We
thank You, Lord, that Jeremiah kept on speaking to people who had given
up on worshipping You (Jeremiah 22:9). His message was clear: ‘O land,
land, land, hear the Word of the Lord?’ (Jeremiah 22:29). Lord, You're
speaking Your Word to us. Are we listening? You're looking for people
who will listen to You. You want us to pay attention to Your Word. Your
Word is like ‘the sound of a trumpet.’ It demands our attention. Many
people say, ‘We will not listen.’ Your Word shows us ‘the good way’ and
calls us to ‘walk in it.’ Many people say, ‘We will not walk in it.'
What about us, Lord? What do we say to You? What is our response to Your
Word? We thank You, Lord, for Your Word of warning: ‘I am bringing
disaster on this people... because they have not listened to My Word.’
May we not bring this judgment on ourselves. Help us to listen to Your
Word and walk in Your way (Jeremiah 6:16-19).
