SPIRITUAL FOUNDATION!

Jeremiah 50:25,31,35,38,46 KJV
The LORD hath opened his armoury, and hath brought forth the weapons of his indignation: for this is the work of the Lord GOD of hosts in the land of the Chaldeans. [31] Behold, I am against thee, O thou most proud, saith the Lord GOD of hosts: for thy day is come, the time that I will visit thee. [35] A sword is upon the Chaldeans, saith the LORD, and upon the inhabitants of Babylon, and upon her princes, and upon her wise men. [38] A drought is upon her waters; and they shall be dried up: for it is the land of graven images, and they are mad upon their idols. [46] At the noise of the taking of Babylon the earth is moved, and the cry is heard among the nations.

OBSERVATION!

This scripture reveals the foolishness of man believing his actions will change our world or influence their surrounding environment.

Wake up people of the world and acknowledge who truly is in control of our environment. In the very first sentence, Yahewa identifies that our environment is part of his armory, which he has available whenever he desires to apply his wrath against sin.

Here, he pronounces a drought will dry up the waters Jeremiah 50:38. To broaden the scope of his control, I was led to Jeremiah 50:45 KJV
Therefore hear ye the counsel of the LORD, that he hath taken against Babylon; and his purposes, that he hath purposed against the land of the Chaldeans: Surely the least of the flock shall draw them out: surely he shall make their habitation desolate with them.

COMMENTARY!

It is Israel’s comfort in distress, that, though they are weak, their Redeemer is strong. This may be applied to believers who complain of the dominion of sin and corruption and of their own weakness and manifold infirmities.

Their Redeemer is able to keep what they commit to him; and sin shall not have dominion over them. He will give them that rest, which remains for the people of God. Also, here is Babylon’s sin and their punishment. The sins are idolatry and persecution. He that will not save his people in their sins, never will countenance the wickedness of his open enemies. The judgments of God for these sins will lay them waste. In the judgments denounced against prosperous Babylon, and the mercies promised to afflicted Israel, we learn to choose to suffer affliction with the people of God rather than to enjoy the pleasures of sin for a season

CLOSING OBSERVATION!

Many crave proof that Yahewa is in charge of all things

Exodus 7:17,19 KJV
Thus saith the LORD, In this thou shalt know that I am the LORD: behold, I will smite with the rod that is in mine hand upon the waters which are in the river, and they shall be turned to blood. [19] And the LORD spake unto Moses, Say unto Aaron, Take thy rod, and stretch out thine hand upon the waters of Egypt, upon their streams, upon their rivers, and upon their ponds, and upon all their pools of water, that they may become blood; and that there may be blood throughout all the land of Egypt, both in vessels of wood, and in vessels of stone.

Imagine this, hail stones weighing 73+ lbs falling from the sky along with fire.

Revelation 16:21 KJV
And there fell upon men a great hail out of heaven, every stone about the weight of a talent: and men blasphemed God because of the plague of the hail; for the plague thereof was exceeding great.

CLOSING COMMENTARY!

Here is a succession of terrible judgments of Providence; and there seems to be an allusion to several of the plagues of Egypt. The sins were alike, and so were the punishments. The vials refer to the seven trumpets, which represented the rise of antichrist; and the fall of the enemies of the church shall bear some resemblance to their rise. All things throughout their earth, their air, their sea, their rivers, their cities, all are condemned to ruin, all accursed for the wickedness of that people.

No wonder that angels, who witness or execute the Divine vengeance on the obstinate haters of God, of Christ, and of holiness, praise his justice and truth; and adore his awful judgments, when he brings upon cruel persecutors the tortures they made his saints and prophets suffer.

Robert a humble obedient servant to Yeshua and his Father in heaven Yahewa. And all of God’s children say Amen and Amen.
