WORD DIARY: SUNDAY AUGUST 30, 2026

 

#Bound to God!..

Jer. 13:10 These wicked people, who refuse to listen to my words, who follow the stubbornness of their hearts and go after other gods to serve and worship them, will be like this belt—completely useless!

#Don’t be stubborn!

Jer. 13:11 For as a belt is bound around the waist, so I bound all the people of Israel and all the people of Judah to me,’ declares the Lord, ‘to be my people for my renown and praise and honor. But they have not listened.’

#Bound to God!

Jer. 13:12-13 “Say to them: ‘This is what the Lord, the God of Israel, says: Every wineskin should be filled with wine.’ And if they say to you, ‘Don’t we know that every wineskin should be filled with wine?’ then tell them, ‘This is what the Lord says: I am going to fill with drunkenness all who live in this land, including the kings who sit on David’s throne, the priests, the prophets and all those living in Jerusalem.

#Beware of drunkenness!

Jer. 13:14 I will smash them one against the other, parents and children alike, declares the Lord. I will allow no pity or mercy or compassion to keep me from destroying them.’”

Let us pray: Father God, let your mercy prevail over judgment in the name of Jesus

#Life questions and meditation:

1. Would you rather be bound to God?

2. Would you rather be bound to idols?

Postscript

Ecclesiastes 7:29 This only have I found: God made mankind upright, but men have gone in search of many schemes.

God, more than earthly manufacturers, created a perfect mankind; and like every manufacturer, He gave the Bible as the manual. As we brush our teeth and eat every day, so much do we need to look into that manual for daily living and thereby prevent a malfunction inherent in seeking our many devices.

These verses and the accompanying nuggets are meant to start you out every day. But you need a personal relationship with God and the Lord Jesus Christ. It will help to contact a Bible believing church near you.

NEW BEGINNING! – PART 5 - CONCLUSION!.. (ANOINTING SERVICE)

 

"Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; old things have passed away; behold, all things have become new." — 2 Corinthians 5:17 (NKJV)

One of the expressions of new things is that God uses them to offer us a new beginning. A new beginning is one of God's greatest gifts to humanity. It is His gracious invitation to leave behind the failures of yesterday and embrace the hope of tomorrow. It is the assurance that no matter how far we have fallen, how many mistakes we have made, or how impossible our circumstances appear, God is able to write a new chapter in our lives. The gospel itself is the greatest story of a new beginning. Through the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ, sinners are forgiven, hearts are transformed, and lives are recreated by the power of the Holy Spirit.

The Apostle Paul captures this truth in our anchor Scripture, 2 Corinthians 5:17, where he declares that anyone who is in Christ is a new creation. This is not merely an improvement of the old life or an attempt at self-reformation. It is a complete transformation brought about by the saving work of Christ. The old identity dominated by sin, guilt, shame, and spiritual death has passed away, and a new life filled with God's grace, purpose, and righteousness has begun. This new beginning is available to every person who places their faith in Jesus Christ.

Throughout the Bible, we see remarkable examples of people whom God gave fresh starts. Noah entered a cleansed world after the flood. Abraham began a new journey at God's command. Moses received a new assignment after years in the wilderness. Ruth moved from loss to divine purpose. David rose from shepherd to king, despite his humble beginnings. Peter was restored after denying Christ, and Saul the persecutor became Paul the apostle through the transforming power of God's grace. Their stories remind us that our past does not have to determine our future when God is at work.

Our five-part series for the month of August, “New Beginning” will help us establish that every genuine new beginning starts with Christ and continues as we surrender every area of our lives to Him. Together we will learn how to leave the past behind, experience God's restoring power, renew our minds through His Word, and walk boldly into the new season He has prepared for us. Whether you are seeking spiritual renewal, healing from past failures, restoration in your family, breakthrough in your career, or a deeper relationship with God, this series will reveal timeless biblical principles that lead to lasting transformation. Join us this Sunday, on-line or in person, as we explore the theme and conclude the series.

#Understand divine instructions!..

Jer. 13:13-2 This is what the Lord said to me: “Go and buy a linen belt and put it around your waist, but do not let it touch water.” So I bought a belt, as the Lord directed, and put it around my waist.

#Obey divine instructions!

Jer. 13:3-5 Then the word of the Lord came to me a second time: “Take the belt you bought and are wearing around your waist, and go now to Perath and hide it there in a crevice in the rocks.” So I went and hid it at Perath, as the Lord told me.

#Additional divine instructions!

Jer. 13:6-7 Many days later the Lord said to me, “Go now to Perath and get the belt I told you to hide there.” So I went to Perath and dug up the belt and took it from the place where I had hidden it, but now it was ruined and completely useless.

