"About to Launch"
So today I read Jeremiah 29:11-14:
Then He reminded me of a dream I had a few weeks ago. In this dream, I was in prison but I knew it was not a real prison. However, I remember very clearly, I was there and my clothes were tattered and torn. They were dirty and my hair was uncombed. Then Suddenly, it was almost like a lightning flash, I was set free and had on new garments and was well put together. I remember asking myself what it meant. I did not think anything of the dream until now. Now I knew that that dream had something to do with Jeremiah 29.
So I went and read the whole chapter. Then I realized that this chapter was speaking to the children of Isreal just before they were going to be captured by the Babylonians. They had disobeyed God and walked away from what they knew to be right. They had displeased God with their constant idol worship. He had warned them thought eh prophet Jeremiah but they would not take heed. So he allowed the Babylonians to come in and capture them.
However, as he is telling them what will occur, he also tells them how long they will be punished. He then reminds them that he made a promise to them and he will uphold his promise. So even though they are being punished for disobedience, that did not deter his promise. He did not change his mind.
Now thinking about my dream. Right now I am in a prison. Many things are going wrong in my life and my situation seems glib. However, just like God told the Israelites that they would come out of the situation and receive the promise, and be returned to their promised land, he was telling me... he has not forgotten his promise to me and everything that God said I would accomplish in this life will be accomplished. This is not my end. God has an expected end for me and that is what is about to launch.
The path that leads to his plans for me and the expected end he has for me. I know that if I seek his face and stay in right standing with him... I shall see my promised land in this life.
You are Bound No More.

So today I read Jeremiah 29:11-14:
For I know the plans I have for you," declares the LORD, "plans to prosperyou and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future. I will be found by you," declares the LORD, "and will bring you back from captivity. I will gather you from all the nations and places where I have banished you," declares the LORD, "and will bring you back to the place from which I carried you into exile." 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.After reading this, I heard the words about to launch! At first, I was like God what are You saying about this? I don't see how this scripture goes with what You are saying to me.
Then He reminded me of a dream I had a few weeks ago. In this dream, I was in prison but I knew it was not a real prison.
