough time, don't worry, dont lose faith, stand firm in your faith, keep running the race of faith and don't stop praying, God hasn't forgotten about you, He will never leave or forsake you.

      Thank you for your input but are you saying that God has not choosen Christians? If you are then you did not read the NEW TESTAMENT. We are also chosen by God. He did tell the Israelites that if they do not obey then he will choose a people that are not his own Roman's 9:22-25.There are many more scriptures. Furthermore the Israelites were to live as examples for us to see God's glory. That was an epic fail. But I thank them because now "Grace", God's Grace and mercy is extended to us gentiles.

      Either you don't know or you seem to have forgotten that through Jesus God grafted the gentiles into the nation of Israel [Romans 11]. So that scripture does indeed belong to Christians if you account for it being for the future.
      Also it matters not at all about whether that message was for the people of Israel or Christians because that doesn't change the facts that God knows the plans he has for us, and that his plans are to prosper us and give us hope for the future, it is us who cause his plans for us not to come to fruition.

I tell people all the the time that plans don't go according to ours but his. And looking back, the things that hurt so bad no longer feels that way. But I learned a lot from those experiences. So grateful 😊💛

    Overall a good message. I want to comment on this, though: "You can't believe yourself out of something you behaved yourself into......." Nice, preacher's statement, but I think it's not a very accurate one, because it's underestimating the grace and mercy of God and misrepresenting the role of faith. Indeed, we cannot believe ourselves out of a paper bag, let alone God's action in our lives. However, even if we bring trouble or negative consequences upon ourselves, God (as our loving heavenly father) will rescue us when we call out to Him. Our faith may be weak, and our sins and their consequences great and serious, but His grace and love will overcome them all!

      Yes, that works when it comes to the spirit man. However, not necessarily for the human side of us. We don't always get we what we pray for. Its not name & claim it. Sometimes we get rescued & quickly delivered. Most of the time we have to walk the process out. We, as western culture Christians really have no idea the hardship it truly can be. Christianity is not for the faint of heart.

      @@wlknonsonshine Good. I live in Asia and I see people who have very little in the line of material wealth. Believers are not exempt from poverty or suffering, but have a hope of God helping, supporting and supplying their needs. Believers have hope of divine healing, but even if they die, they know they have an awesome, perfect, pain-free home in heaven awaiting them. The prosperity gospel gives people hope- that's good and I think we should have hope and strong faith. But when we limit our hope to this life or the confines of the expectations we set or project, we'll probably be disappointed. I don't think that's good for faith.

      That is not in the Bible, however. You can be " extricated" from your own messes, depending on what God decides to do. Not sure what he means by " believe your way out " but I don't always see a correlation between the degree to which a person started the " mess" and the rapidity ( or slowness ) of God's answer. It's not as " black and white " as Allan implies. My opinion!

Then I heard a teaching about Jeremiah being written for the nation of Israel and I felt so much freedom. I had been angry at God for not living up to his promise for me in Jeremiah 29:11. When I was taught that I had wrongly applied God's word my understanding fell into place. I was able to repent, receive forgiveness, and move forward. I know many well-meaning believers who do the same thing that I did and I am so glad that you have made the meaning of this verse very clear so people can rightly divide the word of truth. Thanks.

    Have a Wonderful and Blessed day!!! If you have never called upon Jesus please call upon him today for salvation. He is the only way to heaven, not denomination, not how much we have or don't have. It is not by good works (Although it is important to be loving, and charitable). It is not skin color. It is not who we know here on earth. When we read the following verses it describes the days we are in. Time is going very quickly. The enemy is using so many distractions to keep people from Jesus and to keep believers focusing so much on the hate, fear, destruction, we see daily. As we have seen since the beginning of 2020 we know not what a day will bring. We need to put our trust in Jesus and be in prayer daily for all people. We need to remember too the Lord sees one race the human race, the saved, and the lost, on Jew or Gentile. To hate anyone because of the color of their skin is telling the mighty God, the creator he messed up. Please call upon Jesus today.
    2Timothy 4:3 For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but after their own lusts shall they heap to themselves teachers, having itching ears;
    2Timothy 4:4 And they shall turn away their ears from the truth, and shall be turned unto fables.
    Matthew 24:37 But as the days of Noe were, so shall also the coming of the Son of man be.
    Matthew 24:38 For as in the days that were before the flood they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until the day that Noe entered into the ark,
    Matthew 24:39 And knew not until the flood came, and took them all away; so shall also the coming of the Son of man be.
    John 3:15 That whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have eternal life.
    John 3:16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.
    John 3:17 For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved.
    John 3:18 He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God.

      @Justin Durham I'm seeing this comment of yours everywhere on this video. Are you a troll?

    Really good ! Thanks a lot for this “context-context-context”-Bible study!! 👍🏻👍🏻.
    More and more I apply the context to a Bible verse. And the Bible gets so much more meaning by doing so.
    Also, while doing this it becomes much easier to spot false prophets and false teachers.

    I just say..."Lord I give this burden to you".....because only our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ knows what plans God has for us. I never take it for granted that when I pray, my problems will be taken care of right now. I believe that God is trying to teach me something or there's a reason why he doesn't answer a prayer right away or sometimes he doesn't answer at all. I learned that unanswered prayers always benefit me and my family in the long run.
