          In   Jeremiah   29 ,   verse   11 ,   for   I   know   the   plans   that   I   have   for   you ,   declares   the   Lord   Plans   to   prosper   you   and   not   to   harm   you .   Plans   to   give   you   hope   and   a   future   Spirit   of   the   living   God .   We   need   hope   and   we   need   a   future   Because ,   lord ,   when   we   look   across   certain   areas   of   culture   and   generations ,   lord ,   they   have   no   hope   and   they   have   no   future .   Lord ,   they   need   the   power   of   God   in   their   lives .   We   need   the   power   of   God   in   our   lives ,   need   the   power   of   God   in   their   lives .   We   need   the   power   of   God   in   our   lives ,   lord .   You   tell   us ,   for   I   know   the   plans   I   have   for   you ,   declares   the   Lord .

          Right   now ,   lord ,   we   need   a   blueprint ,   we   need   a   plan ,   lord ,   we   need   to   know   the   plan   because ,   lord ,   we   are   just   bouncing   along   this   world ,   lord ,   and   sorry ,   lord ,   that   we   have   followed   the   crowd .   I   pray ,   lord ,   that   we   will   not   follow   the   crowd ,   but   we   will   know   the   plans   that   God   has   for   us ,   that   we   will   find   ourselves   as   that   individual ,   that   identity   as   a   brother   and   sister   in   Christ ,   lord ,   that   we   will   find   our   true   identity   through   the   word   of   God .   So ,   lord ,   you   have   a   plan   for   us   as   an   individual ,   not   as   a   group ,   not   as   a   ministry ,   not   as   a   religious   order ,   not   as   a   charity .   Lord ,   you   have   a   plan   for   every   one   of   us

Don&#39;t   get   caught ,   don&#39;t   get   captured   by   the   crowd   of   social   media ,   don&#39;t   get   crowded   out   by   your   culture ,   don&#39;t   allow   certain   areas   of   society   to   control   you .
