Psalm: 38 Meditation: LamJeremiah watched the end of Jerusalem having done everything possible to avert the outcome. Have you ever seen the ruins left of a great city or civilization?

Psalm: 25 Meditation: MattJesus points out the unbelief of the towns that had witnessed His ministry and miracles. His pronouncements of woes or curses on those same towns shows God’s displeasure with people that were supposed to be dedicated to God and his kingdom.

Psalms: 87, 97 Meditation Jeremiah: The LORD has done what no one had ever believed possible: He has overseen the destruction of Jerusalem because of the sin of His people. Why do we believe He will not do the same to us? Jeremiah weeps both for the city itself as well as its people as …

Psalm: 17 Meditation Jeremiah: The LORD refers to the house of Jacob as foolish and senseless which can neither see nor hear. More hardening of hearts - much as we saw in Pharaoh in Egypt, oddly with a similar result – death and destruction. The people won’t listen to God’s prophets but rather to the …

Psalm: 78:1-39 Meditation Revelation: I have seen the like of this before in Scripture: the fall of Jerusalem by Nebuchadnezzar. The description of the fall of Babylon has been found in virtually every epoch in history – if not to us then certainly to those who lived through it. Take Paris, for example, during the …

Psalms: 75 Meditation Revelation: “Then the angel carried me away in the Spirit into the desert.” (v. 3) Whatever spin you may want to put on this, we have seen this before in Ezekiel. Elijah was also one who was carried by the Spirit hither, thither, and yon. Because of Babylon’s close association with the …

Psalm: 65 Meditation Nehemiah: Jerusalem had been leveled by Nebuchadnezzar. Dust and rubble. Nehemiah and his volunteers managed to rebuild the city walls in 52 days. Apparently the history of Jerusalem itself struck fear into the locals such that they sent threatening letters to ward of Nehemiah and those with him. His worried friends suggested …

Psalm: 146 Meditation 1 Peter: Spiritual maturity is the responsibility of each Christian for himself. “Crave spiritual milk so that you may grow up in your salvation…” (v. 2) Spiritual milk is but the beginning, for eventually we must move on to solid food (see Hebrews 514). Peter later writes that we are a chosen …
