HEART THAT BELIEVES THE LORD AGAINST VAIN PROPHECY

August 18 Heart for God Bible Meditations Based on Jeremiah 23-25

Key Verse – Jeremiah 23:16 Thus saith the LORD of hosts, Hearken not unto the words of the prophets that prophesy unto you: they make you vain: they speak a vision of their own heart, and not out of the mouth of the LORD.

HEART THAT BELIEVES THE LORD AGAINST VAIN PROPHECY Our heart believes the Lord against vain prophecy amidst His compassion Since He checks our wrong reaction with His supervision As we are repentant because of our pride’s transgression Letting Him restore us along His assured joy of salvation by His peace-provision. Our heart believes the Lord against vain prophecy amidst His mercy Since He reproves our disobedience and our inconsistency As we are humbled before Him with sincere fervency Letting Him instruct us along His ready clemency. Our heart believes the Lord against vain prophecy amidst His chastisement Since He corrects our errors for truth establishment As we are sincere in our confession, needy of His pardon-treatment Letting Him revive us along His protection-bestowment. Our heart believes the Lord against vain prophecy amidst His perfect will Since He sanctifies our doubts upon His promises He does fulfill As we are illumined to trust Him because of Calvary’s hill Letting Him uphold us along His redemption bill. Our heart believes the Lord against vain prophecy amidst His goodness Since He disciplines our defiance to comply to His commands’ seriousness As we are grateful in praising Him for His loving kindness Letting Him nurture us along His patient graciousness. Our heart believes the Lord against vain prophecy amidst His Biblical counsel Since He warns our negligence to exercise spiritual muscle As we are I willing to learn from truth’s whole, not just parcel Letting Him direct us along His teaching epistle. Our heart believes the Lord against vain prophecy amidst His ways Since He hides our discouragement during challenging days As we are responsive to His enlightenment-rays Letting Him guide us along His righteous pace.
