WEBVTT

00:00:10.022 --> 00:00:15.602
Welcome to the Diary of a Black Woman podcast, where we pray bold prayers,

00:00:16.082 --> 00:00:19.942
walk in bold faith, and expect a bold God to show up.

00:00:20.102 --> 00:00:25.682
I'm your host, Connie Morris, and we open every episode with the same unshakable

00:00:25.682 --> 00:00:29.622
confidence Jabez had in 1 Chronicles 4.10.

00:00:29.862 --> 00:00:33.482
Lord, bless me indeed, enlarge my territory.

00:00:33.882 --> 00:00:38.782
Let your hand be with me. Keep me from evil and keep me from causing pain.

00:00:38.782 --> 00:00:41.882
And the Bible says, God granted his request.

00:00:42.042 --> 00:00:45.582
So if you're here today, get ready, because we're praying big,

00:00:45.962 --> 00:00:51.802
believing big, and walking in everything God promised. Let's begin.

00:01:01.101 --> 00:01:05.301
Hello and welcome back to the Diary of a Black Woman podcast.

00:01:05.381 --> 00:01:15.501
We are on episode 15, the final episode of the 2026th year of Heaven and Earth Intersect series.

00:01:15.841 --> 00:01:19.481
I'm your host Connie Morris and today we're going to step into a prophetic moment

00:01:19.481 --> 00:01:27.681
called the Great Crossing, stepping into the new season, God has prepared for 2026.

00:01:28.201 --> 00:01:33.061
This is a moment where God says, what was behind you is over.

00:01:33.281 --> 00:01:36.721
What is ahead of you begins now.

00:01:37.201 --> 00:01:43.701
The shaking prepared you, the separation refined you, and the glory is rising upon you.

00:01:43.861 --> 00:01:51.841
We now step into the new season, the realm, the new destiny God has designed for us in 2026.

00:01:52.201 --> 00:01:58.421
And so we prepped this out in December. We're now at the January 10th.

00:01:58.501 --> 00:02:04.461
And so it's an opportunity now that you have an idea of what to expect in 2026.

00:02:04.801 --> 00:02:10.701
For the next parts of the episodes, as far as rest of January and February,

00:02:11.041 --> 00:02:16.501
there's going to be a theme for each and every month so that we can stay focused on what God is doing.

00:02:16.641 --> 00:02:21.661
So this is an overview where you started to get everything ready for this year

00:02:21.661 --> 00:02:27.821
and you're absorbing it you should be now in a state of praying more maybe praying more

00:02:28.000 --> 00:02:33.480
living a fasted life, starting to have a little more discernment about who you

00:02:33.480 --> 00:02:36.760
need to be around you. You should be walking in holiness.

00:02:37.080 --> 00:02:43.040
And so it comes a point when God says, okay, now is your time to cross over.

00:02:43.200 --> 00:02:47.220
So every month there's going to be a crossing over, some things that you're

00:02:47.220 --> 00:02:50.460
going to leave behind and things that you're going to go forward to,

00:02:50.620 --> 00:02:52.140
but you're not going to look backwards.

00:02:52.260 --> 00:02:56.780
So I'm not just going to leave you with this 15 episode series and then expect

00:02:56.780 --> 00:02:58.940
you to get through the rest of the year on your own.

00:02:59.100 --> 00:03:04.720
We're going to partner together so that we all can cross over at the same time.

00:03:05.020 --> 00:03:11.420
So let's go on into our teaching. The Hebrew year 5786 is a year of crossing over.

00:03:11.740 --> 00:03:17.880
86 prophetically represents the crossing of thresholds, stepping in,

00:03:18.200 --> 00:03:20.360
stepping from the old into the new.

00:03:20.780 --> 00:03:26.340
Transition with purpose, moving out of survival mode into assignment mode,

00:03:26.340 --> 00:03:29.920
heaven's timing intersecting earth,

00:03:30.340 --> 00:03:37.140
a divine move from wandering to walking in purpose, and a spiritual door opening.

00:03:37.400 --> 00:03:42.040
The number six symbolizes the connection between heaven and earth,

00:03:42.320 --> 00:03:46.660
the spiritual bridge, where God pulls you into destiny.

