Jeremiah 16:1-3, 19-21
1:
Then
the word of the Lord came to me:
2:
“You must not marry and have sons or daughters in this place.”
3:
For this is what the Lord says about the sons and daughters born in this land
and about the women who are their mothers and the men who are their fathers:
19:
Lord, my strength and my fortress, my refuge in time of distress, to you the
nations will come from the ends of the earth and say, “Our ancestors possessed
nothing but false gods, worthless idols that did them no good.
20:
Do people make their own gods? Yes, but they are not gods!”
21:
“Therefore I will teach them— this time I will teach them my power and might.
Then they will know that my name is the Lord.
(New
International Version Holy Bible)
TOPIC:
ARE YOU WORSHIPPING THE TRUE GOD?
A
song says, "All other gods, they are the works of men, You are the only
God, there is none like You."
Jeremiah
declares that the Lord is his strength and fortress, his refuge in the day of
trouble. Jeremiah's submission is a pointer to the fact that the Almighty God
is worthy to be worshipped. He condemned worshipping gods made with human hands
because they are not real but worthless idols.
What
will God say about people who claim to be Christ's followers but still worship
one god or the other? Do you partake in the cultural festivals of your area
where people worship other gods?
QUESTION:
Are you a true worshipper of the one and only true God?
PRAYER:
My mind is made up to worship the one and only true God - the Almighty God.
Please help me, Oh Lord, to maintain this positive spirit. Amen.
Remain
Blessed
