prosperity

Jeremiah 29:7
7 And work for the peace and prosperity of the city where I sent you into exile. Pray to the Lord for it, for its welfare will determine your welfare.”

God’s people are forced into exile in the city of Babylon. They want to live outside of town and would rather have nothing to do with the city, but God tells them to move right into the heart of the city and be a blessing. As the city prospers they prosper. As they prosper, the city prospers. In media, economics, politics, just about any arena you can think of, as goes the cities, so goes the world. God has a strategy. Living in Los Angeles, of course I totally agree.

Pray for urban Christians to be a blessing to their communities.
