A brief prophecy with a vast horizon: Jeremiah 33:14–16 names a future where justice is not a slogan but a person, and safety is not fragile but secured. We slow our pace for Day Seven of Advent, breathe together, and let this promise reshape our expectations for hope, holiness, and everyday courage. With Lauren back on the mic, we keep it simple and honest—no drumroll needed—just a clear reading, a grounded reflection, and a call to keep our eyes on Jesus.

We explore what it means to call Him the Righteous Branch, the descendant from David who does what is just and right throughout the land. That name—The Lord Is Our Righteousness—breaks the cycle of striving and turns righteousness from a checklist into a relationship. In a world that trades in anxiety and distraction, we talk about a different rhythm: short daily pauses that re-center the heart, prayer that makes space for presence, and watchfulness that looks like hope in action. Along the way, we share a few smiles, preview upcoming voices, and remember that joy belongs in the room when we speak about promise.

This conversation doubles as an invitation. Share the message with someone who needs a steady word. Stay watchful, stay praying, and stay ready—not with fear, but with a clear-eyed faith that the One who came is coming again. If this resonated with you, hit follow, send the link to a friend, and leave a review so more people can find Renewed Mindsets. Your encouragement helps others breathe, reset, and remember the hope that holds.

00:00:52.219 --> 00:00:54.460
Are you ready to go?

00:00:56.460 --> 00:00:59.420
Hey, welcome to Renewed Mindsets.

00:00:59.579 --> 00:01:02.299
I'm Rick, and I'm so glad you're here.

00:01:02.540 --> 00:01:04.299
Now, this is something special.

00:01:04.540 --> 00:01:15.180
For the next 25 days, we're gonna slow down, we're gonna quiet our hearts, and we're gonna turn our eyes towards Jesus as we walk through Advent together.

00:01:15.420 --> 00:01:24.620
Now every day we'll take a few minutes to breathe and reflect and remember the hope that came into the world and the hope that's coming again.

00:01:28.780 --> 00:01:30.299
Hey, we are back.

00:01:30.619 --> 00:01:33.340
Day seven of Advent.

00:01:34.299 --> 00:01:37.979
We've got I would do a drum roll if I had it, but I don't.

00:01:38.060 --> 00:01:39.099
We've got Lauren back.

00:01:39.259 --> 00:01:39.899
Hey guys.

00:01:40.140 --> 00:01:41.099
Hey, Lauren.

00:01:41.420 --> 00:01:42.700
Did you have a good Saturday?

00:01:42.939 --> 00:01:43.179
I did.

00:01:43.899 --> 00:01:44.140
Good.

00:01:44.299 --> 00:01:44.859
Me too.

00:01:45.099 --> 00:01:46.619
All right, let's get down to this.

00:01:46.780 --> 00:01:50.859
Jeremiah 33, verses 14 through 16.

00:01:51.739 --> 00:01:53.579
And run with it.

00:01:54.219 --> 00:02:00.219
The day will come, says the Lord, when I will do for Israel and Judah all the good things I have promised them.

00:02:00.539 --> 00:02:05.739
In those days and at that time I will raise up a righteous descendant from King David's line.

00:02:05.979 --> 00:02:08.860
He will do what is just and right throughout the land.

00:02:09.020 --> 00:02:14.939
In that day, Judah will be saved, and Jerusalem will live in safety, and this will be its name.

00:02:15.180 --> 00:02:17.259
The Lord is our righteousness.

00:02:18.460 --> 00:02:21.340
That's so short compared to what we did yesterday.

00:02:21.580 --> 00:02:22.700
It is short, but it's so good.

00:02:22.939 --> 00:02:25.340
But it is a good one, and it doesn't need to say a whole lot.

00:02:26.060 --> 00:02:28.300
It just talks about the righteous branch.

00:02:28.860 --> 00:02:31.099
Advent's righteous branch.

00:02:31.420 --> 00:02:32.060
Alright.

00:02:32.539 --> 00:02:37.659
Tomorrow, December 8th, we got Ashton back.

00:02:38.219 --> 00:02:40.539
And Lauren, are we gonna see you again?

00:02:40.859 --> 00:02:41.500
Yes, of course.

00:02:41.740 --> 00:02:43.180
When are we gonna see you again?

00:02:43.579 --> 00:02:44.620
Whenever you'll have me.

00:02:45.020 --> 00:02:45.340
Alright.

00:02:45.419 --> 00:02:47.259
Well, that'll be next weekend then.

00:02:47.500 --> 00:02:48.460
See y'all later.

00:02:48.699 --> 00:02:49.340
Bye.

00:02:53.740 --> 00:02:57.180
All right, thanks for joining me today on Renewed Mindsets.

00:02:57.259 --> 00:03:01.340
As we walk through Advent, let's stay expectant.

00:03:01.659 --> 00:03:08.939
Let's stay watching, praying, and keeping our hearts ready for the one who came and the one who's coming again soon.

00:03:09.259 --> 00:03:10.219
I love you.

00:03:10.620 --> 00:03:15.099
Let's keep our minds renewed and our eyes on Jesus.

00:03:16.620 --> 00:03:20.859
The executive producer of Renewed Mindsets is Christy McCurry.

00:03:22.859 --> 00:03:29.419
That's all for today, but I'll be back with more unfiltered biblical truth and undeniable prophecy.

00:03:29.659 --> 00:03:31.659
The time to wake up is now.

00:03:31.979 --> 00:03:36.060
