Unfaithful

Jeremiah 3:19-20

New International Version (NIV)

“ ¹⁹ “I myself said,

   “‘How gladly would I treat you like my children
   and give you a pleasant land,
   the most beautiful inheritance of any nation.’
I thought you would call me ‘Father’
   and not turn away from following me.
²⁰ But like a woman unfaithful to her husband,
   so you, Israel, have been unfaithful to me,”
            declares the LORD.”

In this scripture the Lord is referring to Israel, however we all can be like Israel.

The same goes for us, if we would call on the father, how much He would do for us and give us the best than any could ever give.

We as gentiles, tend to forget that just like Israel, we to can commit the same sins and distance us from the Lord our God. Like Israel, we can get into error and not trust God and know that we need Jesus and the Holy Spirit to guide us.

In many ways we have been unfaithful to the Lord, from when we were purely in the world, when we have doubted God’s abilities to turn your situations around, or when we have dabbled with practices and ideologies that were contrary to His teachings. 

When we entertain practices like yoga and a “zen” lifestyle, or getting into the whole “Mother Earth” mentality we get misguided and out of line with what God tells us to.

God has sooooooooo much to give us and it’s up to us to line up with His word and open ourselves up to receive the blessings that God has for us. These blessings are not just for us to have things, but to be able to be a blessing for others and strengthening your spirit man.

Do not be unfaithful to the Lord and stick to the truth, God’s word and allow the Holy Spirit to have his perfect will in you and through you so that you may remain as heirs to the riches and glory in Christ Jesus.
