Jer 29:11 For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, saith the LORD, thoughts of peace, and not of evil, to give you an expected end.
Jer 29:12 Then shall ye call upon me, and ye shall go and pray unto me, and I will hearken unto you.
Jer 29:13 And ye shall seek me, and find me, when ye shall search for me with all your heart.
Jer 29:14 And I will be found of you
These verses from Jeremiah are not simply speaking to us as individuals, if you read it in context you'll know what I mean. Yet, so much of our Lord's word is for our hearts to take in, to absorb as much needed comfort. The Word of God is such an amazing thing, it truly goes beyond full comprehension. This gift of His to us, this living, eternal life giving, most Holy Word.
Isa 28:10 For precept must be upon precept, precept upon precept; line upon line, line upon line; here a little, and there a little
Those words of Jeremiah, oh how wondrous to imagine hearing these words spoken to me! …
I know the thoughts I think towards you (Dorene), saith the LORD, thoughts of peace and not of evil to give you (Dorene) an expected end. Then shall ye (Dorene) call upon me, and ye(Dorene) shall go and pray unto me, and I will hearken unto you (Dorene). And ye(Dorene) shall seek me, and find me, when ye(Dorene) shall search for me with all (Dorene)your heart . And I will be found of you(Dorene).
He thinks peace not evil towards me! He wants to give me an expected end! When I call upon Him, I will find him, when I search for Him with ALL my heart! He WILL be found of me!
Oh, Lord God, I'm searching for You with ALL my heart! I long to be Yours! I know that expected end is eternity with YOU, it's life as the creature you created me to be, not the creature sin has tainted, the creature you intended me to be, a creature cleansed by the blood of the LORD JESUS CHRIST, a creature made new by YOU, only by you through nothing I do, but believe. I believe You LORD, you have the power, you have the love, you've shown that in the most holy sacrifice of Jesus the only begotten Son! He died for me! For me! And I simply have to believe I am His and the Holy Spirit will live in me convicting me of all that is evil in my life, all that would separate me from you if I allow. I cry out like Paul…
Rom 8:31 What shall we then say to these things? If God be for us, who can be against us?
Rom 8:32 He that spared not his own Son, but delivered him up for us all, how shall he not with him also freely give us all things?
Rom 8:33 Who shall lay any thing to the charge of God's elect? It is God that justifieth.
Rom 8:34 Who is he that condemneth? It is Christ that died, yea rather, that is risen again, who is even at the right hand of God, who also maketh intercession for us.
Rom 8:35 Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? shall tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword?
Rom 8:36 As it is written, For thy sake we are killed all the day long; we are accounted as sheep for the slaughter.
Rom 8:37 Nay, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him that loved us.
Rom 8:38 For I am persuaded, that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor powers, nor things present, nor things to come,
Rom 8:39 Nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature, shall be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.
What? Who? Shall separate us from the love of Christ? NOTHING! NO ONE! Nothing can separate us from the love of God which is in Christ Jesus our Lord! NOTHING!
I'm searching with all my heart, seeking to be known by You, seeking to find You and You will let me find you!
Please, Lord let me find you as I ever seek you.
Amo_8:11 Behold, the days come, saith the Lord GOD, that I will send a famine in the land, not a famine of bread, nor a thirst for water, but of hearing the words of the LORD
Let me hear Your words LORD, let me ever hear Your words! I need to hear Your words always!
Come soon, Lord Jesus, come soon!
