The Word:

WHERE IS THE LORD?

Jeremiah 2:8
The priests said not, Where is the Lord? and they that handle the law knew Me not: the pastors also transgressed against Me, and the prophets prophesied by Baal, and walked after things that do not profit!

The Prophet Jeremiah had some harsh words to say to the people whom in the past God had delivered - how many times have we been like those Jeremiah was talking to? We have all asked the same question - where is the Lord? The people who were delivered by God didn't praise Him for long -they went back to their old ways - their pre-delievrance days - why go back? God is so good to us -Who else is like our Lord? How often does God save us from something that we forget and move along that same ol path - if we all took a good look at our lives -we could say we all need a change. The election is now over and the platform of the whole election could be summed up in one word- Change - both men who ran for the office of President, kept beating the drum called change - God longs to change our hearts - He no longer wants us to remain in our old ways - God sent His Son to deliver us from our sin but also to give us life! Abundant life - Those whom God has delivered had forgotten His goodness and His grace -they thought they knew better then God and fell back into their old ways - let that not be said of us - lets not ever go back to the time before we knew Christ -we can think back and then see the grace and hand of God on our lives- but let us not remain there -lets head to the promised land - God has a plan for each of us - we should no longer say where is the Lord? We should have faith that says even when we cannot see His hands or face -that He is still active -His goal remains the same - to see everyone come to know Him - lets praise our LORD JESUS in all we do - Lets remember the price He paid -
Where is the LORD? He is right there with you - right now!

The Final Word:
When you can no longer see God -that's when He is holding you so close you cannot see Him -that my child is why we need faith! Praise GOD!
CHRIST is close to His children!
