LEADERS, AND ALL PEOPLE, NEED TO LISTEN AND OBEY HIS WORD! Yet neither the king nor any of his servants who heard all these words was afraid, nor did they tear their garments. —Jeremiah 36:24 But neither he nor his servants nor the people of the land listened to the words of the LORD that he spoke through Jeremiah the prophet. —Jeremiah 37:2             God was warning the Israelites through Jeremiah of impending wrath from Him through the Chaldeans, but they would not listen to the Word of the Lord.  Government leaders who will not listen to God’s Word are leading the people toward God’s judgment.  These leaders would rather…

COMMUNICATE WITH OUR LORD AND SERVE HIM! Thus says the LORD who made the earth, the LORD who formed it to establish it—the LORD is his name: Call to me and I will answer you, and will tell you great and hidden things that you have not known. —Jeremiah 33:2-3 And let our people learn to devote themselves to good works, so as to help cases of urgent need, and not be unfruitful. —Titus 3:14             Are you calling on His Name?  Do you expect Him to answer?  He says to us that He “will tell you great and hidden things that you have not known.”  How will this happen?  How…

SAFE IN GOD’S HANDS! This is what the Lord says, he who appoints the sun to shine by day, who decrees the moon and stars to shine by night, who stirs up the sea so that its waves roar— the Lord Almighty is his name: “Only if these decrees vanish from my sight,”   declares the Lord, “will Israel ever cease being a nation before me.”  declares the Lord.  This is what the Lord says: “Only if the heavens above can be measured and the foundations of the earth below be searched out will I reject all the descendants of Israel because of all they have done,” declares the LORD.  —Jeremiah 31:35-37 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9elcbyTG53s&list=RDMM&start_radio=1&rv=NQQT7e8ZKhU https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W0yL3N6CAAs “Behold, I am the LORD,…

PRAY FOR PEACE AND PROSPERITY WHERE WE LIVE Also, seek the peace and prosperity of the city to which I have carried you into exile. Pray to the Lord for it, because if it prospers, you too will prosper.” —Jeremiah 29:7 “For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the Lord, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.” —Jeremiah 29:11 Ask now, and see, can a man bear a child? Why then do I see every man with his hands on his stomach like a woman in labor? Why has every face turned pale? —Jeremiah 30:6             If ever our nation needs…

VERIFY THE TRUTH SO YOU BELIEVE NOT THE LIE Listen, Hananiah, the LORD has not sent you, and you have made this people trust in a lie. —Jeremiah 28:15              Wow… people can be made to trust the lies of another.  In this case from THE Book of Jeremiah the people were believing the false prophesy of a proclaimed prophet— Hananiah.  He was telling people the exact opposite from what our Lord was saying through Jeremiah.  What he said was what the people wanted to hear and they believed him.  They believed the lie they were made to believe.              Fellow follower of our Lord Jesus, we need to be…

A PERSON OR NATION REAPS WHAT IS SOWN— TURN TO OUR LORD GOD ALMIGHTY! “For twenty-three years, from the thirteenth year of Josiah the son of Amon, king of Judah, to this day, the word of the LORD has come to me, and I have spoken persistently to you, but you have not listened. You have neither listened nor inclined your ears to hear, although the LORD persistently sent to you all his servants the prophets, saying, ‘Turn now, every one of you, from his evil way and evil deeds, and dwell upon the land that the LORD has given to you and your fathers from of old and forever. Do not go…

BE LIGHT IN THE DARKNESS! “Behold, the days are coming, declares the LORD, when I will raise up for David a righteous Branch, and he shall reign as king and deal wisely, and shall execute justice and righteousness in the land. —Jeremiah 23:5 For the land is full of adulterers; because of the curse the land mourns, and the pastures of the wilderness are dried up. Their course is evil, and their might is not right.  “Both prophet and priest are ungodly; even in my house I have found their evil, declares the LORD. Therefore their way shall be to them like slippery paths in the darkness, into which they shall…

WOE IS ME IF I PREACH NOT THE GOSPEL! Now Pashhur the priest, the son of Immer, who was chief officer in the house of the LORD, heard Jeremiah prophesying these things. Then Pashhur beat Jeremiah the prophet, and put him in the stocks that were in the upper Benjamin Gate of the house of the LORD. —Jeremiah 20:1-2 If I say, “I will not mention him, or speak any more in his name,” there is in my heart as it were a burning fire shut up in my bones, and I am weary with holding it in, and I cannot. —Jeremiah 20:9 For when I preach the gospel, I cannot…

LOVE GOD!  HOPE IN HIM AND NOT MONEY! For the love of money is a root of all kinds of evils. —I Timothy 6:10 As for the rich in this present age, charge them not to be haughty, nor to set their hopes on the uncertainty of riches, but on God, who richly provides us with everything to enjoy. They are to do good, to be rich in good works, to be generous and ready to share, thus storing up treasure for themselves as a good foundation for the future, so that they may take hold of that which is truly life. —I Timothy 6:17-19              Money is neutral and can…

 HE KNOWS ALL! For my eyes are on all their ways. They are not hidden from me, nor is their iniquity concealed from my eyes. —Jeremiah 16:17             All the ways of all people living now or who have lived or will live are known by our Lord God Almighty.  They cannot hide from Him.  All the sin of all people are seen by Him.  Yes, He knows all.  You, me or anyone else are not able to keep anything from Him.  We may be able to do that with other people, but not with Him.             So, nobody is getting away with anything… nobody.  They can make all the…
