Jeremiah 30 - Praying God's Word

 

Please read Jeremiah 30.

Meditate on verse 22.

 

You shall be My people, and I will be your God.

 

God described a hopeless situation for Israel.  Her wound was incurable, and her injury was serious because her iniquity was great and her sins numerous (vs. 12, 15).  Israel was desperately sick, and a cure was impossible, yet God said in verse 17, “I will restore you to health, and I will heal you of your wounds.”

Imagine a doctor telling you that you are going to die and then saying, “I will restore you to health.”  That is what the LORD told Israel.

And that is what the LORD tells you.  Without Christ, you are terminal, deadly sick in sin.  But God, in His love and compassion, died for you, so you don’t have to die from sin sickness.  Jesus is the cure for the hopeless situation caused by sin.  Have you let Him heal you?

Pray Jeremiah 30:12-13, 15, 17, and 22 over those for whom you stand guard as a faithful, prayerful watchman (Isaiah 62:6-7), who need to be spiritually healed by the LORD.

 

“LORD, _________ have an incurable wound;

their injury is serious. 

They need You to plead their cause.

They need healing and recovery

 because their iniquity is great,

and their sins are numerous.

LORD, restore them to health; heal their wounds.

Let them be Your people and You their God.

For the sake of Your name, Jesus~”
