"Saying to a tree, ‘You are my father,’ And to a stone, ‘You gave birth to me.’ For they have turned their back to Me, and not their face. But in the time of their trouble They will say, ‘Arise and save us.’ But where are your gods that you have made for yourselves? Let them arise, If they can save you in the time of your trouble; For according to the number of your cities Are your gods, O Judah." (Jeremiah 2:27-28 NKJV)
"“Why will you plead with Me? You all have transgressed against Me,” says the LORD." (Jeremiah 2:29 NKJV)
"“Return, O backsliding children,” says the LORD; “for I am married to you. I will take you, one from a city and two from a family, and I will bring you to Zion. And I will give you shepherds according to My heart, who will feed you with knowledge and understanding."(Jeremiah 3:14-15 NKJV)
There are many out there that claim to be shepherds but are hirelings! They are false prophets that speak what you want to hear! Soft things that do not require examination of your heart nor repentance! They preach a different gospel, a sugar-coated message to satisfy your flesh! The spirit that moves among them is not He who convicts! The god they worship does not save!
Yet, God does have His men and women out there who will call you back! They are voices in the wilderness and their message is of old! It is one of repentance and is more desperate by the hour!
Return to Me!
Turn from your wicked ways!
Do not satisfy the lusts if the flesh!
Seek Me while I may be found!
Time is running out!
Will you listen? Will you turn?
Or will you continue on the broad path to destruction, you scoffers!
Even so - MARANATHA!