00:03:46.860 --> 00:03:50.520
57 is a year where heaven says, cross

00:03:50.520 --> 00:03:53.280
now don't delay this is

00:03:53.280 --> 00:03:56.660
your prophetic Jordan River moment so

00:03:56.660 --> 00:04:01.520
God is saying like after all that he's prepped you for that this year is going

00:04:01.520 --> 00:04:05.260
to be a year of crossing over now each one of us are going to cross over at

00:04:05.260 --> 00:04:09.120
different times but this is the year of crossing over remember that crossing

00:04:09.120 --> 00:04:15.280
over depends a lot on you and your connection to standing in that intimacy that secret place,

00:04:15.380 --> 00:04:18.000
that abiding place with God, being obedient.

00:04:18.560 --> 00:04:23.120
Having discernment, following his instructions until you physically step over

00:04:23.120 --> 00:04:27.320
into this newness, right? It can start today, it can start tomorrow.

00:04:27.838 --> 00:04:31.338
We don't know. You don't know when God's going to say it's time for you to cross

00:04:31.338 --> 00:04:35.178
over and then poof, you're into your new assignment, right?

00:04:35.358 --> 00:04:38.438
So what does it mean when God says we're going to cross over?

00:04:38.578 --> 00:04:41.718
Because we've been talking a lot about this. We're in our final episode.

00:04:41.938 --> 00:04:45.258
And so I want to seal it, but I don't want you to think that this is it.

00:04:45.358 --> 00:04:49.018
There's going to be more each and every month to keep you on course.

00:04:49.018 --> 00:04:55.178
Crossing over literally means leaving an old season, stepping into a new purpose,

00:04:55.578 --> 00:04:57.978
elevating into a divine assignment,

00:04:58.518 --> 00:05:04.438
saying goodbye to what was, embracing what is emerging, and walking into promise,

00:05:04.858 --> 00:05:07.818
shifting from preparation to manifestation.

00:05:08.478 --> 00:05:11.818
Crossing over is movement, not just revelation.

00:05:11.818 --> 00:05:18.178
This is the spiritual shift from bondage to freedom, wandering to direction,

00:05:18.598 --> 00:05:21.598
preparation to purpose, getting to walking.

00:05:22.158 --> 00:05:29.178
Surviving to thriving, fear to faith, identity crisis to identity clarity.

00:05:29.178 --> 00:05:34.338
You cannot cross over passively. You must cross intentionally.

00:05:34.678 --> 00:05:42.398
And I want to share with you some biblical crossing that will mirror 2026. And so let's go.

00:05:42.598 --> 00:05:47.698
So there is about six of them. So there's six biblical crossings.

00:05:48.238 --> 00:05:53.398
Israel crossing the Jordan as found in Joshua 3, a generation that wandered

00:05:53.398 --> 00:05:55.598
finally stepped into promise.

00:05:55.898 --> 00:06:02.678
The waters didn't part until their feet moved. It's the story of Joshua taking the Moses had died.

00:06:02.958 --> 00:06:09.798
And so Joshua was now the leader and their first crossing after the Red Sea with Moses.

00:06:09.798 --> 00:06:16.598
Now they're crossing Jordan with Joshua and they, the waters kept flowing until

00:06:16.598 --> 00:06:20.638
the gentleman who's the, I think it was the Levi's carrying the ark that they

00:06:20.638 --> 00:06:24.438
stepped their water, their feet in the water and then the water stopped.

00:06:24.885 --> 00:06:31.405
Began to clear and dry out instantly. Instantly, there was a supernatural movement of the crossing.

00:06:31.585 --> 00:06:35.445
So understanding that when we cross over, it won't be sloppy muddy.

00:06:35.445 --> 00:06:39.945
It will be dry land, but you do have to step first.

00:06:40.105 --> 00:06:44.105
So it's going to be a year where God's going to call you to do something and

00:06:44.105 --> 00:06:45.445
you're going to have to do it.

00:06:45.605 --> 00:06:49.025
And then as you do it, even though it may look impossible, who thought they

00:06:49.025 --> 00:06:51.625
were going to walk across a lake at Jordan River?

00:06:51.885 --> 00:06:55.005
It looks like it's not a small, it's a Jordan River.

00:06:55.165 --> 00:06:58.105
It's a river. If you ever cross over a river, it's going to be wet.

00:06:58.225 --> 00:07:02.165
You don't know what's at the bottom, but God always makes sure it's safe and it's dry.

00:07:02.405 --> 00:07:04.705
Let's go to Moses at the Red Sea, Exodus 14.

00:07:05.297 --> 00:07:08.837
God said, go forward, even when the path looked impossible.

00:07:09.137 --> 00:07:15.817
So they too had to walk towards the water and just move and then watch God do the rest, right?

