Jeremiah 34:17
“Therefore thus saith the Lord; Ye have not hearkened unto me, in proclaiming liberty, every one to his brother, and every man to his neighbour: behold, I proclaim a liberty for you, saith the Lord, to the sword, to the pestilence, and to the famine; and I will make you to be removed into all the kingdoms of the earth.”
Like God's people in the kingdom of Judah in the day of the Prophet Jeremiah, we see God's people today seeking a liberty not given by God. A liberty to sin, a liberty to follow false gods, a liberty to follow the lust of the flesh and the lust of the eyes and the pride of life. Are we any better than they? Has God promised not to chastise His own in our day? Just like in Jeremiah's day, today there is a remnant who are following the Lord in truth and who have the true liberty promised by our Heavenly Father.
Who/what do you follow today? Have you hearkened unto the Word of God and are proclaiming the liberty He promised or are you following the false liberty promised by man? “Seek ye first the kingdom of God.”
Praise ye the Lord!!!
