‘‘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. Then you will call on 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.’’
Jeremiah 29:11-13 (NIV2011)
1. GOD’S PLAN TRANSCENDS MY PROBLEMS
‘‘For I know the plans I have for you…’’

2. GOD’S PLAN SUPPLIES MY NEEDS
‘‘…plans to prosper you.’’
‘‘And it is He who will supply all your needs from His riches in glory because of what Christ Jesus has done for us.’’ Philippians 4:19 (TLB)

‘‘...not to harm you…’’
‘‘What, then, shall we say in response to these things? If God is for us, who can be against us?’’ Romans 8:31 (NIV)

‘‘…plans to give you hope and a future.’’