00:07:15.977 --> 00:07:19.757
So as they moved in faith, God parted the Red Sea.

00:07:19.977 --> 00:07:23.517
The Red Sea, remember they said there was walls on both sides.

00:07:23.857 --> 00:07:28.697
So that could be scary because it won't be a quiet moment when God tells you to do it.

00:07:28.757 --> 00:07:33.077
Remember that water is still trying to, you can hear the water running.

00:07:33.077 --> 00:07:37.917
And you know, if that wall falls down, hey, you're not a swimmer, you may drown.

00:07:38.197 --> 00:07:43.117
And we know the end of the story that the walls did fall down on Pharaoh and

00:07:43.117 --> 00:07:45.377
his army, and they did drown.

00:07:45.677 --> 00:07:50.917
So when God says, go forward, go forward, we see Israel, you have to put your feet in it.

00:07:51.257 --> 00:07:56.317
And then Ruth crossing into Bethlehem, Ruth made a decision in Ruth 1 and 2

00:07:56.317 --> 00:08:01.017
to leave what she'd known to follow God, right? Right.

00:08:01.177 --> 00:08:07.517
So it was Ruth had to say, OK, what I thought I wanted, I'm not going to do that anymore.

00:08:07.857 --> 00:08:12.757
Your God will be my God. He told she told Naomi, your God will be my God.

00:08:12.997 --> 00:08:19.117
And then she had to make that move to cross the border and enter her destiny.

00:08:19.357 --> 00:08:24.197
She did not know that Boaz was on the other side. She just knew that she didn't

00:08:24.197 --> 00:08:28.977
want to stay where she was, that she was going to follow Naomi. and there she did.

00:08:29.177 --> 00:08:32.437
She took care of Naomi and that's where she met her.

00:08:32.880 --> 00:08:39.040
Boaz. She met not just a Boaz. If you study Ruth, this guy was a redeemer.

00:08:39.320 --> 00:08:44.760
He represented Jesus in there. And then she became on the lineage of Jesus.

00:08:44.880 --> 00:08:50.800
So you have to read that story because it's a powerful story of how Ruth had

00:08:50.800 --> 00:08:56.160
a restoration because she left her comfort zone and went into an uncomfort place.

00:08:56.340 --> 00:08:59.320
But she didn't just go there and just filter around.

00:08:59.540 --> 00:09:07.360
Naomi was giving her instructions on where to go to glean from the farm, from the land.

00:09:07.880 --> 00:09:12.420
And if she get there, the obedience from Naomi, remember obedience is a key,

00:09:12.700 --> 00:09:16.680
that she was able to, she wasn't going looking for Boaz.

00:09:17.080 --> 00:09:20.400
Boaz, you read the story, Boaz heard so much about her.

00:09:20.540 --> 00:09:23.660
So when she came into the land, you know how new people come into the land,

00:09:23.820 --> 00:09:27.040
they already know your history because it follows you.

00:09:27.420 --> 00:09:30.400
And he was impressed with her just from what she did for Naomi.

00:09:31.160 --> 00:09:34.020
And Naomi might have said, I got somebody over here.

00:09:35.000 --> 00:09:39.060
So Naomi might have had a little bit of wordage for it, but I don't know.

00:09:39.120 --> 00:09:40.900
It doesn't say that in the Bible, so I'm not going to make it up.

00:09:41.060 --> 00:09:48.100
So we saw that she said, follow. There is a kinsman redeemer that would keep

00:09:48.100 --> 00:09:51.700
you safe. So go there and glean from the land.

00:09:51.840 --> 00:09:55.280
And that's what she did. She gleaned from the land. And so we know that when

00:09:55.280 --> 00:09:56.980
she crossed over, she met her Boaz.

00:09:57.300 --> 00:10:02.860
David leaving the field, 1 Samuel 16. David crossing from obscurity to anointing.

00:10:02.860 --> 00:10:06.860
Remember, he was a shepherd, 1 Samuel 16. He was a shepherd.

00:10:07.220 --> 00:10:12.620
The guy came over, I can't think of his name, looking for a king to anoint.

00:10:12.820 --> 00:10:17.800
And so the father pointed to all his sons and then his son said, no, this is not it.

00:10:18.080 --> 00:10:21.340
He said, well, I have one more son and that son is in the field.

00:10:21.500 --> 00:10:26.640
And so he said, go get them. And so at that point, he anointed David to be king,

00:10:26.880 --> 00:10:28.520
but David was still a kid.

