“Because you trust in your deeds and your wealth, you too will be captured. Together with his priests and princes, K’mosh will go into exile.”

K’mosh or Chemosh was the leading god in Moab, another statue made by human hands with no power at all, just like every other false god!

We read in Jeremiah over and over how Adonai warns the people to repent and get it together, but still they wouldn’t listen!

What God is saying is: no matter where you are, as long as you are seeking Me (God) and walking with Me, you will be safe! We can be in a prison, poverty or any other calamity, if we are seeking God, not our own greatness, we will be safe! The question is: are you seeking your own glory or His Glory?

“Seek Adonai and His strength; always seek His presence.”
1 Chronicles 16:11 CJB

We all need to be careful of seeking our own greatness, trying to be #1! We need to be seeking God in all things and glorifying Him in everything!
