For the LORD of hosts, who planted you, has pronounced doom against you for the evil of the house of Israel and of the house of Judah, which they have done against themselves to provoke Me to anger in offering incense to Baal. Jeremiah 11.17

To provoke God to anger was the supreme folly of the people of Judah, who allowed themselves to be led astray and did not repent in time to prevent God’s patience from running out. Take care that this never happens to you. The Lord can do nothing but abandon you, and thus, your future will be difficult, compromised and sad (Isaiah 59.1,2). The Most High has planted you in salvation, so that your life will be an example to the lost. React and turn to Him!

Saul, the first king of Israel, left the presence of God, who would make him a good monarch. Then he saw the Most High choosing David to succeed him. Saul’s bad attitude was his downfall (1 Samuel 15.23 and 16.1). It doesn’t matter who the Lord has decided to use; He certainly has other missions prepared for you. Pray and seek to know the plan for your life. God has written everything about everyone in the Holy Bible (Psalm 139.15,16). If you seek the right guidance, you will find it, and you will be very happy!

Many saved people get tired of walking on the good path and when tempted by the devil to do the same as the lost do, they don’t even remember to pray for mercy so as not to betray the Lord. When Judgment comes, they will be lumped in with those who have no faith in God and no respect for the divine purpose. Those who sin and consider themselves innocent are lying, for after the error, the conviction of the Holy Spirit that you have not acted well comes (1 John 1.6,8). Be honest and you will succeed!

Temptation is always well elaborated by Satan, who uses every argument to get the saved one to enter through the wide door, where everything is allowed and “beautiful”. But when the person sees the justice of God acting against him, he will despair (Matthew 7.13). Now, repentance is the only way to escape from perdition. Having sinned, you find yourself in the devil’s hands. Ask for forgiveness the minute after you commit the act, and never do it again (1 John 1.9).

God plants as a good olive tree whoever is converted and confesses his transgressions. Already in the arms of Jesus, this person should be a blessing. However, if he listens to the temptations that come upon everyone – after all, even the Son of God was tempted – he will forget the Word and say yes to the devil. Those who have sinned need to repent and open their hearts. Then they will be forgiven and restored to the Kingdom of Happiness. Examine yourself!

He who saves and calls His own green olive trees (Jeremiah 11.16) also pronounces evil against those who do not watch and pray, for He cannot tolerate the betrayal of many. Never fall into the devil’s trap, nor justify yourself by saying that something prevented you from staying alert. Don’t try to make your mistake be accepted, but forsake it while there is time to get right with the Most High. The fate of the impenitent is very serious. Be vigilant!

Why burn incense to the lord of promiscuity, watch immoral movies, think evil and sinful things? The day will come when many will despair at their own wrong attitudes, which will lead them to perdition. Now is the right time to repent. Do it now!

In Christ, with love,
