He Took Our Pain

Based off Isaiah 53

Who has believed our message?

To whom has our Lord been revealed?

He had no beauty or majesty;

His looks, to none did appeal.

He was despised, rejected.

A man of much suff’ring and pain,

From whom people have hid their faces,

then looked on Him with disdain.

Surely He took up our pain.

Our sorrow He bore on Himself.

Punished by God, we did judge Him so.

By His wounds, we are made well.

We all, like sheep, have wandered;

Each one of us turned his own way.

The Lord has taken upon Himself

Our sin, so we do not pay.

It was God’s will to crush Him,

To cause Him to suffer for us.

He paid the price for us to be free,

So we’re not mastered by lust.

By grace, through faith we are saved.

We are given new life in Christ.

By faith, we died with Him to our sin.

Through Christ, we now walk in light.

They Have Not Humbled Themselves

Jeremiah 44:3-10 BSB (Berean Standard Bible)

“3Because of the evil they have done. They provoked Me to anger by continuing to burn incense and to serve other gods that neither they nor you nor your fathers ever knew. 4Yet I sent you all My servants the prophets again and again, saying: ‘Do not do this detestable thing that I hate.’

5But they did not listen or incline their ears; they did not turn from their wickedness or stop burning incense to other gods. 6Therefore My wrath and anger poured out and burned in the cities of Judah and in the streets of Jerusalem, so that they have become the desolate ruin they are today.

7So now, this is what the LORD God of Hosts, the God of Israel, says: Why are you doing such great harm to yourselves by cutting off from Judah man and woman, child and infant, leaving yourselves without a remnant? 8Why are you provoking Me to anger by the work of your hands by burning incense to other gods in the land of Egypt, where you have gone to reside?

As a result, you will be cut off and will become an object of cursing and reproach among all the nations of the earth. 9Have you forgotten the wickedness of your fathers and of the kings of Judah and their wives, as well as the wickedness that you and your wives committed in the land of Judah and in the streets of Jerusalem? 10To this day they have not humbled themselves or shown reverence, nor have they followed My instruction or the statutes that I set before you and your fathers.”

Who are They?

Who are they today who are willfully and deliberately and habitually sinning against God without remorse, and without repentance, and without obedience to God and to His commands? They are the selfish and the self-indulgent who do as they please without regard for God and for His commands, and without regard for who they hurt in the process. They are idolaters and adulterers and the morally impure. And they are liars and those who fake their Christianity but who do not live what they profess.

They are superficial “Christians” who give the appearance of being in relationship with Jesus Christ but by their lifestyles they deny Him. They are those who give lip service to the Lord but who depart from Him and from His commands and from all that is holy, just, righteous, and morally pure, in order to gratify the sinful cravings of the flesh. They are drunk on sin, living to please the flesh, and following after the idols of this world while they profess Christ as Lord and Savior and salvation from sin for themselves.

And they are parasites. They are manipulators, deceivers, malicious, liars, the morally unclean, opportunists, untrustworthy, egocentrics who take advantage of other people and their vulnerability, and who use gaslighting as a way to control others and to manipulate others. They love to play mind games with others to keep them off balance and to create friction, also as a means to control and to manipulate others to their advantage. And they love to play the part of the victim when they are indeed the perpetrators.

Many are they today who are living in addiction to sexual immorality, who are habitually committing adultery against their spouses. And this doesn’t have to be a physical relationship with another person. Biblical adultery can be purely to just lust after another to whom one is not married, which can include (but does not have to) addiction to pornography and to self-gratification. They may also be those who are addicted to alcoholic beverages, or they can merely be intoxicated to their sinful habits.

Even though many of them profess faith in Jesus Christ with their lips they dismiss Him by their thoughts, attitudes, actions, and behaviors. For their idols are not something made out of wood or gold or metal or stone, but they are the sinful desires and passions of their own hearts, i.e. the things they long for and lust after and want more than they want to submit to God and to surrender to His will and to follow Him in obedience to His commands. They want their sins more than a biblical marriage to their spouses, too.

Therefore, they are those who provoke God to anger because they profess to know Him, and yet they deny Him habitually by chasing after their idols. For the god they serve is not our creator God, but it is whatever their flesh craves and gives in to and yields control over to on a deliberate and habitual basis, which is against God and against His will and against His Word. And even if they are confronted with the truth of what the Scriptures teach, they will not listen. But they will hear God say, “I never knew you. Depart!”

