A Fire in My Bones

“Then I said, I will not make mention of him, nor speak any more in his name. But his word was in mine heart as a burning fire shut up in my bones, and I was weary with forbearing, and I could not stay.” Jeremiah 20:9

Jeremiah had been placed in prison. He had been preaching for a long time, but the people were not heeding his message. He told them that they needed to put away their idols and serve the Lord. He warned them that destruction and defeat were coming if they did not turn back to the Lord. The more Jeremiah preached, the more it seemed that the people were determined to do wrong. Jeremiah had grown weary of preaching to people who were not listening and were not willing to change. Jeremiah decided that he was going to quit preaching. He no longer wanted to deliver God’s message to the Israelites because of their hard hearts. Days went by, and Jeremiah did not preach. He still had God’s message in his heart. He knew that destruction was coming and that the people needed to be warned. He thought every day about God’s Word. When He thought about it, his heart was stirred. He felt like there was a fire in his bones. The burning in his heart increased until he could no longer keep himself from sharing God’s message with the people around him. God’s Word is just as powerful and just as important today as it was in Jeremiah’s day. If we will spend time in His Word every day and meditate on what we have read throughout the day, we will have something in our hearts that we will have to share with others.

Have A Blessed Day!

The Potter’s House

“Arise, and go down to the potter’s house, and there I will cause thee to hear my words. Then I went down to the potter’s house, and, behold, he wrought a work on the wheels. And the vessel that he made of clay was marred in the hand of the potter: so he made it again another vessel, as seemed good to the potter to make it.” Jeremiah 18:2-4

God sent Jeremiah to the potter’s house because he wanted Jeremiah to give him an illustration of what He was planning to do with the people of Israel. As the potter worked with the clay, there was a flaw in the clay that ruined the vessel he intended to make. The potter did not throw away that particular lump of clay. Instead, he started over. God wanted Jeremiah to go to the people and preach to them that they were like the clay in His hands. He was free to exercise ownership and control over their lives. He had a vision for what He wanted them to become. He had a plan that would enable Him to make them into what He wanted them to be. He had a purpose that He wanted them to fulfill. He was patient in His approach, so that when they refused to become what He envisioned, He was willing to start over with a new vision and a new purpose because of the investment that He had made in them up to that point. Jeremiah’s message was intended specifically for Israel, but the principles certainly apply to God’s people today. We belong to God. He has a plan for our lives and a purpose for us to fulfill. We must be pliable in His hands and allow Him to work on us and make us into what He wants us to be.

Have A Blessed Day!

A Workman

“Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.” II Timothy 2:15

Modern construction can be a very complicated process. Workers are involved in drawing plans, obtaining permits, preparing the building site, pouring concrete, framing walls, pulling wires, installing plumbing, etc. Though some of the workers involved may have a general understanding of every phase of the building process, it would be extremely rare to find a person who was an expert in every trade. An expert is a workman who always knows how to handle every situation. He would never be embarrassed because he did not know the answer to a particular problem. Some trades are regulated so that a worker must be licensed or certified in order to work in that trade. As Christians, we are a part of a very specialized building process. There is a stringent approval process for every laborer, and each one is approved by God Himself. He is looking for workers who never need to be ashamed because they do not know the answer to a particular question. Our manual is the Bible. God wants us to know what is in His Word and understand how to apply it to the questions that arise in our daily lives. We are part of the crew that is constructing His church, and we have the responsibility to know how to use His Word to reach the lost and encourage other believers. The more we learn about the Bible, the more confident we will be in using it to help other people.

Have A Blessed Day!

The Spirit of Fear

“For God hath not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind.” II Timothy 1:7

Fear is an unavoidable part of the human experience. In some ways fear actually helps us in life. The anticipation of a negative outcome can help us avoid mistakes and poor choices. You don’t walk out in front of an oncoming truck because you are afraid of being run over. This kind of fear is actually healthy. Each time we make good decisions because of a clear understanding of consequences it prolongs our lives and helps us to enjoy a happier existence. However, most of the things that we are afraid of hold us back and keep us from achieving our goals and fulfilling God’s purpose in our lives. Any time fear paralyzes us and prevents us from performing a task that God has given us to do, we fail to realize our full potential and we leave something undone that could have made a difference for someone else. God does not give us those kinds of fears. They come from within, and the flames of doubt and fear are fanned by the devil. How can we fight against our fears? Ephesians 6:16 says, “Above all, taking the shield of faith, wherewith ye shall be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked.” Faith is the opposite of fear. Our faith must be in God. God gives us the spirit of power, the spirit of love, and a sound mind. Within the framework of a sound mind, we can exercise faith in an omnipotent God Who gives us the power to love others and serve Him. Through faith in God, we can quench the spirit of fear and overcome the attacks of the evil one.

Have A Blessed Day!

Great Gain

“But godliness with contentment is great gain. For we brought nothing into this world, and it is certain we can carry nothing out. And having food and raiment let us be therewith content.” I Timothy 6:6-8

In terms of acquiring possessions and making money, gain is quite an attractive concept. Most people go through life constantly wanting more, and many find that temporal possessions never completely satisfy. Interestingly enough, God uses the idea of gain to help us understand spiritual truths. In the book of Proverbs, wisdom is likened unto great treasure. We are admonished to seek after it and to find it at all costs. Jesus taught His disciples to lay up treasure in heaven. In an eternal sense, the only things in life that we really get to keep are the things that we give away. The gain that is the focus in the passage above is a spiritual one, but it is felt in the physical world in a very real sense. The first ingredient we must add is godliness. Jesus said, “Seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you” (Matthew 6:33). If we want this gain, we must put God first. The second component is contentment. Contentment is an attitude that we can decide to adopt whenever we choose. Wealth may be having what you want, but contentment is wanting what you have. Wealth can never satisfy because it leaves us wanting more, but contentment always satisfies because it fills us with gratitude for God’s blessings in our lives. Godliness with contentment is great gain!

Have A Blessed Day!
