The Healing Visit - 4
Jeremiah 15:15-18
O LORD, thou knowest: remember me, and visit me, and revenge me of my persecutors; take me not away in thy longsuffering: know that for thy sake I have suffered rebuke. Thy words were found, and I did eat them; and thy word was unto me the joy and rejoicing of mine heart: for I am called by thy name, O LORD God of hosts. I sat not in the assembly of the mockers, nor rejoiced; I sat alone because of thy hand: for thou hast filled me with indignation. Why is my pain perpetual, and my wound incurable, [which] refuseth to be healed? wilt thou be altogether unto me as a liar, [and as] waters [that] fail?
Jeremiah is leading us through this prayer with a deepening understanding of how he talked to God and that he found in the Words of God, and he consumed them. He made them a part of himself. The mouth is part of the body's seven gateways: eyes, mouth, nose, ears, touch, awareness of space (proprioception), and the unscientific sense- our spirit! We adopt our perception of what we sense by experience and cognitive learning (Psalm 100:4). But, most importantly, we must guard our gateways (Job 31:1, 9-11; Psalms 101:3- 6; 1 John 2:15-17; 1 Corinthians 10:13; Hebrews 12:2). Putting yourself in positions and accepting things that are not of God's will can destroy us and our relationship with God. Are your gateways blocked or clear?
Elohim Machase Lanu, God Our Refuge - Psalm 62:8; we thank You for being the God of our Refuge. We praise You for allowing us to find Your Words and consume them, making them a part of us. Therefore, we declare and decree the blessing (the indwelling of the Holy Spirit) upon those who find and consume Your Word; so that, the substance of Life sustains us. Now, for the Kingdom and Glory of God, we petition, with the anointing of the Holy Ghost, in the name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior, Amen.
