Individual Decisions {Jeremiah 34-38}
12:30 AM
July 24, 2018
I know a lot of people read the book of Jeremiah and see a nation being warned
to repent of their sins, but for me, I see it as an individual warning. Each one of us needs to make that decision
because how we behave and interact with others, does have an impact on those
around us. As believers, joined together,
we are a nation, and we are called to be the light that shines for all to see.
(Matthew 5:16)
There
is one that that is certain, “Faith comes from hearing the message, and the
message is heard through the WORD about Christ.” Romans 10:17 (emphasis mine)
I
have heard people try to explain or rationalize and analyze scripture, but let
this be a warning; when Kimg Jehoiakim cut the scroll and then burned it, he
was breaking the covenant with God. If
it weren’t for the remnant of the people of that time to remain steadfast in
their commitment to God, we would not have the Word of God for us to gain
wisdom and understanding of the Lord.
Be
like the Rekabites and remain committed to reading and studying the Word of God
and be a light to the rest of the world.
