Jeremiah 7 (c)

The book of Jeremiah – chapter by chapter and verse by verse

Jeremiah 7:8-11 KJV (4 verses)

8 Behold, ye trust in lying words, that cannot profit.

There is no way you will get ahead by trusting in lying words – God will make sure of it.

You’re supposed to have God’s word as your ministry.

9 Will ye steal, murder, and commit adultery, and swear falsely, and burn incense unto Baal, and walk after other gods whom ye know not;

10 And come and stand before me in this house, which is called by my name, and say, We are delivered to do all these abominations?

We can’t think that our sins are okay, and try to tell God we are delivered anyway.

We must repent. Not always easy. But, we need to get tough.

11 Is this house, which is called by my name, become a den of robbers in your eyes? Behold, even I have seen it, saith the LORD.

False worship, and God sees it. He hates it. We can change and do the right things. Again, it’s not always easy. BUT… repentance and endurance makes us strong… and better people. The kind of people God wants in His ministry. J
