Preparing for today's lesson:

EMBRACING CHANGE By Looking Ahead with HOPE: God's Resolution
READ: Jeremiah 29:4-14

Biblical Prayer Focus:

2 Kings 19:15-19 And Hezekiah prayed before the LORD and said: “O LORD, the God of Israel, enthroned above the cherubim, you are the God, you alone, of all the kingdoms of the earth; you have made heaven and earth. Incline your ear, O LORD, and hear; open your eyes, O LORD, and see; and hear the words of Sennacherib, which he has sent to mock the living God. Truly, O LORD, the kings of Assyria have laid waste the nations and their lands and have cast their gods into the fire, for they were not gods, but the work of men's hands, wood and stone. Therefore they were destroyed. So now, O LORD our God, save us, please, from his hand, that all the kingdoms of the earth may know that you, O LORD, are God alone.”

Remember that we are in a spiritual battle. Lay any "threats" before His throne.
