Hold Fast To That Which Is Good

  As Church-age believers, we are blessed to have the whole counsel of God in the completed canon of Scriptures, which continues to open our understanding to God's eternal plans and purposes. Plans for His people, for the world He created, and for those of us who are His Church-age children. But men of God like Jeremiah, who prophesied of many future events, were often ignorant of the meaning of their predictions, and soon after he purchased the land as the Lord had instructed him, he prayed for understanding: "Oh, Lord God! You Yourself made the heavens and earth by Your great power and with Your outstretched arm. Nothing is too difficult for You!"
 Like Jeremiah, we too live among a generation that calls evil good, and good evil. The Word of the Lord is rejected and ridiculed on all sides, and soon a day is coming when the world in which we live will be catapulted into a time of Great Tribulation (the Time of Jacob's Trouble), when God's wrath will be poured out on a world that has rejected the Truth and refused God's saving grace through faith in Christ. But like Jeremiah, we must remain faithful to our calling during our time on earth. We are to stand firm in these evil days and hold fast to the truth. We are to trust in the Lord with all our hearts, even when we do not understand what is happening in this fallen world and why we have to endure these evil days. We are to follow Jeremiah's example and Hold Fast To That Which Is Good, looking to Jesus as we stand on the promises of God. 
Jeremiah 32:17 “Ah, Sovereign LORD, you have made the heavens and the earth by your great power and outstretched arm. Nothing is too hard for you.

Our United Prayer:
 Lord GOD! Behold, You have made the heavens and the earth by Your great power and by Your outstretched arm! Nothing is too difficult for You. Praise Your holy name, AMEN.
