Memory Verse: Jeremiah 1:7. But the LORD said unto me, Say not, I am a child: for thou shalt go to all that I shall send thee, and whatsoever I command thee thou shalt speak.
Bible Reading: Jeremiah 1:8-10 KJV. Key Verse: v10.
Be not afraid of their faces: for I am with thee to deliver thee, saith the LORD. Then the LORD put forth his hand, and touched my mouth. And the LORD said unto me, Behold, I have put my words in thy mouth. See, I have this day set thee over the nations and over the kingdoms, to root out, and to pull down, and to destroy, and to throw down, to build, and to plant.
Jeremiah was a young man who grew up in a priestly family, a Benjamite who saw himself living in the city of Anathoth when the Lord began to give him a special assignment. At a very young age God began to speak to him, to help him discover divine purpose in order to pursue it. But Jeremiah could not see himself having what it takes to be a voice of God in his generation. He felt that he was too young for such important assignment of telling men the mind of God. The more he tried to tender excuses before the Lord, the more the Lord gave him assurances of his backing on the job. “God’s Message began to come to him during the thirteenth year that Josiah son of Amos reigned over Judah. It continued to come to him during the time Jehoiakim son of Josiah reigned over Judah. And it continued to come to him clear down to the fifth month of the eleventh year of the reign of Zedekiah son of Josiah over Judah, the year that Jerusalem was taken into exile.”Jeremiah 1:2-3 MSG.
“Therefore said he unto them, The harvest truly is great, but the labourers are few: pray ye therefore the Lord of the harvest, that he would send forth labourers into his harvest. Go your ways: behold, I send you forth as lambs among wolves. Carry neither purse, nor scrip, nor shoes: and salute no man by the way. And into whatsoever house ye enter, first say, Peace be to this house.” Luke 10:2-5. As we are in the last days, there’s much work that needs to be done. God is still calling men into different kinds of assignments. Many shall be called to operate within existing ministries to strengthen them. There are some that God will call to start a new work. We must therefore be properly guided to avoid missing out of God’s plan and running on our own, as many are doing because of selfish greed.
On a final note, if God is giving you any assignment, he will also give you what it takes to carry it out, as you patiently follow his instructions. Don’t give God excuses, but trust him to keep his part of the covenant. “Take a good look, friends, at who you were when you got called into this life. I don’t see many of “the brightest and the best” among you, not many influential, not many from high-society families. Isn’t it obvious that God deliberately chose men and women that the culture overlooks and exploits and abuses, chose these “nobodies” to expose the hollow pretensions of the “somebodies”? That makes it quite clear that none of you can get by with blowing your own horn before God.” 1 Corinthians 1:26-29 MSG
Prayer :Thank you Father God for counting me worthy to be called your own because of Jesus Christ. From today open my eyes to understand what you want me to do for you in my lifetime. Help me walk in your plan for my life, so that I don’t miss my reward on the last day in Jesus blessed name…. Amen 🙏🏿.
Yearly Bible Reading : Titus 3:1-11.
