Jeremiah 16:1-21
‘O
Lord, my Strength and my Stronghold, my Refuge in the day of trouble,
to You the nations will come from the ends of the earth… They will know
that My Name is the Lord’ (Jeremiah 16:19,21). Give us, Lord, a faith
that is personal – The Lord is my Strength, my Stronghold, my Refuge.
Teach us that our faith must not be private. It is not to be kept to
ourselves. There is to be no ‘us and them’ attitude. We are not to have a
‘we are the people’ attitude. The Gospel is for the nations. Help
us not to say, ‘I’m okay. That’s all that matters.’ The Gospel is to be
taken to the ends of the earth. Help us to reach out to others –
to share the Gospel with the people we meet. Help us, Lord, to
tell people what You have done for us. Help us to tell them what You can
do for them. May we let them know how much You love them. May they come
to know You, Lord - our God, can be their God too.
