Today’s
Feast
June 9,
2014- Jeremiah 34
Zedekiah
to Die in Babylon
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 year. Gods Not
Dead!
“6 Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid or
terrified because of them, for the LORD your God goes with you; he will never
leave you nor forsake you."” Deuteronomy
31:6
Jeremiah Chapter 34; “Zedekiah's death at Babylon
foretold. (1-7) The Jews reproved for compelling their poor brethren
to return to unlawful bondage. (8-22)” -
Matthew Henry Concise
Dear
Saints,
“Verses 1-7 Zedekiah is told that
the city shall be taken, and that he shall die a captive, but he shall die a
natural death. It is better to live and die penitent in a prison, than to live
and die impenitent in a palace.
Verses
8-22 A Jew should not be held in servitude above
seven years. This law they and their fathers had broken. And when there was some
hope that the siege was raised, they forced the servants they had released into
their services again. Those who think to cheat God by dissembled repentance and
partial reformation, put the greatest cheat upon their own souls. This shows
that liberty to sin, is really only liberty to have the sorest judgments. It is
just with God to disappoint expectations of mercy, when we disappoint the
expectations of duty. And when reformation springs only from terror, it is
seldom lasting. Solemn vows thus entered into, profane the ordinances of God;
and the most forward to bind themselves by appeals to God, are commonly most
ready to break them. Let us look to our hearts, that our repentance may be real,
and take care that the law of God regulates our conduct.” -
Matthew Henry Concise
“22 Behold, I will command, declares the Lord,
and will bring them back to this city. And they will fight against it and take
it and burn it with fire. I will make the cities of Judah a desolation without
inhabitant.”” Jeremiah 34:22 English Standard Versions (ESV). Every verse we read today screams of God’s
glory, love and mercy (see
Peter
1:20-25 ) he
never turns away a person with a repentant, loving and contrite heart. “Enter by the narrow gate. For the gate is wide and the way is easy
that leads to destruction, and those who enter by it are many. For the gate is
narrow and the way is hard that leads to life, and those who find it are
few.“
Matthew 7:13-14 ESV.
Our God is righteous; Jesus is a perfect
man without sin (see
1 Peter 1:18-20) there is no other one fit to impart
righteousness to us. I’ve heard people
saying if God really loves us (see
1 Corinthians 1:18) why does he
allow … or he wouldn’t allow people to suffer. God gives us the freedom to see and evaluate
all of the possibilities for ourselves (see 2 Corinthians 4:3) so we
can see if we want to live in bondage to sin or not. While those who are perishing (see 1 Corinthians 1:18) are
blinded to the truth. We are ambassadors
for Christ, we are the light of the world and (see Matthew 5:14-16) Jesus
has put us here so those who are lost might see God’s love. If we imitate Jesus as we carry the Word we
will never (see john 8:12) walk in
darkness. Basing what we know for sure
about God’s love for the people in the world (see john 3:16) we know how
important it is to season all we do with (see 1 Corinthians 13:1-3)
LOVE. We understand (see 1 Corinthians 13:4-7)
what love is and what love is not.
Therefor we as ambassadors for Jesus will continue sharing God’s Love
until (see 1 Corinthians 13:8) love
ends.
