DEVOTION: "For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, saith the LORD, thoughts of peace, and not of evil, to give you an expected end."(Jeremiah 29:11)

"What God Thinks". Have you ever wondered what God thinks about you? As always, the Bible has the answer, God is thinking about you and your future! He has plans for you that will bring about peace and blessing in your life. The key to tapping into this amazing plan is found in the written word of God. Most people are in bondage to some religious thought process that holds them captive in a prison they call church. Unfortunately, some people like their cage because they are comfortable with the familiarity of the bondage. The Bible doesn't say anything good about staying in bondage to anything. The Bible does have a lot to say about being free and walking by Faith.        "For we walk by faith, not by sight:"(2 Corinthians 5:7)  Anything that controls your life other than God is a bondage, regardless of what it is.  God wants you to be free to follow Him into the future that He has for you.   "And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free."(John 8:32)  If you find it difficult to serve God according to the things you've been taught, there is one of two things wrong. You are either living in the flesh or you have been taught a twisted view of God's Word. If you are not right with God, the truth is going to sting some before it sets you free, but once you are free, freedom is priceless!! If you have been taught a twisted view of God's Word all of your life, the peace of freedom may feel strange to you at first but once you understand that God has plans for you, you'll regret everyday you spent in bondage to your flesh or false teachings. Please walk away from your flesh, false teachings, your fears, religious drama or whatever is holding you back and get a revelation of your future from God's point of view. If you are God's child, He has a purpose for you that you need to see for yourself. If you stay in bondage and never see the vision, you'll die where you sit, but worse than that, your children will think that spiritual deadness is the norm.  When spiritual death travels down through several generations with the allusion of what true spirituality is supposed to be, your great-grandchildren will continue drifting away from the truth. Once they hear truth with a vision, it scares them, because it's the raw power of God. The bottom line is, God has an expected end for us and we need to "KNOW" what that is right now!! Believe and Become everything God wants you to be!!!
