As I was studying God’s Word … I discovered a treasure … Often when hard times come in your or my life … when a person finds themselves in a tough spot… What does God plan for us? Decrease or Increase? Usually the answer you and I respond with is decrease. And maybe God does tell us we have lived to much above where we should be and therefore a decrease to get lean. However, I don’t believe that’s always God full intentions for you and I. God wants us to increase!
The scriptures say in Jeremiah 29:11-14, “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. In those days when you pray, I will listen. If you look for me wholeheartedly, you will find me. I will be found by you,” says the Lord. “I will end your captivity and restore your fortunes. I will gather you out of the nations where I sent you and will bring you home again to your own land.” (NLT)
