The
Best of the Feast
Threatened with Death
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.
Gods Not Dead!
“27 For I have not
shunned to declare to you the whole counsel of God.” Acts 20:27 New King James Version (NKJV).
Dear Saints,
Today
we prayerfully continue our Feast reading the book of Jeremiah Chapter 26.
The Word of the Lord came to Jeremiah. God commanded him to speak to
his people (see Jeremiah 26::1-7) and do not hold back one Word God
has spoken. I know from experience
when the Holy Spirit urges us to speak to a person about Jesus (see 2 Corinthians 5:20) that we are to obey,
knowing that an urgent need may be at hand. I rode a commuter train to
work for many years and on the journey (see Ephesians 6:19-20) I got to know many of
the people by playing chess and witnessing. One Friday night on the way
out from Los Angeles I played chess with a man named John. I felt like
I should be witnessing to John because I knew his religion was a false
religion. I was enjoying the chess game so much I reasoned that I could
witness about Jesus on Monday. After all we rode the same train
everyday five days a week. Then on Monday morning when I got to the
train station I didn’t see John so I asked some of the other passengers if
they knew why he wasn’t on the train today. One of the other passengers
told me; “John had a massive heart attack on Saturday and died.”
I can’t express how bad I felt did John die in his sin because I put
off telling him the truth about Jesus? I know for sure there is nothing
more urgent that the Word of God (see Titus 3:14) and as an ambassador for Christ I
should never reason away the urges of the Holy Spirit.
The
people set about to kill Jeremiah because they loved their traditions (see Jeremiah 26:7-15)
if they were to follow through and kill him because they didn’t like what God
was saying they would be destroyed. The people who were railing against
Jeremiah wouldn’t hesitate to kill a prophet from God (see Jeremiah 26:16-24)
because they loved the world and felt secure in their sin. God gave
Jeremiah favor and his life was spared; “24 Nevertheless the hand of Ahikam the son of Shaphan was with
Jeremiah, so that they should not give him into the hand of the people to put
him to death.” Jeremiah 26:24 NKJV. Our Lord and
Savior Jesus has given us eternal life and a purpose (see James 2:13-15)
there is no reason for us not act on the Word of God. “2 And I saw the holy city, new
Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God, prepared as a bride adorned
for her husband. 3 And I heard a loud voice from the throne saying,
“2 Then I, John, saw the holy city, New Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven
from God, prepared as a bride adorned for her husband. 3 And I heard a loud
voice from heaven saying, “Behold, the tabernacle of God is with men, and He
will dwell with them, and they shall be His people. God Himself will be with
them and be their God. 4 And God will wipe away every tear from their eyes;
there shall be no more death, nor sorrow, nor crying. There shall be no more
pain, for the former things have passed away.”“ Revelation 21: 2-4 NKJV.
There is no down side in turning from sin (see Ephesians 3:19-21)and accepting Jesus as our savior. Along with salvation
from sin comes life everlasting (see John 3:16) it is our gift from God. If
the Lord is willing I will write and post the Feast tomorrow.
Is Jesus calling you? Are you ready to accept Jesus’ and be set
free? Do you want to find true
happiness, peace, and purpose in your life?
