Today's Scripture *April 1st, 2010*
Lamentations 2: 9
Jerusalem’s gates have sunk into the ground.
He has smashed their locks and bars.
Her kings and princes have been exiled to distant lands;
Her law has ceased to exist.
Her prophets receive
No more visions from the Lord.
Four powerful symbols and sources of security were lost: the protection of the gates, the leadership of the kings and princes, the guidance of the law, and the vision of the prophets. With those four factors present, the people were lulled into a false sense of security and felt comfortable with their sins. But after each was removed, the people were confronted with the choice of repenting and returning to God or continuing on the path of suffering. Don't substitute symbols, even good ones, for the reality of a living, personal relationship with God Himself.
Heavenly Father, we praise You and give You thanks for Your Living Word to us today.
May we look to You above all others and above all else. May we walk in a personal relationship with You each day-never putting anything or anyone before You. In Jesus' Name we pray, Amen..
Have a blessed start to the new month!
In His service,
April
