“For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, saith the LORD, thoughts of peace, and not of evil, to give you an expected end.” - Jeremiah 29:11
I love this verse and it comes to my mind often.
Sometimes it truly amazes me that God has chosen to love me, and bless me and there is really little I need to do but follow by faith and lean on Him.
“…as the duty of every day required” - Ezra 3.4
The above says, “as the duty of every day required…”. The word “duty” there has a very long definition! It basically means anything and everything that might possibly need doing! “Duty”.
It is the sort of word that has been in famous speeches I think. “Duty”.
“...ye shall blow an alarm...” Numbers 10.9
Do you have an alarm on your house?
We don’t. We do have a couple of fire alarms, but not an alarm like the above verse is talking about. Mainly because we live in a very quiet neighbourhood and a fairly peaceful country. If things changed we could get an alarm... on our physical house. But what about our spiritual houses?
“And the LORD opened the eyes of the young man...”
2 Kings 6.17
Do you ever try and try... and try - to help someone see something that they just can’t seem to see?
Of course we do - if we have anything to do with serving the Lord – just like the situation with Elisha here.
We must understand the part we play in the lives of people by simple PRAYER. (Because God does hear it!)
