Today’s word comes from Jeremiah chapter 45 and 46.The Lord spoke to Jeremiah concerning Baruch.Baruch said woe to himself that the Lord has added grief to the sorrow.thus the Lord said to him what I have built I will break what I have planted I will pluck, don’t seek great things for yourself for adversity will befall the flesh but life will be given unto Baruch were he goes.The Lord also spoke about the destruction that was to befall Egypt and all the other nations that idol worship.These nations depend on their bucklers,shield, chariots and horses for war.they depended on the strength of their mighty men and the Swift men. The Lord declared vengeance on these nations and many men fell by the sword in hands of the king of babylon. The Egyptians tried some medicine to cure them but they were not fruitful. The Lord destroyed these nations but as for the tribe of Jacob who dwelt in these lands He didn’t bring total destruction upon them but will rightly correct them.
As Christians have we allowed the flesh to take charge of our lives are we more into lifestyle,wealth, enjoyment than the word? Do we think we have the power and the might to over come any adversity on our own ? Do we ask the Holly Spirit to work in ask and help us through?
Not by might not by power but by the spirit says the Lord. Lord send your spirit to work in me to create a clean heart.
