 What’s the Plan (Jeremiah 29:11)

Many people quote the scripture I know the plan that I have for you says of the lord. I know the thoughts that I think concerning you say the lord, thoughts of good and not of evil to bless you and prosper and to bring you to an expected end, but what’s the plan. Jeremiah said this to the children of Israel when they were being carried off to captivity and Babylon and they were going to be there 70 years but God still had a plan, their idolatry and disobedience did not cancel the plan of God and no decision that we have made in our lives or ever will make in our lives will cancel God’s plan. We can’t cancel Christmas, God’s   plan is going to happen, the abortion and the miscarriage has not canceled God’s plan, the divorce and the separation has not canceled God’s plan. Yes the loss of a job, the loss of a house none of those things can cancel God’s plan. We don’t  always dotted every i, crossed every t, highlighted everything that needs to be highlighted, underlined and italicized everything that need to be done yet God still has a plan. What’s the plan?

The plan is repentance. Repentance is   a change of mind or a change of heart that result in a change of action. The plan is for us to repent, for us to change, for us to do a 180, for us to learn the lesson from the consequences of our actions, for us to get the blessings, to repent to change.

Once we repent there’s reconciliation. The bible says God was in Christ reconciling the world back unto himself. God is in our experiences bringing us  back. God never left us, we got out of place and so the plan is that after we repent, reconciliation  and right relationship will also bring us back. 

What’s the plan? Restoration that God is bringing us back to the promise.  God is  bringing us back to optimal health, harmonious relationships and overflowing wealth.

Universe Means One Thing: Love

  Universe Means One Thing: Love "For all the law is fulfilled in this one word, love: Love your neighbor as yourself."   Galatians 5:14 (KSB)    Sometimes, the word “universe” can feel mysterious even spooky to some. Others think it's irreverent or sacrilegious when used in spiritual conversations. But what if we redefined it? What if “universe” simply meant love? What if it meant God, since God is love?  When we say, “the universe,” we can think of it as pointing to one word love. Just one word. The entire Bible, composed of 66 books and written by over 40 different authors, ultimately speaks to one central theme: love. From beginning to end, this divine book points us toward loving God, loving ourselves, and loving others.  In the Old Testament, God's people had 636 laws civil, ceremonial, and moral. They guided everything from relationships to religious festivals. But then Jesus came and said, “Let me make this simple Love God. Love yourself. L...

Refocus Your Faith: How to Overcome Distraction, Disappointment, and Discouragement

  Refocus Your Faith: How to Overcome Distraction, Disappointment, and Discouragement "For in Christ Jesus neither circumcision nor uncircumcision has any value. The only thing that counts is faith expressing itself through love."   Galatians 5:6 (KSB)    With everything going on around us, it's easy to feel lost. Distractions come quickly, disappointments pile up, and discouragement sneaks in. We all face these moments. But even when we get off track, there is a way back and that path is through our faith, principles, and core values.  When you live your life anchored in principles, it gives you a compass for when the road gets unclear. Knowing your vision, your mission, and your core values makes it easier to realign when life feels out of control. But if you don’t know who you are, how can you get back to being your best self? If you don’t know what you stand on, what can you stand up on after a fall?    Clarity of purpose keeps you ...

Hidden Treasure: You Are a Vessel, Not Just an Instrument

I AM Not an Instrument. I AM a Vessel “But we have this treasure in earthen vessels, that the excellency of the power may be of God, and not of us.” – 2 Corinthians 4:7 (KSB) Hidden in Plain Sight The image that Paul presents in 2 Corinthians 4 is that of a treasure hidden within an earthen vessel. In the Old Testament, people didn’t have locks, alarm systems, or cameras to protect their valuables. Instead, their belongings were often left exposed, making them vulnerable to thieves and robbers. To safeguard their most valuable treasures, they would hide them in jars of clay—earthen vessels—placing them in plain sight. A thief or robber would never think to look there because it wasn’t an obvious hiding place. Likewise, God has placed something valuable inside of you—a treasure of great worth. Yet, people often fail to see it. You may be right in front of them, but they don’t recognize your gifts, skills, talents, anointing, abilities, or sensitivities. You are hidden in plain sight bec...
