TODAY’S TEXT:
Jeremiah 18:18, 20.
“Then said they, Come, and let us devise devices against Jeremiah… Come, and let us smite him with the tongue, and let us not give heed to any of his words. Shall evil be recompensed for good? for they have digged a pit for my soul. Remember that I stood before thee to speak good for them, and to turn away thy wrath from them.”
TODAY’S MESSAGE:
In the last part of this series, we saw the righteous Job; a man that fear God and eschew evil. Notwithstanding, Satan haunted him to the level, that his wife was fed up and she asked him to curse God in order to die and be free of his predicament.
However, our today’s text, present us with the evil counsel established against prophet Jeremiah to haunt him. The enemies devised means to silence him, rendered him useless and fruitless.
Meanwhile, despite their lies, their uproar, their imprisonment and beating, Jeremiah remain good to them and he focused on what God has to say, to his generation.
Furthermore, the scripture says: “Wherefore ye be witnesses unto yourselves, that ye are the children of them which killed the prophets.”
(Matthew 23:31) So, this is the pointer that the children of the wicked one, inherits wickedness, therefore, children of the righteous, should definitely inherits righteousness. Let ensure our wards, inherits from us, the fear of God and righteousness.
Finally, our memory verse expressly stated that, “…When the enemy shall come in like a flood, the Spirit of the LORD shall lift up a standard against him.” Dear friend, be rest assured that you are not alone, God got your back. May the spirit of God, continue to raise a standard against every flood, the enemies sends your way in Jesus name. Amen.
God bless you. *Jesus is coming soon.* Be prepared.
