WORD DIARY: FRIDAY OCTOBER 2, 2026

 

#Beware of divine judgment!..

Jer. 23: 16 This is what the Lord Almighty says: “Do not listen to what the prophets are prophesying to you; they fill you with false hopes. They speak visions from their own minds, not from the mouth of the Lord.

#Reject false prophesies!

Jer. 23: 17-18 They keep saying to those who despise me, ‘The Lord says: You will have peace.’ And to all who follow the stubbornness of their hearts they say, ‘No harm will come to you.’ But which of them has stood in the council of the Lord to see or to hear his word?     Who has listened and heard his word?

#Reject false prophets!

Jer. 23: 19-20 See, the storm of the Lord will burst out in wrath, a whirlwind swirling down     on the heads of the wicked. The anger of the Lord will not turn back until he fully accomplishes the purposes of his heart. In days to come you will understand it clearly.

#Beware of divine judgment!

Jer. 23: 21-22 I did not send these prophets, yet they have run with their message; I did not speak to them, yet they have prophesied. But if they had stood in my council, they would have proclaimed my words to my people and would have turned them from their evil ways     and from their evil deeds.

Let us pray: Father God, we receive the grace to declare your counsel in the name of Jesus

#Life questions and meditation:

1. Would you rather listen to false prophesies and prophets?

2. Are you aware of divine judgment?

WORD DIARY: THURSDAY OCTOBER 1, 2026

 

#Desire godliness!..

Jer. 23: 9-10 Concerning the prophets: My heart is broken within me; all my bones tremble. I am like a drunken man, like a strong man overcome by wine, because of the Lord and his holy words. The land is full of adulterers; because of the curse the land lies parched and the pastures in the wilderness are withered. The prophets follow an evil course and use their power unjustly.

#Desire good course!

Jer. 23: 11-12 “Both prophet and priest are godless; even in my temple I find their wickedness,” declares the Lord. “Therefore their path will become slippery; they will be banished to darkness and there they will fall. I will bring disaster on them in the year they are punished,” declares the Lord.

#Desire godliness!

Jer. 23: 13-14 “Among the prophets of Samaria I saw this repulsive thing: They prophesied by Baal and led my people Israel astray. And among the prophets of Jerusalem I have seen something horrible: They commit adultery and live a lie. They strengthen the hands of evildoers, so that not one of them turns from their wickedness. They are all like Sodom to me; the people of Jerusalem are like Gomorrah.”

#Reject ungodliness!

Jer. 23: 15 Therefore this is what the Lord Almighty says concerning the prophets: “I will make them eat bitter food and drink poisoned water, because from the prophets of  Jerusalem ungodliness has spread throughout the land.”

Let us pray: Father God, we reject every spirit of ungodliness in the name of Jesus

#Life questions and meditation:

1. Would you rather desire godliness?

2. Would you rather desire ungodliness?

WORD DIARY: WEDNESDAY SEPTEMBER 30, 2026

 

#Desire wisdom and justice!..

Jer. 23: 2 Therefore this is what the Lord, the God of Israel, says to the shepherds who tend my people: “Because you have scattered my flock and driven them away and have not bestowed care on them, I will bestow punishment on you for the evil you have done,” declares the Lord.

#Care for others!

Jer. 23: 3-4 “I myself will gather the remnant of my flock out of all the countries where I have driven them and will bring them back to their pasture, where they will be fruitful and increase in number. I will place shepherds over them who will tend them, and they will no longer be afraid or terrified, nor will any be missing,” declares the Lord.

#Gather the remnants!

Jer. 23: 5-6 “The days are coming,” declares the Lord, “when I will raise up for David a righteous Branch, a King who will reign wisely and do what is just and right in the land. In his days Judah will be saved and Israel will live in safety. This is the name by which he will be called: The Lord Our Righteous Savior.

#Desire wisdom and justice!

Jer. 23: 7-8 “So then, the days are coming,” declares the Lord, “when people will no longer say, ‘As surely as the Lord lives, who brought the Israelites up out of Egypt,’ but they will say, ‘As surely as the Lord lives, who brought the descendants of Israel up out of the land of the north and out of all the countries where he had banished them.’ Then they will live in their own land.”

Let us pray: Father God, thank you for your mercy endures forever in the name of Jesus.

#Life questions and meditation:

1. Would you rather care for others?

2. Would you rather be selfish?

WORD DIARY: TUESDAY SEPTEMBER 29, 2026

 

#Cry for mercy!..

Jer. 22: 22-23 The wind will drive all your shepherds away, and your allies will go into exile. Then you will be ashamed and disgraced because of all your wickedness. You who live in ‘Lebanon,’ who are nestled in cedar buildings, how you will groan when pangs come upon you, pain like that of a woman in labor!

#Cause and effect!

Jer. 22: 24-27 “As surely as I live,” declares the Lord, “even if you, Jehoiachin son of Jehoiakim king of Judah, were a signet ring on my right hand, I would still pull you off. I will deliver you into the hands of those who want to kill you, those you fear—Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon and the Babylonians. I will hurl you and the mother who gave you birth into another country, where neither of you was born, and there you both will die. You will never come back to the land you long to return to.”

#Cry for mercy!

Jer. 22: 28-30 Is this man Jehoiachin a despised, broken pot, an object no one wants? Why will he and his children be hurled out, cast into a land they do not know? O land, land, land, hear the word of the Lord! This is what the Lord says: “Record this man as if childless, a man who will not prosper in his lifetime, for none of his offspring will prosper,     none will sit on the throne of David or rule anymore in Judah.”

