ANGLICAN DAILY FOUNTAIN DEVOTIONAL FOR 25 FEBRUARY 2022
TOPIC: YOU ARE A WATCHMAN
TEXT: Jeremiah 6:22-30
Anglican Daily Fountain 25th February 2022 | STUDY
God was not happy with the people of Jerusalem (His people). They had rejected all His kind gestures towards them and blatantly worshipped idols like it didn’t matter, despite all of God’s ‘complaints and warnings!” Therefore, God was ‘pushed’ to rise against them, by allowing the enemy to invade them. Even at that, His kindness and mercy did not allow Him to leave or forsake them. He still sent and set Jeremiah as a watchman to keep warning them (v.27), perhaps, they would listen and be saved.
As God’s people in Nigeria and many places, have we not become like the people of Jerusalem? Are we not worshipping all kinds of idols under different guises and blatantly saying, despite His warnings, ‘God is so loving, He cannot destroy us?’ Even so, in His love and mercy, He has set you (His own), as a watchman – to warn the people, who are rebellious and stubborn, of the impending doom that awaits all who reject God and His Son, Jesus Christ, as Saviour and Lord. Are you crying out like Jeremiah (v.26), or are you at ease in Zion (Amos 6:1ff)? Remember Ezekiel 3:17-18
Prayer: Dear Father, may I not just remember daily that I am a watchman, but daily occupy at my post in word and in deed, in Jesus Name.
