Then the word of the Lord came to Jeremiah, saying, Behold, I am the Lord, the God of all flesh. Is there anything too hard for Me? Jeremiah 32:26 NKJV
 
Yes, I will rejoice over them to do them good, And I will assuredly plant them in this land, with all My heart and with all My soul. Jeremiah 32:41 NKJV
 
God judged the nation of Israel. The Lord gave them into the hands of the Chaldeans.  God spoke through Jeremiah the prophet. He would send the King and many of the people into captivity in Babylon. 
 
God spoke to Jeremiah. He instructed Jeremiah to buy property in the city. Jeremiah did not understand.
 
Why would God tell Jeremiah to by property in a city that would be conquered by a powerful enemy? The Chaldeans would not honor Jeremiah’s property rights. Jeremiah prayed for understanding. 
 
God told Jeremiah He would gather His people together and bring them back into the land the Lord gave them. The people of God would dwell in safety again. God said, “They shall be My people, and I will be their God.” 
 
What does this mean to us today?
 
God is the same yesterday, today, and tomorrow. Nothing was impossible for the Lord in that day. Nothing is impossible for Him today.
 
God’s greatest desire is to bless us. Jesus wants to show us how much He loves us today. He desires our love and devotion today. He desires our worship. God inhabits the praises of His people. Worship brings us into God’s presence today! 
 
The God of all creation desires to live in an intimate relationship with you today! 
 
God was jealous for the children of Israel in biblical times. He was looking to bless His people. His desire was to draw them back into His favor.
 
God judged and punished the people of Israel many times. He allowed them to suffer hardship and trial. It was always for the purpose of refining them. The Lord was molding and shaping Israel into the people He created them to be.
 
God is jealous for you today! He is looking for ways to bring you back into His favor today!
 
Jesus will allow you to suffer hardship and trial. It is for the purpose of refining you. The Lord wants to mold you and shaping you into the person He created you to be!
 
Jesus is looking for ways to bless you. If you trust the Lord with your life today Jesus will rejoice over you with all His heart and soul throughout eternity!

    ​Jesus can use you to shake the foundations of the prison and set people free!
     
    Now it happened, as we went to prayer, that a certain slave girl possessed with a spirit of divination met us, who brought her masters much profit by fortune telling. This girl followed Paul and us, and cried out, saying, “These men are servants of the Most High God, who proclaim to us the way of salvation.” And this she did for many days. But Paul, greatly annoyed, turned and said to the spirit, I command you in the name of Jesus Christ to come out of her. And he came out that very hour. Acts 16:16-18 NKJV
     
    The slave girl was speaking the truth. She was possessed by an evil spirit. The evil spirit was drawing people away from Christ! 
     
    This attack came as God’s servants went to prayer. The enemy of our souls attacks when we step out in faith. Satan seeks to distract us. He wants us to focus our attention on things other than Jesus.
     
    The devil perverts the truth. He uses it against us. No one can serve two masters. This girl was speaking the truth about Paul and his companions while practicing witchcraft. When people claim to speak for God we must consider how they live.
     
    The girl followed the disciples for several days before they cast the demon out of her. It is important for us to wait on the Lord before stepping out in faith. The bible tells us Paul was greatly annoyed by this girl. Paul was not fearful. The Lord was with Him! 
     
    Paul and Silas were put in jail. The owners of the slave girl were angry at the loss of income when the demon was cast out of her. While Paul and Silas were in jail they shared the gospel with the jailer. His entire household was saved. 
     
    God uses Satan’s attacks for His glory and our salvation!
                       
    Satan is a real being. He takes people captive to do his will. There really are demons who seek to destroy God’s people and bring destruction to our world.
     
    We have nothing to fear from the devil or his demons when we live according to God’s will. We have nothing to fear from anyone or anything when we step out in faith to serve Jesus! 
     
    Jesus wants us to fear Him and Him alone. He wants us to know His power and authority are unequaled in all of creation.
     
    God wants you share the gospel of Jesus Christ with the people in your life. Jesus wants you to walk in great boldness because He is with you everywhere you go!
     
    Jesus can use you to shake the foundations of the prison and set people free!
