CITY BUILDING
Today’s Scriptures
19 The towns of the Negev will close their gates,
and no one will be able to open them.
The people of Judah will be taken away as captives.
All will be carried into exile.
20 Open up your eyes and see
the armies marching down from the north!
Where is your flock—
your beautiful flock—
that he gave you to care for?
Jeremiah 13:19-20 (NLT)
Today's TO DO
Honor God by choosing to be humble.
God blesses the work of our hands. Unfortunately, as the fruits of our labor increase, there is a tendency to take all the credit for the net worth we build. Forgetting that Our Heavenly Father is The Source of every good thing is the first indicator that pride is setting in. For the people of Judah, the cities they had built were about to fall to shambles as they were on the verge of an invasion. Jeremiah delivered the news that because of their pride, they were about to be carried into exile by their former allies.
Therefore: Honor The Lord by choosing a life of gratitude and humility. Remember, just because you build a city, it does not mean you get to keep it! It is God’s Grace and Mercy that holds everything together and keeps your enemies at bay. The Father blesses us with the capacity to generate wealth, He breathes health into our bodies and protects our possessions. Let 2025 be the year that you walk with ordered perspective.