Obeying Other Humans Over God

Jeremiah 35:12-17 BSB (Berean Standard Bible)

12Then the word of the LORD came to Jeremiah: 13“This is what the LORD of Hosts, the God of Israel, says: Go and tell the men of Judah and the residents of Jerusalem: ‘Will you not accept discipline and obey My words?’ declares the LORD.

14The words of Jonadab son of Rechab have been carried out. He commanded his sons not to drink wine, and they have not drunk it to this very day because they have obeyed the command of their forefather. But I have spoken to you again and again, and you have not obeyed Me!

15Again and again I have sent you all My servants the prophets, proclaiming: ‘Turn now, each of you, from your wicked ways, and correct your actions. Do not go after other gods to serve them. Live in the land that I have given to you and your fathers.’ But you have not inclined your ear or listened to Me. 16Yes, the sons of Jonadab son of Rechab carried out the command their forefather gave them, but these people have not listened to Me.

17Therefore this is what the LORD God of Hosts, the God of Israel, says: ‘Behold, I will bring to Judah and to all the residents of Jerusalem all the disaster I have pronounced against them, because I have spoken to them but they have not obeyed, and I have called to them but they have not answered.’”

Is This For Us?

These are the words of God spoken by the prophet Jeremiah to the people of God of that time. So they are not written specifically for us. And yet, there is much biblical truth spoken here which can be applied to our lives, as well, a truth that is spoken to the people of God all throughout the New Testament Scriptures, too. And that is that all of us must obey God’s commands. We must put God above all others. We must not put humans above God. God must be first place in our lives now and always, and we must serve Him.

“All Scripture is God-breathed and is useful for instruction, for conviction, for correction, and for training in righteousness, so that the man of God may be complete, fully equipped for every good work.” (2 Timothy 3:16-17 BSB)

Applying This to Today

So, what was the situation here? The people were listening to other humans, and they were obeying them, but they were not obeying God and His commands. And this is still the situation today when so many people who profess faith in Jesus Christ are following the words and the ways of other humans rather than obeying the words of God. And this is especially evident in all the different versions of what people call “the gospel” which the people are largely believing, many of which are contrary to the teachings of Christ.

Some Examples of This

I used to teach ladies’ Bible studies. And one of the things I came up against on a somewhat regular basis was some of them challenging the words of God written in the Scriptures because their pastors taught something different. They looked to their pastors more in the position of God, and if he said it, they took it as though it came from God. But if what we were studying from the Scriptures contradicted what their pastors taught, then they sided with their pastors and what they taught, instead of believing God.

And I still face this situation on the internet where people will disagree with what I am sharing from the Scriptures because they were taught something different. And this is one of the main reasons I include Scripture references in pretty much everything that I write, because it is critical to me that I support what I am saying that the Scriptures teach with references to the Scriptures themselves so that you all who are reading this can see for yourselves what the Scriptures teach, and so you will believe God.

False Teachers and Teachings

For we have so many false teachers among us teaching lies to the people via taking Scriptures out of their correct biblical context and then twisting them to make them say what they do not say if taught in the correct biblical context. But we live in a day and time when so many people are preferring the shorter messages, and the feel good messages. So if it sounds good they go with it rather than to take the time to search the Scriptures themselves to make certain that what they are receiving and believing is the truth.

One of the biggest lies being believed today is that you can just pray a prayer to “receive Christ,” or you can proclaim with your lips that Jesus is Lord and that he died on a cross for our sins, and that he was resurrected from the dead, and now you are saved, done deal, nothing else required. But if you read the Scriptures in their full biblical context you will learn that God requires of us who profess faith in Jesus that we deny self, die to sin, and that we obey God and His commands as a matter of life practice.

The Gospel of Christ

Both under the Old Covenant and under the New Covenant we are instructed of God via His Word that we are to turn from our wicked ways, and that we are to correct our actions to be in agreement with His commands. And we are not to go after “other gods” which can be other humans or sinful practices or anyone or anything we raise above or in place of God. We must not give ourselves over to lying, cheating, stealing, hating, manipulating, and/or to sexual immorality, etc., but our lives must be given over to God.

For, we are taught in the Scriptures that if sin is our practice, and not obedience to God and to His commands, that no matter what our lips profess, we will not inherit eternal life with God. And we will not be saved from our sins. God will judge us according to our deeds, the Scriptures teach us. And not everyone who says, “Lord, Lord,” will enter the kingdom of heaven, but the one doing (obeying) the will of God the Father who is in heaven. So believe God. Believe His word. Don’t put humans above God!

