“First you steal, murder, commit, adultery, swear falsely, offer to Ba`al and go after other gods that you haven’t known.”
Jeremiah 7:9 CJB
Like the people of Israel were talking about the beauty of the temple and praising Adonai, the sad thing is they were also worshipping the false god Ba`al at the same time! The sadder thing is many so-called believers do the same today! We also need to check ourselves on what we watch, listen to and go to!
“Then you come and stand before Me in this house that bears My name and say, ‘We are saved’-so that you can go on doing these abominations!”
Jeremiah 7:10 CJB
This is one of the things that we need to be concerned with in our own lives is what we do and don’t do! God allowed Israel to go into captivity for these practices, don’t think for a moment that He will allow us to get away with it! What do we do? We take a good look in the mirror and repent, God is always faithful to forgive!
“Rather, what I did order them was this: ‘Pay attention to what I say. Then I will be your God, and you will be My people. In everything, live according to the way that I order you, so that things will go well for you.'”
Jeremiah 7:23 CJB
This is the one thing we can always bank on to have an easier life, is by doing what God lays out for us to do in His word, don’t add or subtract, just do!
So may your day be richly blessed by being in the Word of God so you’ll know what to do!
Shabbat Shalom!