00:10:28.680 --> 00:10:31.540
And we know that if you follow the story, first thing David did,

00:10:31.840 --> 00:10:35.500
after that, he ended up killing Goliath.

00:10:35.600 --> 00:10:38.740
And his story goes on from there. He was anointed to be king.

00:10:39.146 --> 00:10:45.306
As a child who was a shepherd. He had to cross over from the field to kingship.

00:10:45.646 --> 00:10:49.726
Esther entered the king's court, Esther 4 and 5. We should all know that story,

00:10:49.826 --> 00:10:51.586
but if not, read Esther 4 and 5.

00:10:51.866 --> 00:10:54.206
And then Esther found out, and

00:10:54.206 --> 00:10:58.906
Mordecai was like, no, you were brought to this for such a time as this.

00:10:59.146 --> 00:11:04.486
And so Esther prayed, and he fasted. She said, if I go before the king too early, he may kill me.

00:11:04.826 --> 00:11:10.186
But Esther decided that if I die, I die. So she made a bold statement that I'm

00:11:10.186 --> 00:11:11.846
going to do what I'm supposed to do.

00:11:11.946 --> 00:11:14.706
And if it kills me, I would just be dead.

00:11:14.846 --> 00:11:18.166
But if it don't, I'm going to talk to the king about what's going on.

00:11:18.286 --> 00:11:24.906
And we know the story that the king put forth his scepter and told the queen

00:11:24.906 --> 00:11:27.426
Esther to come on in. What do you have? What's on your mind?

00:11:27.666 --> 00:11:31.006
And now she hesitated a few minutes. She said, I want to prepare a supper and

00:11:31.006 --> 00:11:32.266
we'll talk about it over supper.

00:11:32.586 --> 00:11:36.646
But I want you to invite Haman. Haman is the guy's name.

00:11:36.966 --> 00:11:41.766
Invite Haman to the party too. Haman was all excited, but he did not know it

00:11:41.766 --> 00:11:44.786
was a setup. And so we got to be smart like Esther.

00:11:45.166 --> 00:11:51.066
Esther used wisdom, godly wisdom from people that surrounded her that gave her wisdom.

00:11:51.226 --> 00:11:53.986
That was her, I think it was her stepdad, Mordecai.

00:11:54.286 --> 00:11:57.406
And then finally, Jesus, beginning of his ministry, Matthew 4,

00:11:57.706 --> 00:12:00.026
a crossing from hiddenness to public assignment.

00:12:00.246 --> 00:12:06.566
Jesus came to earth. He was quiet, but when it came for him to walk in his assignment.

00:12:07.106 --> 00:12:10.726
Nothing about him since when he was 12 years old, it changed.

00:12:10.886 --> 00:12:12.466
Something shifted in him. He

00:12:12.466 --> 00:12:18.846
crossed over from being just a son of Mary to being the Savior for Mary.

00:12:19.006 --> 00:12:24.066
So every crossing will require faith, obedience, courage, alignment.

00:12:24.526 --> 00:12:25.606
Surrender, and movement.

00:12:26.026 --> 00:12:30.606
2026 requires all of these. What are you crossing out of?

00:12:30.706 --> 00:12:34.106
What are we leaving behind as we cross into our new?

00:12:34.346 --> 00:12:39.266
We're leaving behind, you need to literally say this, I'm leaving behind old

00:12:39.266 --> 00:12:43.866
fears, old patterns, old emotional cycles, old disappointments,

00:12:44.187 --> 00:12:50.227
old survival mentality, old identity, old relationships, old comfort zones,

00:12:50.567 --> 00:12:55.027
old assignments, old environments, old wounds.

00:12:55.267 --> 00:13:01.547
86 is the year God says, you do not get to bring Egypt into Canaan.

00:13:01.667 --> 00:13:05.467
So you cannot bring your old into your new.

00:13:05.627 --> 00:13:10.827
So he said, I'm getting rid of all that before you cross over. No extra baggage here.

00:13:11.147 --> 00:13:14.507
You travel overseas, you might get two large bags.

00:13:14.767 --> 00:13:19.807
Just traveling domestic, you get one bag. It has to weigh a certain amount and be a certain size.

00:13:19.947 --> 00:13:23.687
And so God says you can't bring none of that old stuff with you.

00:13:24.127 --> 00:13:29.887
What held you in the wilderness can't cross with you into the promise.

