November 19 - Daily Message - Jeremiah 13:2

I believe this is a message to us from God, written from His perspective – Sherri 

Jeremiah 13:2 NLT “So I bought the loincloth as the LORD directed me and I put it on.”
 
How often do I ask you to do things that don’t seem to make sense and yet your obedience is critical?
 
There is a much bigger plan going on than you can imagine. Your obedience, whether you understand it or not, makes a difference. Sometimes you will feel a need to pray for someone or a group of people unexpectedly or go talk to someone or feel an assignment to go do something. Of course, you always have a choice and yet your obedience is very much appreciated and impacts the Kingdom.”
 
Iin this case, I used this loincloth to demonstrate something much bigger to Jeremiah. I am using this loincloth to tell the Israelites that their egos and pride, their disobedience to Me, will cause their destruction and give them the opportunity to repent and make different choices, to set aside stubbornly following their own desires and worshipping other Gods (verses 13:10, 16). If Jeremiah had not been obedient, the Israelites would not have receive My warning.
 
Do not beat yourself up when you don’t obey, that does not do any good either, but please know that the main point here is not My overall plan or even your obedience, although both of those are important. The primary focus is simply what I share here with the Israelites
 
Jeremiah 13:11 ESV “For as the loincloth clings to the waist of a man, so I made the whole house of Judah cling to Me, declares the LORD, that they might be for Me a people, a name, a praise, and a glory”
 
I want you to be My people. For people to see you and see that you are connected with Me and you are a praise and a glory to Me. Then, they too, will be compelled to know Me, which brings greater praise and glory, which leads more into My Kingdom and brings more of Me to the earth and handles all problems being faced today. Your obedience does really make a difference, and I am thrilled when you obey…and yet I have a lot of grace when you do not and find other ways to do what is important, but I want you to be the one that gets to participate.
