Just Fending Off Or Stopping Destruction?

Siege JerusalemAs God gives His mandate to Jeremiah, His mouthpiece to the people, missiles are being launched from siege machines. The pounding, hammering sounds of destruction are in the air. The people seem to have a mentality for retreat and survival in the present, not a mentality for the future and future generations. There is no mentality for gain, increase or growth but rather for getting relief from the present situation whatever price has to be paid. While they are taking structures apart to put up defenses for the present, the coming generation is surely wondering what will remain for their future and adopting attitudes that are nonproductive for future hope. There is no attempt to actually stop destruction, just attempts to try and fend off some of it.

May Your Friend List Grow

friends
May the list of people who call you friend grow and may you and your friends form alliances that edify others and may your friendships become contagious because of your care for one another and may you, together, forward the purposes of our Lord.

“By yourself you’re unprotected. With a friend you can face the worst. Can you round up a third? A three-stranded rope isn’t easily snapped.” (Eccl.4:12, Msg)

No Place To Stop

There is no time or place for the present generation to stop preparations for the future—not even under duress. Simon Purvis tells of the ancient Romans who planted trees for structures and projects that future generations would build. They would plant a certain tree knowing that it would require many years before it could be harvested. They planted a variety of trees that trees childrenwould mature at various times and have various wood-densities to meet the needs of the future. The general mindset of the present generation appears to be to use up whatever we can (money, resources, people) to get through our lifetime. Watching an ad on TV recently, a picture of an infant came across the screen. The message read, “The best time to prepare for his future is 100 years before he is born.” In late winter, people begin preparing for a spring garden but they cease that preparation when the shoots begin to come up. They prepare a house for painting by scraping and priming but they stop the preparation when they begin to put on the paint. There is, however, never a point at which we cease preparing for future generations no matter what philosophical or eschatological paradigm is favored at this point of history. David prepared for Solomon and it is recorded that Solomon sat on the throne of David his father, and his kingdom was firmly established. (1Ki 2:12) In comparison, Saul just used the present generation (1Sam.8:11-17). In those seven verses, the phrase “he will take” is used six times. (Also Prov.6:6-8; 13:22) It was David’s throne that was promised to last for generations. Is it any wonder that Saul’s did not?

Your Blood Pressure

May your blood pressure be normal and may you never have to worry about it again.

“Be angry, and do not sin.  Meditate within your heart on your bed, and be still.” (Ps.4:4, NKJV) 

“I will both lie down in peace, and sleep;…” (Ps.4:8, KKJV)

Under Siege

When God spoke to Jeremiah, conditions were not escalating; they were already in full swing. Jerusalem was under attack. It was not hit and run, it was a siege. To say that Jerusalem was siege_Jerusalemunder siege was like saying the nation of Israel was under siege. A siege was set up with intent to stay until defeat and destruction of the enemy was complete. The Chaldeans were destroying the outer perimeter of Jerusalem and those whose houses were being destroyed on the outer perimeter were falling back to the inner city.  In the inner city, they were tearing apart their houses to build defenses. The Chaldeans had set up siege machines and battering rams. The enemy was so intent on destroying Jerusalem that they had begun using hammers and axes on the houses in order to tear them completely down and to render them completely useless. The word “house” here in Jer.33:4 refers to a literal house, but also to generations, families. The intent and result was that the present generation was being devastated and disheartened so that future generations would only have one choice: servitude.

Touch Of Healing

hand to hand

 

As the people of God assemble today, may they give and receive the touch of healing. May pain cease and desist. May disease stop its damaging progress and cease. May each one feel the touch of the Master’s Hand.

“So He touched her hand, and the fever left her . . . ”(Matt.8:15, NKJV)