#Understand divine instructions!

Jer. 13:8-9 Then the word of the Lord came to me: “This is what the Lord says: ‘In the same way I will ruin the pride of Judah and the great pride of Jerusalem.

Let us pray: Father God, we receive the grace to reject every spirit of pride in the name of Jesus

#Compassion from God!..

Jer. 12:14 This is what the Lord says: “As for all my wicked neighbors who seize the inheritance I gave my people Israel, I will uproot them from their lands and I will uproot the people of Judah from among them.

#Separation from wickedness!

Jer. 12:15 But after I uproot them, I will again have compassion and will bring each of them back to their own inheritance and their own country.

#Compassion from God!

Jer. 12:16 And if they learn well the ways of my people and swear by my name, saying, ‘As surely as the Lord lives’—even as they once taught my people to swear by Baal—then they will be established among my people.

WORD DIARY: THURSDAY AUGUST 27, 2026

 

#Safety with God!..

Jer. 12:7-8 “I will forsake my house, abandon my inheritance; I will give the one I love     into the hands of her enemies. My inheritance has become to me like a lion in the forest. She roars at me; therefore I hate her.

#Reconcile with God!

Jer. 12:9 Has not my inheritance become to me like a speckled bird of prey that other birds of prey surround and attack? Go and gather all the wild beasts; bring them to devour.

#Safety with God!

Jer. 12:10-11 Many shepherds will ruin my vineyard and trample down my field; they will turn my pleasant field into a desolate wasteland. It will be made a wasteland, parched and desolate before me; the whole land will be laid waste because there is no one who cares.

#Security with God!

Jer. 12:12-13 Over all the barren heights in the desert destroyers will swarm, for the sword of the Lord will devour from one end of the land to the other; no one will be safe. They will sow wheat but reap thorns; they will wear themselves out but gain nothing. They will bear the shame of their harvest because of the Lord’s fierce anger.”

Let us pray: Father God, have mercy and deliver us from destruction in the name of Jesus

#Life questions and meditation:

1. Would you rather desire peace with God?

WORD DIARY: WEDNESDAY AUGUST 26, 2026

 

#Divine testing!..

Jer. 11:21-23 Therefore this is what the Lord says about the people of Anathoth who are threatening to kill you, saying, “Do not prophesy in the name of the Lord or you will die by our hands”— therefore this is what the Lord Almighty says: “I will punish them. Their young men will die by the sword, their sons and daughters by famine. Not even a remnant will be left to them, because I will bring disaster on the people of Anathoth in the year of their punishment.”

#Divine judgment!

Jer. 12:1-2 You are always righteous, Lord, when I bring a case before you. Yet I would speak with you about your justice: Why does the way of the wicked prosper? Why do all the faithless live at ease? You have planted them, and they have taken root; they grow and bear fruit. You are always on their lips but far from their hearts.

#Divine mystery!

Jer. 12:3-4 Yet you know me, Lord; you see me and test my thoughts about you. Drag them off like sheep to be butchered! Set them apart for the day of slaughter! How long will the land lie parched and the grass in every field be withered? Because those who live in it are wicked, the animals and birds have perished. Moreover, the people are saying, “He will not see what happens to us.”

#Divine testing!

Jer. 12:5-6 “If you have raced with men on foot and they have worn you out, how can you compete with horses? If you stumble in safe country, how will you manage in the thickets by[b] the Jordan? Your relatives, members of your own family— even they have betrayed you; they have raised a loud cry against you. Do not trust them, though they speak well of you.

Let us pray: Father God, help us understand the mysteries of life in the name of Jesus

#Life questions and meditation:

1. Do you understand the mysteries of God?

2. Do you understand the judgment of God?

#Remain planted!..

Jer. 11:16 The Lord called you a thriving olive tree with fruit beautiful in form. But with the roar of a mighty storm he will set it on fire, and its branches will be broken.

#Remain fruitful!

Jer. 11:17 The Lord Almighty, who planted you, has decreed disaster for you, because the people of both Israel and Judah have done evil and aroused my anger by burning incense to Baal.

#Remain planted!

Jer. 11:18-19 Because the Lord revealed their plot to me, I knew it, for at that time he showed me what they were doing. I had been like a gentle lamb led to the slaughter; I did not realize that they had plotted against me, saying, “Let us destroy the tree and its fruit;     let us cut him off from the land of the living, that his name be remembered no more.”

#Remain pure!

Jer. 11:20 But you, Lord Almighty, who judge righteously and test the heart and mind, let me see your vengeance on them, for to you I have committed my cause.

Let us pray: Father God, arise and judge our enemies in the name of Jesus
