TOPIC: PRESERVED FOR A PURPOSE

TEXT: Jeremiah 11: 18 – 28 

18 And the LORD hath given me knowledge of it, and I know it: then thou shewedst me their doings. 19 But I was like a lamb or an ox that is brought to the slaughter; and I knew not that they had devised devices against me, saying, Let us destroy the tree with the fruit thereof, and let us cut him off from the land of the living, that his name may be no more remembered. 20 But, O LORD of hosts, that judgest righteously, that triest the reins and the heart, let me see thy vengeance on them: for unto thee have I revealed my cause.

21 Therefore thus saith the LORD of the men of Anathoth, that seek thy life, saying, Prophesy not in the name of the LORD, that thou die not by our hand: 22 Therefore thus saith the LORD of hosts, Behold, I will punish them: the young men shall die by the sword; their sons and their daughters shall die by famine: 23 And there shall be no remnant of them: for I will bring evil upon the men of Anathoth, even the year of their visitation.

INTRODUCTION TEXT

In the days of prophet Jeremiah, like in our days, there were false prophets and soothsayers who, under the guise of prophetic ministry, spoke primarily for their own interests. And worse still, because of the financial and material rewards those 'prophets' had, they became popular. Also, any other who spoke a different thing faced serious persecution and even the threat of death. That was the situation Jeremiah found himself in.
They planned to kill him because he spoke the truth, and never commercialised his prophetic ministry.

However, God frustrated their plans and preserved Jeremiah so that he would continue to be God's mouthpiece. There are dangers God has delivered you from. You must realise that there is a divine reason for God's deliverance: So that you may continue to be His representative on earth! As long as you are committed to divine purpose for your life, God will continue to preserve you for His own glory.

Prayer: Lord, please preserve me to serve you better, Amen.
