Day 18- Peace About My Future 

• God’s Word

For I know the plans I have for you,” says the LORD. “They are plans for good and not for disaster, to give you a future and a hope.  Jeremiah 29:11 NLT 

• Today’s Thought

Our perspective is everything when it comes to having peace in our lives about our future. When you have a clear view and eternal perspective of what’s ahead, your current circumstances don’t seem as overwhelming. Have you ever noticed the person driving a car never gets carsick? That’s because the person driving can see the curves, hills, and potholes ahead and make the necessary mental adjustment in advance of what his body (and the car) will later experience. The same is true when it comes to our peace.

It is so interesting to know and learn that the prophet Jeremiah was actually in a hard season of his life when he wrote this promise from God (Jeremiah 29:11) to the people of Israel as they were in bondage in Babylon. Their hearts were to be back home in Jerusalem, but they found themselves in a place that could have caused them to give up and give in to fear and anxiety about the future.  

God was reminding them through the prophet Jeremiah, and He is reminding us today that He is in complete control. Even though we cannot see what is around the next curve, we can trust that God is in control. He is reminding us that He has plans for good and not disaster. Our destination is a future filled with hope, and the arrival is guaranteed so we can move forward with a perspective of confident peace.   

As we continue to pray this prayer of blessing over friends, our family, and our future let’s pray with confident peace knowing we can trust our powerful God.  

• My Prayer 

May the LORD bless you and protect you. May the LORD smile on you and be gracious to you. May the LORD show you his favor and give you his peace. Numbers 6:24-26 (NLT) 

Today I declare I trust you, my almighty God, the maker of heaven and earth! I place my family, friends, and future in your hands, knowing that you are good and only good comes from your hands. Today, I choose to walk in peace and confidence. I pray for this same peace and confidence over my family and friends. Thank you for your peace. In Jesus' name, Amen.