00:13:30.107 --> 00:13:31.627
What are you crossing into?

00:13:31.867 --> 00:13:36.907
You're crossing into new spiritual authority. The shaking prepared your mantle.

00:13:37.207 --> 00:13:40.907
New levels of discernment. You will see with greater clarity.

00:13:41.347 --> 00:13:45.187
New assignments. Your purpose is becoming active.

00:13:45.707 --> 00:13:52.507
New alignments. Your tribe is gathering. New wisdom. You are thinking different. New doors.

00:13:53.047 --> 00:13:58.367
Access you never had before. New stability. God is establishing you.

00:13:58.627 --> 00:14:03.047
New glory. The glory that will hover will now manifest.

00:14:03.327 --> 00:14:05.287
Hallelujah. New identity.

00:14:05.887 --> 00:14:11.887
Who you used to be no longer define you and new rest. This is a year where your soul.

00:14:12.436 --> 00:14:18.516
Exhales. You're not stepping into a new year. You are stepping into a new dimension.

00:14:18.996 --> 00:14:24.056
Remember, you can't bring it with you. How do you cross into your new season?

00:14:24.296 --> 00:14:26.956
You step with faith, not feelings.

00:14:27.276 --> 00:14:30.676
So that means you might be shaky. You might be anxious.

00:14:31.016 --> 00:14:35.296
You might be trying to say, might be trying to worry you and give you fear.

00:14:35.376 --> 00:14:36.816
But he says you can't use that.

00:14:36.976 --> 00:14:41.856
You have to trust what we've already discussed for the last 14 episodes,

00:14:42.136 --> 00:14:47.056
that you have to use your faith and not your feelings. You have to let go completely.

00:14:47.356 --> 00:14:53.116
Partial surrender will keep you stuck. You see the story of Lot's wife. We covered that.

00:14:53.256 --> 00:15:00.236
That Lot's wife, she did one thing, she left, but she violated the rule number two, don't look back.

00:15:00.456 --> 00:15:04.176
And so when she looked back, she was stuck. So if you find yourself looking

00:15:04.176 --> 00:15:07.096
back, thinking back, you are going to be stuck.

00:15:07.296 --> 00:15:11.896
So let go of everything that you thought that you knew about your future.

00:15:12.196 --> 00:15:16.456
Let that stay in this old season. Say yes without conditions.

00:15:16.956 --> 00:15:22.316
5, 7, 8, 6 requires full obedience, not partial obedience. Follow the cloud.

00:15:22.616 --> 00:15:27.076
When God moves, you move. You just do what God does. You are in his shadow,

00:15:27.156 --> 00:15:29.236
right? You are abiding in his shadow.

00:15:29.656 --> 00:15:35.636
So if it's shadow moves, you're not moving with it. You're no longer under the shadow, right?

00:15:35.976 --> 00:15:40.696
Stay consecrated. You cannot cross casually. So you need to stay consecrated.

00:15:41.334 --> 00:15:44.774
Guard your mind. Old thinking will sabotage your new destiny.

00:15:45.194 --> 00:15:47.914
Expect supernatural assistance.

00:15:48.414 --> 00:15:53.474
Crossing always attracts angels and divine help. You won't have to do this alone.

00:15:53.934 --> 00:15:57.934
And then finally, eight, move in silence. Now everyone needs to know your next

00:15:57.934 --> 00:16:00.894
step. So keep it to yourself. Just go.

00:16:01.254 --> 00:16:03.234
Everyone does need to know your next step.

00:16:03.614 --> 00:16:07.854
Crossing is an act of worship. Signs you are ready to cross over.

00:16:08.154 --> 00:16:11.394
Are y'all ready to cross over? I know I'm ready. Let's do this.

00:16:11.534 --> 00:16:14.874
You feel stronger pull away from old environments.

00:16:15.154 --> 00:16:17.294
Your hunger for God has increased.

00:16:17.714 --> 00:16:22.494
You are uncomfortable in the familiar. Your spirit is in transition.

00:16:22.894 --> 00:16:27.194
You feel clarity about what must end. You're starting to see clear now.

00:16:27.374 --> 00:16:30.294
You feel drawn to what strengthens your identity.

00:16:30.614 --> 00:16:35.214
New ideas and visions are stirring, even dreams. You are no longer emotionally

00:16:35.214 --> 00:16:37.174
tied to what once held you.

00:16:37.614 --> 00:16:41.634
And then finally you feel a spiritual yes you can't ignore.

