Jeremiah 29
4Thus saith the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel,
unto all that are carried away captives,
whom I have caused to be carried away from
Jerusalem unto Babylon;

5Build ye houses, and dwell in them;
and plant gardens, and eat the fruit of them;

6Take ye wives, and beget sons and daughters;
and take wives for your sons, and give your
daughters to husbands, that they may bear sons
and daughters; that ye may be increased there,
and not diminished.

7And seek the peace of the city whither I have
caused you to be carried away captives,
and pray unto the LORD for it:
for in the peace thereof shall ye have peace.

8For thus saith the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel;
Let not your prophets and your diviners, that be
in the midst of you, deceive you, neither hearken to
your dreams which ye cause to be dreamed.

9For they prophesy falsely unto you in my name:
I have not sent them, saith the LORD.

10For thus saith the LORD, that after seventy years
be accomplished at Babylon I will visit you, and perform
my good word toward you, in causing you to return
to this place.

11For 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.

12Then shall ye call upon me, and ye shall go and
pray unto me, and I will hearken unto you.

13And ye shall seek me, and find me,
when ye shall search for me with all your heart.

14And I will be found of you, saith the LORD:
and I will turn away your captivity, and I will gather
you from all the nations, and from all the places whither
I have driven you, saith the LORD; and I will bring you
again into the place whence I caused you to be
carried away captive.

it's been 5years, i remember vividly that night when
the Lord gave me this word.
After 4 years praying, asking, seeking, waiting upon God the
Lord answered one of my prayer specifically today.

verse 8-9 really bothered me over the years,
I’ve been telling God that it’s impossible that there
will be any deceiver or prophets that are not of God
in our midst. over the years i've been praying though
i cannot really comprehend, but there's urgency to pray.

I don’t feel like writing in details but I just want to
encourage my soul that MY GOD REIGNS! He is…
He is in control over this situation...
He's in charge over this matter...

This verse describe the condition of my soul

Jeremiah 4
19 Oh, my anguish, my anguish!
I writhe in pain.
Oh, the agony of my heart!
My heart pounds within me,
I cannot keep silent.
For I have heard the sound of the trumpet;
I have heard the battle cry.

I am seriously mad! Mad with this situation, mad to those who let themselves get easily influenced, mad at those who blasphemed the Name of GOD, mad at those who use the Name of God in vain without any fear or trembling! Mad at those who use the Name of GOD for their personal gain and for self-exaltation! Mad at those who deceived your people, the weak and ignorant! Lord you need to do something! You need to! I will not keep silent! I will not!

How can they stand before your people and declare "thus saith the Lord" when everything that they have said is from their flesh?! these phrase have been widely used "thus saith the Lord" not to edifies the church, to comfort or to encourage but instead using it for their personal gain.They blasphemed Your Name! aren't they aware about the consequences of it? don't they remember that God is GOD?!How can this be? Lord, have mercy upon this temple, hear my cry, have mercy upon their souls. Hear our prayer and when you hear, forgive. intervene LOrd! we are helpless, Holy Spirit we need you!


4 Circumcise yourselves to the LORD,
circumcise your hearts,
you men of Judah and people of Jerusalem,
or my wrath will break out and burn like fire
because of the evil you have done—
burn with no one to quench it.
