Today's Scripture *November 5, 2009*

Jeremiah 11:14

“Pray no more for these people, Jeremiah. Do not weep or pray for them, for I will not listen to them when they cry out to me in distress.

At first glance this command is shocking: God tells Jeremiah not to pray for the people and says He wont listen to the people if they pray. A time comes when God must dispense justice. Sin brings its own bitter reward. If the people were unrepentant and continued in their sin, neither their prayers nor Jeremiah's would prevent God's judgement. Their only hope was repentance--sorrow for sin, turning from it, and Turing to God.

How can we keep praying for God's help if we haven't committed our lives to Him? God's blessings come when we are committed to Him, not when we selfishly hang on to our sinful ways.

Thank You for Your Word, Father God. We praise You and we acknowledge You as our Lord, our Savior, our Creator and our Sustainer.

Hear our prayers, Lord God, as we seek to do Your will in our lives. Forgive us our sins, and help us to turn away from the sin in our lives and turn our hopes, our eyes, and our hearts completely to You. In Jesus' Name, Amen..

Blessings!

April