00:16:41.914 --> 00:16:46.634
So we've been prepped up to this moment so that we all can cross over.

00:16:46.774 --> 00:16:51.834
We still might not cross over at the same time, but we will see you on the other side.

00:16:52.234 --> 00:16:58.654
Your spiritual spirit has already crossed. Now your life is catching. Let's decree.

00:16:59.074 --> 00:17:04.954
Declare this out loud. I cross over into my new season. I step into purpose,

00:17:05.114 --> 00:17:06.914
alignment, and clarity in destiny.

00:17:07.274 --> 00:17:10.814
Every old cycle breaks. Every old pattern ends.

00:17:11.134 --> 00:17:15.334
Every old fear dissolves. I walk through the threshold God has opened.

00:17:15.574 --> 00:17:19.594
I cross over by faith, by obedience, by divine timing.

00:17:20.374 --> 00:17:22.274
2026 is my year,

00:17:22.717 --> 00:17:28.457
of promise. Let's pray. Father, lead me across the threshold in this new season.

00:17:28.677 --> 00:17:33.817
Give me boldness to step forward, courage to let go, discernment to recognize

00:17:33.817 --> 00:17:38.197
your timing, and a spirit of obedience to move when you say move.

00:17:38.437 --> 00:17:45.197
Let every barrier part, let every hindrance fall, and let every promise open before me.

00:17:45.377 --> 00:17:53.237
I cross over into destiny, into purpose, and into the glory of 2026. In Jesus' name. Amen.

00:17:53.597 --> 00:17:58.517
Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. I appreciate your time listening to the podcast,

00:17:58.517 --> 00:18:01.877
and I hope you have a great 2026 year.

00:18:02.097 --> 00:18:07.097
We're going to break this down even more into more bite-sized pieces so that

00:18:07.097 --> 00:18:11.917
we all can cross over, that we all won't get stuck like lost wife,

00:18:12.137 --> 00:18:17.457
but we will walk in 2026 under a new anointing, a new assignment,

00:18:17.617 --> 00:18:20.117
a new purpose, a new relationship with Jesus.

00:18:20.457 --> 00:18:26.137
And I give you praise, Lord, for this and those listening, that we will all

00:18:26.137 --> 00:18:28.537
cross over in Jesus' name. Amen.

00:18:28.977 --> 00:18:31.297
I'll see you on the next episode. Goodbye.

00:18:42.513 --> 00:18:46.973
Family, thank you for spending this time with me today. To every woman listening

00:18:46.973 --> 00:18:52.753
who has ever felt hidden, overlooked, or pushed aside, I want you to hear me clearly.

00:18:53.033 --> 00:18:55.953
God has not forgotten you, and neither have I.

00:18:56.113 --> 00:19:01.413
That's why I moved everything to our new home on pod page, so you would have

00:19:01.413 --> 00:19:04.953
one place to connect with me, read the devotionals, listen to the podcast,

00:19:05.293 --> 00:19:07.193
and reach out whenever you need to.

00:19:07.373 --> 00:19:12.193
If you want to leave me a message, send an email, or simply find encouragement,

00:19:12.193 --> 00:19:15.873
it's all there at diaryofablackwomanllc.com.

00:19:15.973 --> 00:19:20.053

00:19:20.293 --> 00:19:23.913
you'll find a buy me, a coffee link on the site as well.

00:19:24.193 --> 00:19:28.313
No pressure, just love and community. Before we leave, I want to speak the word

00:19:28.313 --> 00:19:31.313
that I close with every time because somebody needs this reminder today.

00:19:31.513 --> 00:19:34.213
It comes from Jeremiah 29 11 14.

00:19:34.513 --> 00:19:39.053
I know the plans I have for you, declares the Lord, plans to prosper you and

00:19:39.053 --> 00:19:43.193
not to harm you, plans to give you hope in a future, then you will call upon

00:19:43.193 --> 00:19:46.373
me and come and pray to me and I will listen to you.

00:19:46.533 --> 00:19:50.213
You will seek me and find me when you seek me with all your heart.

00:19:50.213 --> 00:19:53.853
I will be found by you, declares the Lord.

00:19:54.253 --> 00:19:58.753
Beloved, God has a plan for your life, a real one, a good one.

00:19:58.893 --> 00:20:03.693
And as long as you keep seeking him, you will find him even from the hidden places.

00:20:03.753 --> 00:20:07.273
I love you. I'm praying for you, and I'll meet you next time.
