Today’s Feast
May 8, 2014 – Jeremiah 2
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.
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.
