Because You Have Obeyed

Today’s Feast June 10, 2014- Jeremiah 35 Because You Have Obeyed clic aquí en español * 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 And this is love: that we walk in obedience to his commands. As you have heard from the beginning, his command is that you walk in love.” 2 John 1:6 Return to Admenu – Admenu’s Alternate Site   Dear Saints, Today we prayerfully continue our Feast reading the book of Jeremiah Chapter 35 Verses 1-11 “Jonadab was famous for wisdom and piety. He lived nearly ( 2 Kings. 10:15 ) to drink wine. He also appointed them to dwell in tents, or movable dwelling: this would teach them not to think of settling any where in this world. To keep low, would be the way to continue long in the land where they were strangers. Humility and contentment are always the best policy, and men's surest protection. Also, that they might not run into unlawful pleasures, they were to deny themselves even lawful delights. The consideration that we are strangers and pilgrims should oblige us to abstain from all fleshly lusts...” Verses 12-19 “The trial of the Rechabites' constancy was for a sign; it made the disobedience of the Jews to God the more marked. The Rechabites were obedient to one who was but a man like themselves, and Jonadab never did for his seed what God has done for his people. Mercy is promised to the Rechabites. We are not told respecting the performance of this promise; but doubtless it was performed, and travellers say the Rechabites may be found a separate people to this day. Let us follow the counsels of our pious forefathers, and we shall find good in so doing.” -  Matthew Henry Concise  “18 Then Jeremiah said to the family of the Recabites, "This is what the LORD Almighty, the God of Israel, says: 'You have obeyed the command of your forefather Jonadab and have followed all his instructions and have done everything he ordered.' 19 Therefore, this is what the LORD Almighty, the God of Israel, says: 'Jonadab son of Recab will never fail to have a man to serve me.' "” Jeremiah 35:18-19 English Standard Versions (ESV).  I am reminded here that; the first commandment that comes with a promise (see Ephesians 6:2) is to obey our parents. What our Lord Jesus asks of us is asked in love, (see 1 John 5:3) is to be delivered in love.  “13 Bear with each other and forgive whatever grievances you may have against one another. Forgive as the Lord forgave you.“  Colossians 3:13 ESV.  Every good gift comes from (see James 1:17) God our Father in loving mercy.  We are asked to humbly deliver the good news (see Ephesians 4:2) to our neighbors in love.  Can you hear Jesus lovingly calling you?  Do you want to be free from sorrow?  Do you want to find true happiness, peace and purpose in your life?  If the answer is yes to any of these questions please click the following link; http://www.admenu.com/calling.htm The Feast does belong to Jesus!
