Lots of you guys are pulling your hair out right now, seeing what's happening in Afghanistan, Australia, with Biden, and in our own nation.
I have to admit, especially where I'm reading these laments, I'm prone to chuckling a bit.
We were told about this. We're "in the know". Most of us understand that Biden is not Biden. Most of us are aware of the battle waging behind the scenes.
And yet it seems there are those that will sort of slip back into the old ways of thinking, complaining about Afghanistan, or something Biden did, and seemingly forgetting that it's all a show.
Just wanted to throw that out there. It's like we're awake, but still grumbling and still in bed, not yet facing the world bright-eyed and bushy-tailed.
Great collection! Thanks for sharing. God is great.
“Thus says the Lord: “Do not learn the way of the Gentiles; Do not be dismayed at the signs of heaven, For the Gentiles are dismayed at them. For the customs of the peoples are futile...” Jeremiah 10:2-3a NKJV
“Behold, I am the Lord, the God of all flesh. Is there anything too hard for Me?” Jeremiah 32:27 NKJV
“For I heard many mocking: “Fear on every side!” “Report,” they say, “and we will report it!” All my acquaintances watched for my stumbling, saying, “Perhaps he can be induced; Then we will prevail against him, And we will take our revenge on him.” But the Lord is with me as a mighty, awesome One. Therefore my persecutors will stumble, and will not prevail. They will be greatly ashamed, for they will not prosper. Their everlasting confusion will never be forgotten. But, O Lord of hosts, You who test the righteous, And see the mind and heart, Let me see Your vengeance on them; For I have pleaded my cause before You. Sing to the Lord! Praise the Lord! For He has delivered the life of the poor From the hand of evildoers.” Jeremiah 20:10-13 NKJV
“Thus says the Lord: “Cursed is the man who trusts in man And makes flesh his strength, Whose heart departs from the Lord. For he shall be like a shrub in the desert, And shall not see when good comes, But shall inhabit the parched places in the wilderness, In a salt land which is not inhabited. “Blessed is the man who trusts in the Lord, And whose hope is the Lord. For he shall be like a tree planted by the waters, Which spreads out its roots by the river, And will not fear when heat comes; But its leaf will be green, And will not be anxious in the year of drought, Nor will cease from yielding fruit.” Jeremiah 17:5-8 NKJV
