I The LORD Have Spoken…
There use to be a commercial on television of a financial firm called E. F. Hutton where in the midst of noisy crowds or other noises and such, a man would speak and all would get quiet. Then, a voice would say, "When E. F. Hutton speaks, people listen". I do not know if I …
A Gap to Stand In
Probably not the most profound title. Maybe not even a catchy one, but it is a title - "A Gap to Stand In". So let us stand in the gap. "Her priests have violated My law, and have profaned Mine holy things: they have put no difference between the holy and profane, neither have they …
Fire in the Forests
No! This is not dealing with the devastating, and catastrophic wildfires out West. This is not dealing with any fires of our day. The fire of the forests of our text have to do with God's judgment upon Judah; and I do believe this nation called the United States of America needs to wake up …
Why Will You Perish?
I hear people ask, "Why would a loving God send people to hell?" My answer has been, "He does not". Some who hear my answer and ask then, "Do you not preach that sinners go to hell?" or something along that order of thought. Of course I do believe in hell. I believe in hell …
I Will Remember MY Covenant
"Nevertheless I will remember My covenant with thee in the days of thy youth, and I will establish unto thee an everlasting covenant. Then thou shalt remember thy ways, and be ashamed, when thou shalt receive thy sisters, thine elder and thy younger: and I will give them unto thee for daughters, but not by …
Whitewashed Wall
There were a few times when I was a kid, that I got to use whitewash. Some may be asking, "What is whitewash?" I do not remember what the ingredients in it are, but I remember it was used by many people to put a cheap covering over a hard looking building, fence, or barn. …
Likeness of the Throne
"And above the firmament that was over their heads was the likeness of a throne, as the appearance of a sapphire stone: and upon the likeness of the throne was the likeness as the appearance of a Man above upon it. And I saw as the colour of amber, as the appearance of fire round …
Sins of the Prophets, and the Priests
"For the sins of her prophets, and the iniquities of her priests, that have shed the blood of the just in the midst of her, they have wandered as blind men in the streets, they have polluted themselves with blood, so that men could not touch their garments. They cried unto them, Depart ye; it …
A Throne in Captivity
"And it came to pass in the seven and thirtieth year of the captivity of Jehoiachin king of Judah, in the twelfth month, in the five and twentieth day of the month, that Evilmerodach king of Babylon in the first year of his reign lifted up the head of Jehoiachin king of Judah, and brought …
Being Reminded of GOD’S Promise
Much of the Scripture we will look at today have to do with the judgment upon Egypt. Judah was or had been depending on Egypt for their deliverance, and fight against Babylon; but they were in grave error and sin for doing so. Judah's help was in God. Because of their trust in Egypt God …
MY Words Shall Surely Stand
Prisoners from Judah have been taken to Babylon. Jeremiah and a remnant of people have been left in Jerusalem and have been told by God through Jeremiah that they are to stay in the land and till, and tend it, and that God will bless them, protecting them, and keeping them from further harm from …
Promise of Life
There are not too many promises in life that any of us can be truly assured of. We buy insurance for our cars, our homes, our health; even our lives so that our families can have a means of living better in the event of our deaths. Even with those insurances there can really be …
The Word from GOD
"When Jeremiah was entered into the dungeon, and into the cabins, and Jeremiah had remained there many days; then Zedekiah the king sent, and took him out: and the king asked him secretly in his house, and said, Is there any word from the LORD? And Jeremiah said, There is: for, said he, thou shalt …
Is Any Thing too Hard for GOD?
"Behold, I am the LORD, the God of all flesh: is there any thing too hard for Me?" Jeremiah 32:27 "Thus saith the LORD the maker thereof, the LORD that formed it, to establish it; the LORD is His name; call unto Me, and I will answer thee, and shew thee great and mighty things, …
