#Desire a separation!..

Jer. 9:1 Oh, that my head were a spring of water and my eyes a fountain of tears! I would weep day and night for the slain of my people.

#No more weeping!

Jer. 9:2 Oh, that I had in the desert a lodging place for travelers, so that I might leave my people and go away from them; for they are all adulterers, a crowd of unfaithful people.

#Desire a separation!

Jer. 9:3 “They make ready their tongue like a bow, to shoot lies; it is not by truth that they triumph in the land. They go from one sin to another; they do not acknowledge me,” declares the Lord.

#Desire the truth!

Let us pray: Father God, we receive grace to pursue the truth in the name of Jesus

WORD DIARY: THURSDAY AUGUST 13, 2026

 

#Desire divine comfort!..

Jer. 8:16 The snorting of the enemy’s horses is heard from Dan; at the neighing of their stallions the whole land trembles. They have come to devour the land and everything in it,     the city and all who live there.

#Reject enemy invasion!

Jer. 8:17 “See, I will send venomous snakes among you, vipers that cannot be charmed,    and they will bite you,” declares the Lord.

#Beware of poison!

Jer. 8:18-19 You who are my Comforter in sorrow, my heart is faint within me. Listen to the cry of my people from a land far away: “Is the Lord not in Zion? Is her King no longer there?” “Why have they aroused my anger with their images, with their worthless foreign idols?”

#Desire divine comfort!

Jer. 8:20-22 “The harvest is past, the summer has ended, and we are not saved.” Since my people are crushed, I am crushed; I mourn, and horror grips me. Is there no balm in Gilead? Is there no physician there? Why then is there no healing for the wound of my people?

Let us pray: Father God, heal us of every wound in the name of Jesus

#Life questions and meditation:

1. Would you rather seek divine comfort?

2. Would you rather seek human comfort?

WORD DIARY: WEDNESDAY AUGUST 12, 2026

 

 

#Beware of shame!..

Jer. 8:10-11 Therefore I will give their wives to other men and their fields to new owners. From the least to the greatest, all are greedy for gain; prophets and priests alike, all practice deceit. They dress the wound of my people as though it were not serious. “Peace, peace,” they say, when there is no peace.

#Beware of deception!

Jer. 8:12 Are they ashamed of their detestable conduct? No, they have no shame at all;     they do not even know how to blush. So they will fall among the fallen; they will be brought down when they are punished, says the Lord.

#Beware of shame!

Jer. 8:13 “‘I will take away their harvest, declares the Lord. There will be no grapes on the vine. There will be no figs on the tree, and their leaves will wither. What I have given them     will be taken from them.’”

#Beware of scarcity!

Jer. 8:14-15 Why are we sitting here? Gather together! Let us flee to the fortified cities     and perish there! For the Lord our God has doomed us to perish and given us poisoned water to drink, because we have sinned against him. We hoped for peace but no good has come, for a time of healing but there is only terror.

Let us pray: Father God, have mercy and heal us in the name of Jesus

#Life questions and meditation:

1. Would you rather engage in shameful acts?

2. Would you rather engage in honorable acts?

WORD DIARY: TUESDAY AUGUST 11, 2026

 

#Observe the seasons!..

Jer. 8:4-5 “Say to them, ‘This is what the Lord says: “‘When people fall down, do they not get up? When someone turns away, do they not return? Why then have these people turned away? Why does Jerusalem always turn away? They cling to deceit; they refuse to return.

#Change for better!

Jer. 8:6 I have listened attentively, but they do not say what is right. None of them repent of their wickedness, saying, “What have I done?” Each pursues their own course like a horse charging into battle.

#Say the right thing!

Jer. 8:7 Even the stork in the sky knows her appointed seasons, and the dove, the swift and the thrush observe the time of their migration. But my people do not know the requirements of the Lord.

#Observe the seasons!

Jer. 8:8-9 “‘How can you say, “We are wise, for we have the law of the Lord,” when actually the lying pen of the scribes has handled it falsely? The wise will be put to shame;     they will be dismayed and trapped. Since they have rejected the word of the Lord, what kind of wisdom do they have?

Let us pray: Father God, may we not be put to shame in the name of Jesus

#Life questions and meditation:

1. What season are you in?

2. What would you do in the season?

WORD DIARY: MONDAY AUGUST 10, 2026

 

#Consequences of sin!..

Jer. 7:32 So beware, the days are coming, declares the Lord, when people will no longer call it Topheth or the Valley of Ben Hinnom, but the Valley of Slaughter, for they will bury the dead in Topheth until there is no more room.

#Beware of destruction!

Jer. 7:33-34 Then the carcasses of this people will become food for the birds and the wild animals, and there will be no one to frighten them away. I will bring an end to the sounds of joy and gladness and to the voices of bride and bridegroom in the towns of Judah and the streets of Jerusalem, for the land will become desolate.

#Consequences of sin!

Jer. 8:1-2“‘At that time, declares the Lord, the bones of the kings and officials of Judah, the bones of the priests and prophets, and the bones of the people of Jerusalem will be removed from their graves. They will be exposed to the sun and the moon and all the stars of the heavens, which they have loved and served and which they have followed and consulted and worshiped. They will not be gathered up or buried, but will be like dung lying on the ground.

#Cry for mercy!

Jer. 8:3 Wherever I banish them, all the survivors of this evil nation will prefer death to life, declares the Lord Almighty.’

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

1. Are you aware of the consequences of sin?

2. Would you rather reject sin?

#Declare the truth!

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.

NEW BEGINNING! – PART 2 - THE NEW CREATION!..

 

"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.

As we journey through this month together, let us approach God's Word with expectant hearts. Let us believe that the God who opened the Red Sea, restored broken lives, raised Jesus from the dead, and established the Church is still at work today. May this month mark the beginning of a fresh season of faith, obedience, fruitfulness, and spiritual growth as we experience the life-changing reality of God's New Beginning.
