Thank you for joining us today on our daily Christian prayer podcast with myself, Reverend Van Cooper, recorded live here in London, England, where faith meets the world in daily prayer and global hope. Jeremiah 29, we're in. We're in the door. Jeremiah 29, verse 11. I'm gonna read
it quickly. You know, for I know the plans I have for you, declares the Lord. Plans to prosper you, plans not to harm you, plans to give you a hope in a future.
I've got to tell you, there's a plan that is prospering your life. It might look like it's about to go bankrupt. It might look like I'm not gonna get off this hospital bed, it might look like these bullies are gonna wipe me out, it might look like that I'm gonna get consumed by the actions of my life. But I want to tell you, the God that I know is working outside of your life. He's not only working on the outside of your life, preparing and making a way where there is no way. He's gonna open up the river Jordan, He's gonna get you to walk around that fortified city, Jericho. You're gonna look at life right now and you're gonna look at these great big obstacles, and you're gonna say, Ben, there's no way. But I want to tell you, as God told the Israelites, to tell Joshua, keep walking around Jericho. Because there's a plan for Jericho, there's a plan for Goliath, there's a plan for cancer, sickness, disease, heart disease, motor neuron disease, fear, doubt. There's a plan. And this sickness will not underto death. Where does that sound? Does it
sound familiar? This sickness will not end unto death. Lazarus. Roll the stone. I'm telling you now, God is rolling the stone. The sisters in your life, the brothers in your life, GDPR, the system of the world, the criteria, the policies, said there's no way, don't roll
the stone. There's no way out. But I want to tell you that I serve a God, you serve a God that raises the dead. I want to tell you now, as we're in prayer right now, the God that we serve, put the stars in the heavens, and Father, we pray. As we are just in a conversation with you now, Jesus. Lord, we're not in church, we're in a van. Lord, we're not in church, we're in the field. Lord, we're not in church, we're crying, laying on the floor of the carpet at a house. Lord, we're not in church, we're at work. Lord, we're not in church, we're at school or at university. Father, we're not in church. And I thank God we're not in church, because we're in the kingdom. If you're on your carpet praying, give him a shout. If you're at the end of your tether, give him a shout. If you're at the end of the tarmac, give him a shout. Because there's a plan. And God has to take us to the end of the tarmac. He has to bring us to the end of thyself
for complete surrender. So Lord, from Singapore to Vancouver, from Vancouver to Cape Town, Australia, Nigeria, North and South Nigeria. Lord, all the way through London, Delhi, Nigeria, Father, in the name of Jesus Christ, all the way through Israel. Lord, we thank you, Father, for every area of life, right the way through Iran, right the way through Afghanistan, right the way through Dubai. Lord, every area, New York, Lord, America, Father, every nation, every tribe, every tongue is going to recognize that there's a plan over your life. And we cannot escape. Jeremiah 29, 11. Father, we thank you as we pray for this world right now. Lord, wherever we are in the name of Jesus, from the battlefield to the train, from the train to the bus stop, from the bus stop to the desk, from the desk to the kitchen sink, from the kitchen sink to being under the bonnet of the car, from under the bonnet of the car to flying the aircraft. Dear God, from the aircraft to the beach, from the beach to the gym, from the gym, dear God, to work. Wherever we are, Spirit of the Living God.
We want to thank you, Lord, that we ain't got to be in church. We got to be in Jesus. I thank you, Lord, that you never told us to get in religion. You told us to follow you. You didn't tell the boys, dear God, at the Sea of Galilee, drop your nets, come and follow religion. You said, drop your nets, come and follow me. Oh, let's tell the world that we're Jesus followers. We don't need the church, we need the kingdom. Oh my God, we need faith. We don't need criteria. Oh my God, in the name of Jesus.
Lord, wherever you are, I pray, sister and brother, that the fire is over your life. I thank you that you are embracing God's plan. God's plan is embracing you. The spirit of the God that you serve is with you. There is courage to keep walking. There is a new season breaking out in your life. There is strength that you never thought possible. God is healing your back. God is healing your legs. God is taking you out of the sickness of the disease. There is a journey for you. It's not over yet. Don't you tell yourself it's over. Don't you allow that stone in front of the tomb of life to stay there. You speak from the inside of the grave. You speak from the inside of Lazarus. You speak to that stone. Get out. Roll back in the name of Jesus. I'm coming out. I'm taking these grove clothes off. I'm getting back to work. I'm getting back to life. I'm getting back to living. This this this life isn't taking me out in the name of Jesus. Nothing is going to stop me. I'm going to rise because I'm born again. I'm spirit-filled. I'm blessed and highly favored. My God is restoring my dreams. My God is restoring everything in my life. My God is bringing me to victory. There is purpose in the days ahead. There is victory right now. I'm standing on the word of God and I believe in victory because there is power in the name
of Jesus. And Lord, I want to make this a life application right now. I believe that the fire is over my life. I thank you that there is security in Christ. There is promises that lead me. There is peace that sustains us in Jesus' name. I've got to tell you right now, as we back out of this, there is a plan for you. There is a hope for you. And his name is Jesus. Don't you ever give up. Don't you ever give up. The fire is with you. Jeremiah 29, verse 11. For I know the plans I have for you, declares the Lord. Plans to prosper you and not to harm you. Plans to give you a hope and a future. Hold on to that today. Until tomorrow. God bless.
