Week 2 Day 4 in our Jeremiah studies. There are resources the Lord God gives to us. What are we doing with these resources? He wants us to help those in need.

The generous soul will be made rich, And he who waters will also be watered himself.

Proverbs chapter 11 verse 25

And everyone who competes for the prize is temperate in all things. Now they do it to obtain a perishable crown, but we for an imperishable crown.

The work of righteousness will be peace,  And the effect of righteousness, quietness and assurance forever. My people will dwell in a peaceful habitation, In secure dwellings, and in quiet resting places,

Isaiah chapter 32 verses 17-18

Now faith is the substance of things hoped for,  the evidence of things not seen.

Hebrews chapter 11 verse 1.

You who fear the LORD, trust in the LORD; He is their help and their shield.

Psalm 115 verse 11.

But He answered and said, “It is written, ‘Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceeds from the mouth of God.'”

Matthew chapter 4 verse 4.

Show me Your ways, O LORD; Teach me Your paths. Lead me in Your truth and teach me, For You are the God of my salvation; On You I wait all the day.

Psalm 25 verses 4 and 5

Week 2 Day 3 in Jeremiah. Consequences of chasing idols, the counterfeit substitution for Almighty God. There is no substitute. Religion is not a substitute. Walking away from the Lord? The outcome of chasing after the worthless things of this realm? Loss! Peace. Joy. Contentment. Loss! The Father loves us and will not allow us to stray. He will correct His children and the correction may be severe. Put away the idols.

Beloved, do not imitate what is evil, but what is good. He who does good is of God, but he who does evil has not seen God.

Third John chapter 1 verse 11.
