If you need a short word FROM the LORD, this is the perfect one: “I GOT YOU.“.

OH BARUCH, hired writer scribe for Jeremiah, was swept away in the turmoil of the day. The news writer and cameraman with a PRESS vest, the canary in the coal mine, and BARUCH. All God-gifted reporters.

Baruch was scared, cried out, and God specifically called him back, called to him through the prophet. God said: ‘I will give your life to you as a prize in all places, wherever you go.’ WOW!

God did give the best advice, which He tells us all the time: “Don’t seek great things for yourself!” Don’t get swept away with material flesh-serving lifestyles. Yes. God wants to bestow the goodness on us. And if God is doing correction to a situation (as He was to Israelites sneaking off to think they would prosper in Egypt rather than be captive to Babylon), then yes, let God protect you before He has to correct you. 

Let God protect you before He has to correct you.

Let God bless you and keep you.

Let God be the Glory.

Let God write YOUR (and HIS)STORY. 

AMEN

Assurance to Baruch -Jeremiah 45

The word that Jeremiah the prophet spoke to Baruch the son of Neriah, when he had written these words in a book at the instruction of Jeremiah, in the fourth year of Jehoiakim the son of Josiah, king of Judah, saying, “Thus says the Lord, the God of Israel, to you, O Baruch:  ‘You said, “Woe is me now! For the Lord has added grief to my sorrow. I fainted in my sighing, and I find no rest.” ’

“Thus you shall say to him, ‘Thus says the Lord: “Behold, what I have built I will break down, and what I have planted I will pluck up, that is, this whole land. And do you seek great things for yourself? Do not seek them; for behold, I will bring adversity on all flesh,” says the Lord. “But I will give your life to you as a prize in all places, wherever you go.” ’ ”
