“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.”
— Jeremiah 29:11 (NIV)
Reflection on Today’s Verse
Jeremiah 29:11 is a powerful declaration of God’s intention and love for His people. This verse was originally spoken to the Israelites during their exile, assuring them that their current hardships were not the end of their story. God had a plan for their restoration and hope.
In our lives today, this verse reminds us that God’s plans are always for our good, even when we face challenges or uncertainty. His plans are not to harm us but to bring us prosperity and a hopeful future. Trusting in His promise allows us to face each day with confidence, knowing that God is guiding us toward a purpose filled with hope.
Personal Prayer

Thank You for the assurance that You have plans for my life—plans that are good and filled with hope. Help me to trust in Your guidance, even when the path is unclear. Thank You for the hope and future You have prepared for me. Lead me each day according to Your perfect will. Amen.
