816.

A Warning for God's People


1. 

Today's Passage: Jeremiah 5:20-31


Get to know your bible. It will become a good friend.

Or find the passage NASB version on Bible Gateway here.
You can search for other versions there as well. Versions even in foreign languages.

Or, for your convenience I have typed the verses below from the
New Living Testament (NLT).



2.

Thank You for meeting me, LORD.
I welcome you into this place.
Please prepare my heart Jehovah.
Thank you for insight.

3.

13th strategy.
Foreshadowing, Promises,
and/or
​Fulfillment of Promises

  • Stop and pray. 
  • Ask God to open your heart to hear what He is calling you to take away from your time together this day.
  • Take the time to reread this passage one time.
  • Can you find any foreshadowing of days to come?
  • Can you find any applications in your own life from the historical acts in this passage?
  • Can you find a charge given by God to honor certain happenings?
  • ... a promise made by God?
  • ...a promise fulfilled by God?
  • Meditate on one of these. Write it down in your journal for later reflection.
  • Thank God for His presence in your life right this moment.


20. "Make this announcement to Israel, and say this to Judah:
21. Listen, you foolish and senseless people, with eyes that do not see and ears that do not hear.
22. Have you no respect for me? Why don't you tremble in my presence? I, the LORD, define the ocean's sandy shoreline as an everlasting boundary that the waters cannot cross. The waves may toss and roar, but they can never pass the boundaries I set.
23. But my people have stubborn and rebellious hearts.  They have turned away and abandoned me.
24. They do not say from the heart, 'Let us live in awe of the LORD our God, for he gives us rain each spring and fall, assuring us of a harvest when the time is right.'
25. Your wickedness has deprived you of these wonderful blessings. Your sin has robbed you of all these good things.

26. "Among my people are wicked men who lie in wait for victims like a hunter hiding in a blind. They continually set traps to catch people.
27. Like a cage filled with birds, their homes are filled with evil plots. And now they are great and rich. 
28. They are fat and sleek, and there is no limit to their wicked deeds. They refuse to provide justice to orphans and deny the rights of the poor.
29. Should I not punish them for this?" says the LORD. "Should I not avenge m yself against such a nation?
30. A horrible and shocking thing has happened in this land --
31. the prophets give false prophecies, and the priests rule with an iron hand. Worse yet, my people like it that way! But what will you do when the end comes?
Jeremiah 5:20-31 NLT

‘Let us live in awe of the LORD our God, for he gives us rain each spring and fall, assuring us of a harvest when the time is right.'

Does our country live like this?
I pray for our country this day of awareness at your being crucified for our sins, sweet Jesus.
Forgive us Lord.
But also help us to grow up in our spirituality. Remove the pacifier and milk bottle from our spiritual mouths and make our country and our churches cry out to sharpen our teeth in the meat of your Word.

Amen!
I frequently feel both sad and angry about the path our country seems to be on.
Lord please save this country...... make it yours again!
