WORD DIARY: SATURDAY AUGUST 15, 2026

 

#Time for testing!..

Jer. 9:6 You live in the midst of deception; in their deceit they refuse to acknowledge me,” declares the Lord.

#Acknowledge the Lord!

Jer. 9:7 Therefore this is what the Lord Almighty says: “See, I will refine and test them,     for what else can I do because of the sin of my people?

#Time for testing!

Jer. 9:8-9 Their tongue is a deadly arrow; it speaks deceitfully. With their mouths they all speak cordially to their neighbors, but in their hearts they set traps for them. Should I not punish them for this?” declares the Lord. “Should I not avenge myself on such a nation as this?”

#Speak the truth!

Jer. 9:10-11 I will weep and wail for the mountains and take up a lament concerning the wilderness grasslands. They are desolate and untraveled, and the lowing of cattle is not heard. The birds have all fled and the animals are gone. “I will make Jerusalem a heap of ruins, a haunt of jackals; and I will lay waste the towns of Judah so no one can live there.”

Let us pray: Father God, have mercy and refresh our land in the name of Jesus

#Life questions and meditation:

1. Would you rather be tested?

2. Would you rather be refined?
