Israel Forsakes the Lord

Gods Not Dead! Please join us sharing God’s Word daily.  We will spend about fifteen minutes a day praying and reading every word in God’s Word in approximately three years.

But I have this against you, that you have abandoned the love you had at first. Revelation 2:4


Jeremiah Chapter 2, God expostulates with his people. (1-8) Their revolt beyond example. (9-13) Guilt the cause of sufferings. (14-19) The sins of Judah. (20-28) Their false confidence. (29-37)  -  Matthew Henry Concise

Dear Saints,

Today we prayerfully continue our Feast reading the book of Jeremiah Chapter 2.  The Prophet Jeremiah witnessed that God’s chosen people that had loved God in the beginning (see Jeremiah 2:1-8) now have turned to condone and follow after other god’s that are not.   God is calling his people back because they have turned to follow foreign gods (see Jeremiah 2:9-13), even though they are not God.  The deeds of God’s people have brought bitter doom (see Jeremiah 2:14-19) upon themselves by rejecting God’s love.  These people are living in bitterness and shame (see Jer 2:20-28) because they traded God’s law for the laws that are worldly. My chosen people have turned against me to their own destruction (see Jeremiah 2:29-37) by denying God’s glory.  “36 How much you go about, changing your way! You shall be put to shame by Egypt as you were put to shame by Assyria.  37 From it too you will come away with your hands on your head, for the Lord has rejected those in whom you trust, and you will not prosper by them. Jeremiah 2:36-37  English Standard Versions (ESV).    Can a nation that says “In God We Trust” survive (see Jeremiah 2:23) when it passes laws that support sin?  “Walk in wisdom toward outsiders, making the best use of the time. Let your speech always be gracious, seasoned with salt, so that you may know how you ought to answer each person.   Colossians 4:5-6  ESV. We must ask ourselves if we support sin (see James 1:13-18); what kind of message are we sending our children?  As Christians we must (see Matthew 22:37) love the Lord our God with all are hearts.  If we don’t love the Lord our God with every fiber of our being (see 2 Peter 2:21) we are turning away from Jesus.  God loves us so much that he sent His only begotten (see John 3:16) Son Jesus to pay for our transgressions.
