Above, the BLESSING MESSAGE is sent from GOD to HIS PEOPLE and some of them declared the messenger is worthy to be put to death for delivering the BLESSING MESSAGE from GOD....LORD GOD, may all today and in the days to come who face persecution, punishment, imprisonment, torture and or death for the sake of Christ Jesus and His Word stand boldly by THY POWER thereby magnify and glorify JEHOVAH, GOD. Standing in Christ Jesus we exchange the fear of man and the enemy in all of its expressions for the wisdom and knowledge to obey JEHOVAH, GOD. To GOD be all Glory, HONOR and PRAISE for ever and ever.
8 Now it came to pass, when Jeremiah had made an end of speaking all that the LORD had commanded him to speak unto all the people, that the 'priests' and the' prophets' and all the 'people' took him, saying, Thou shalt surely die. (WOW! WOW! WOW!)
As the Apostle Paul said to the disobedient Jews, so said Jeremiah to those who came up to the House of the LORD to worship; and so also does the Lord Jesus Christ say to His Churches everywhere: If ye will not hearken to me to walk in my law which I have set before you to hearken to the words of my servants the prophets whom I sent unto you...but ye HAVE NOT HEARKENED.." Judgment begins at us!
In verse 2 Jeremiah was commanded to tell the people everything that Jehovah God had commanded and not take away one word. We must make sure that we tell others everything when we preach and not just pick and choose only certain Scriptures to teach others.
I watched the video on this site last night, entitled, "The indestructible Bible." I have read also many years ago, Fox's Book of Martyrs. When I read about the persecutions and abuses, that the wicked have done to the Saints and Prophets, I think I have been very much sheltered; and it makes me search my heart and intensively set in order before God, that I be able to do like them when its time.
I find this comparative verse from one prophet to reference to another quite refreshing. Jesus Christ was born exactly where Micah was inspired to write down his birthplace, and as well as the significance of His arrival. Jeremiah 26 18 lends great light to what some refer to "minor " prophets. Eternity will reveal none of these were less servant of God than those we attach greater weight.
Jermiah 26:14 "As for me, behold, I am in your hand: do with me as seemeth good and meet unto you."
Lord God, may all today and in the days to come who face persecution,punishment,imprisonment,
torture and or death, for the sake of Christ Jesus and His Word, have the grace and courage of Jeremiah and Stephen to magnify and glorify the Lord God Almighty,in view of the enemy of their souls.
May we as believers in Christ Jesus gladly exchange the fear of man and the enemy in all of its expressions for the wisdom/knowledge of the Fear of the Lord. To God be the Glory for ever and ever.
