Good day dear friends.
A reminder that through ConCafe we are making our way through the Bible in 52 weeks. We're already in our seventh month! God's Word is precious and powerful, but only if we take time to read it. It had been years since I read it through from page one to the last one, and for many that's also true. So, prayerfully and lovingly, read the recommended texts to get deeper into the word of God.
Here is our study guide for today:
Tuesday: Jeremiah 40, 41, 42, 43Trace the activities of Jeremiah through these several chapters.
Don't you love to hear what you want to hear? We seldom like hearing what we don't want to hear. It's almost a universal truth and it applies to the remnant of Judah in these chapters. One is murdered because he doesn't believe that someone would come and kill him. A man informed him that he was to die at the hand of Ishmael, but that if he wanted, he could go and kill Ishmael before he came and killed him. No way! Well, a few days later Ishamel comes and kills the man. In the same way, the remant of Judah wants Jeremiah to pray to God to ask what they should do. God tells them through Jeremiah, stay put. No, that's too easy, we're leaving.
If we listen to God, God has our best interests at heart. We may not hear what we want, but God will be with us.
PRAYER: Loving God, thank You for loving and being with us. Help me today hear Your voice guiding me to faithfulness. I pray in Jesus' Name, amen.
Have a great and blessed day in the Lord.
