Scripture:

LAMENTATIONS 5:1-22, OBADIAH 1:1-21, 2 KINGS 25:22-26, JEREMIAH 40:7-41:18

A Great Harvest

They began to return to Judah from the places to which they had fled. They stopped at Mizpah to meet with Gedaliah and then went into the Judean countryside to gather a great harvest of grapes and other crops.

Jeremiah 40:12

My Take Aways

Something Old

The enemies of the LORD and the LORD’s people will pay for what they have done.

Something New

A beautiful picture of restoration and redemption from our lesson A Sovereign Stay In The Ruins from August 26^th.

God can make anything grow anywhere.

He makes beauty from ashes.
He makes highways in the sea.
He makes dry bones into an army.
He makes streams in a desert.
He makes a spirit of mourning into a garment of praise.
He makes a harvest in a pile of ruins.

Well, just listen to the song.

Something To Do

Hang in there until He turns my graves into gardens… until my harvest is great. Work in the ruins so when others come back, they too will reap the benefits of the harvest.https://youtu.be/-Ejs2o-uhu4
