232 - "Burning Our Essential Oils for Nothing" Jeremiah 41-44

                                   

Plenty of food.

Well off.

Suffered no harm.

All the army officers refused to listen to Jeremiah, the prophet.  God did not send you to tell us to leave the land of Judah.  We are doing too well here burning the incense to the Queen of Heaven.  And, it is working.  So, if your life is working well, don't disturb it.  It's the mantra of so many of us.  Jer.  44:17-18. What should we do?  Train yourselves to distinguish what is good v. evil. Heb. 5:14.     Let us not stay in this peace of good circumstances, for this may cost us a relationship with God.  Let us not take the easy road to not disturb a relationship that is unhealthy. Let us not become complacent when God says to move on. Let us listen to those who speak based on the Word. They have been around for a very long time. If not, we are burning our essential oils for nothing.  

PHOTO:  The enemy of our soul wants us to be complacent and content with our outside present life without addressing what is really going on inside our souls.
