Conversation between Jeremiah and the Lord

 Jeremiah 11:18-12:6

Because the Lord revealed their plot to me, I knew it, for at that time he showed me what they were doing. I had been like a gentle lamb led to the slaughter; I did not realize that they had plotted against me, saying,

Let us destroy the tree and its fruit;  let us cut him off from the land of the living, that his name be remembered no more.” But you, Lord Almighty, who judge righteousl  and test the heart and mind, let me see your vengeance on them, for to you I have committed my cause.

therefore this is what the Lord Almighty says: “I will punish them. Their young men will die by the sword, their sons and daughters by famine. Not even a remnantwill be left to them, because I will bring disaster on the people of Anathoth in the year of their punishment.”

2 You have planted them, and they have taken root; they grow and bear fruit.
You are always on their lips but far from their hearts.
3 Yet you know me, Lord; you see me and test my thoughts about you.
Drag them off like sheep to be butchered!  Set them apart for the day of slaughter!

Why?

Jeremiah claimed the Lord, the Lord answered him, God will punish them and not even a remnant will be left to them. It is the Lord revenge for Jeremiah.

Don;t worry, when we are under distress or trouble, when we pray to the Lord with our heart and mind and obey God’s word. God will blesses us even we might suffer so stress.

How?

The Lord is my shelter and shepher, Trust in the Lord and obey God’s command forever not for my safety but for God’s love comes upon me.