#Contend for deliverance!

Jer. 23: 1 “Woe to the shepherds who are destroying and scattering the sheep of my pasture!” declares the Lord.

Let us pray: Father God, we receive the grace to steward our position of influence in the name of Jesus

#Life questions and meditation:

1. Have you offended God and man?

2. Have you pleaded for mercy and deliverance?

WORD DIARY: MONDAY SEPTEMBER 28, 2026

 

#Reject dishonest gain!..

Jer. 22: 16 He defended the cause of the poor and needy, and so all went well. Is that not what it means to know me?” declares the Lord.

#Defend the poor!

Jer. 22: 17 “But your eyes and your heart are set only on dishonest gain, on shedding innocent blood and on oppression and extortion.”

#Reject dishonest gain!

 Jer. 22: 18-19 Therefore this is what the Lord says about Jehoiakim son of Josiah king of Judah: “They will not mourn for him: ‘Alas, my brother! Alas, my sister!’ They will not mourn for him: ‘Alas, my master! Alas, his splendor!’ He will have the burial of a donkey— dragged away and thrown outside the gates of Jerusalem.”

#Mind divine judgment!

Jer. 22: 20-21 “Go up to Lebanon and cry out, let your voice be heard in Bashan, cry out from Abarim, for all your allies are crushed. I warned you when you felt secure, but you said, ‘I will not listen!’ This has been your way from your youth; you have not obeyed me.

Let us pray: Father God, we receive the grace for obedience in the name of Jesus

#Life questions and meditation:

1. Would you rather have honest gain?

2. Would you rather have dishonest gain?

WORD DIARY: SUNDAY SEPTEMBER 27, 2026

 

#Reject every captivity!..

Jer. 22: 8-9 “People from many nations will pass by this city and will ask one another, ‘Why has the Lord done such a thing to this great city?’ And the answer will be: ‘Because they have forsaken the covenant of the Lord their God and have worshiped and served other gods.’”

#Embrace the covenant!

Jer. 22: 10-12 Do not weep for the dead king or mourn his loss; rather, weep bitterly for him who is exiled, because he will never return nor see his native land again. For this is what the Lord says about Shallum[a] son of Josiah, who succeeded his father as king of Judah but has gone from this place: “He will never return. He will die in the place where they have led him captive; he will not see this land again.”

#Reject every captivity!

Jer. 22: 13 -14 “Woe to him who builds his palace by unrighteousness, his upper rooms by injustice, making his own people work for nothing, not paying them for their labor. He says, ‘I will build myself a great palace with spacious upper rooms.’ So he makes large windows in it, panels it with cedar and decorates it in red.

#Reject all unrighteousness!

Jer. 22: 15 “Does it make you a king to have more and more cedar? Did not your father have food and drink? He did what was right and just, so all went well with him.

Let us pray: Father God, we receive the grace to what is right in the name of Jesus

#Life questions and meditation:

1. Would you rather be in captivity?

2. Would you rather be in freedom?

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.

ACTIVATING DIVINE PROTECTION! – PART 4 – CONCLUSION!.. (ANOINTING SERVICE)

 

“He that dwelleth in the secret place of the Most High shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty.” — Psalm 91:1

Psalm 127:1 cautions against self-help, - "Unless the LORD builds the house, its builders labor in vain; unless the LORD protects the city, its watchmen stand guard in vain."  In a world where uncertainty, danger, fear, insecurity, and unexpected challenges abound, the temptation to rely on ourselves can be overwhelming. But God has not left us without a covering. Scripture reveals that divine protection is not merely a promise to admire but a spiritual reality that believers can walk in through faith, obedience, prayer, and intimacy with God. It is our responsibility to draw on this reality as we progress in our earthly pilgrimage.

Our anchor scripture for this month, Psalm 91, is one of the most powerful passages in the Bible concerning God's protection. The Psalm begins with a condition and a promise: “He that dwelleth in the secret place of the Most High shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty (Psalm 91:1). The emphasis is on “dwelling”. God's protection is closely connected to our relationship with Him. The secret place speaks of intimacy, fellowship, prayer, trust, and dependence upon God. Those who make God their habitation discover that His presence becomes their refuge and fortress. Psalm 91 declares that God is able to deliver His people from hidden dangers, terror by night, arrows by day, pestilence, destruction, and threats that cannot always be seen with the natural eye. The picture of a loving God who watches over His children is painted beautifully in verse 4: “He shall cover thee with his feathers, and under his wings shalt thou trust.”

Throughout Scripture, divine protection is consistently revealed as part of God's covenant relationship with His people. According to Psalm 121:7–8, “The LORD shall preserve thee from all evil: he shall preserve thy soul. The LORD shall preserve thy going out and thy coming in.” Isaiah 54:17 assures us, “No weapon that is formed against thee shall prosper.”, while 2 Thessalonians 3:3 reminds believers that “the Lord is faithful, who shall stablish you, and keep you from evil.” God protected Noah and his family in the midst of judgment, preserved the Israelites through the Red Sea, delivered Daniel from the lions, protected the three Hebrew children in the fiery furnace, and rescued Peter from prison. These accounts remind us that God remains a protector in every generation.

The four-part series for the month of September “Activating Divine Protection”, invites us to trust God, remain under His authority, obey His Word, pray consistently, exercise wisdom, and stand firmly on His promises. God's protection does not always mean the absence of storms; sometimes it means His presence and preservation in the middle of the storm.

Join us this Sunday, as we explore the theme and conclude the series.