Trust and Obey

Words by John H. Sammis, 1887

Music by Daniel B. Towner, 1887

When we walk with the Lord

in the light of His Word,
What a glory He sheds on our way!
While we do His good will,

He abides with us still,
And with all who will trust and obey.

Not a shadow can rise,

not a cloud in the skies,
But His smile quickly drives it away;
Not a doubt or a fear,

not a sigh or a tear,
Can abide while we trust and obey.

Not a burden we bear,

not a sorrow we share,
But our toil He doth richly repay;
Not a grief or a loss,

not a frown or a cross,
But is blessed if we trust and obey.

But we never can prove

the delights of His love
Until all on the altar we lay;
For the favor He shows,

for the joy He bestows,
Are for them who will trust and obey.

Then in fellowship sweet

We will sit at His feet.
Or we’ll walk by His side in the way.
What He says we will do,

Where He sends we will go;
Never fear, only trust and obey.

Trust and obey, for there’s no other way
To be happy in Jesus, but to trust and obey.

Because of All The Evil

Jeremiah 32:28-35 BSB (Berean Standard Bible)

“28Therefore this is what the LORD says: Behold, I am about to deliver this city into the hands of the Chaldeans and of Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon, who will capture it. 29And the Chaldeans who are fighting against this city will come in, set it on fire, and burn it, along with the houses of those who provoked Me to anger by burning incense to Baal on their rooftops and by pouring out drink offerings to other gods.

“30For the children of Israel and of Judah have done nothing but evil in My sight from their youth; indeed, they have done nothing but provoke Me to anger by the work of their hands, declares the LORD.

“31For this city has aroused My wrath and fury from the day it was built until now. Therefore I will remove it from My presence 32because of all the evil the children of Israel and of Judah have done to provoke Me to anger—they, their kings, their officials, their priests and prophets, the men of Judah, and the residents of Jerusalem. 33They have turned their backs to Me and not their faces. Though I taught them again and again, they would not listen or respond to discipline.

“34They have placed their abominations in the house that bears My Name, and so have defiled it. 35They have built the high places of Baal in the Valley of Ben-hinnom to make their sons and daughters pass through the fire to Molech—something I never commanded them, nor had it ever entered My mind, that they should commit such an abomination and cause Judah to sin.”

Parallels to Today

When I began to read this passage of Scripture today I immediately saw a parallel to the teachings in the book of Revelation having to do with the fall of Babylon (the harlot). For we read in Revelation 18 about Babylon (the harlot) and her many sins against God. She had become a home for demons, and a haunt for every unclean spirit, and every detestable beast, and the nations of the earth had drunk of her immorality, and her sins were piled up to heaven, and God had remembered her iniquities, and so she was to be consumed with fire. In a single hour she is to be destroyed.

And then I recalled the poem the Lord just had me post on the internet, which he gave me to write in March of 2018. For it was in reference to sin running amok within the walls of churches, the gospel truth facing so much disdain, men in pulpits making jokes about sacred things, compromising the truth of the Scriptures to appease human flesh. There is so much focus on worldly things, and so many pastors who are just actors playing their roles feeding lies to the people, entertaining the audience. Professing Christians are living in immorality, marriages are falling apart, but few seem to care.

And this largely describes the state of affairs in my nation (the USA), and within our government, and within many of the gatherings of the church (or what are falsely being referred to as “churches”). And I do believe that the government within my nation fits the description of “the harlot Babylon,” although I am certain this fits with other nations and their governments and their “churches,” as well, to a certain degree. But none have quite the power and influence over the rest of the world as does the government of my nation which is under the control of the One World Order “Beast.”

And I do believe that the USA, as a nation, but more specifically the government of my nation, is under the judgment of God the same as is described here in Jeremiah 32 and in Revelation 18. For the church at large in my nation has partnered with the world and united with the government in unholy unions, and so they have altered the gospel to make it more palatable to the ungodly and to human flesh, and they have rejected God’s requirements of repentance (turning from sin) and for obedience to His commands, and so many people are now believing the lies and not the truth.

The judgment of God is coming to the USA. It may already be here, too, in some forms and fashion. But the big heavy hit is on its way, in due time, in the timing of God. We can see it in the things being presented to us in the news, and in the alternate news, and just in general by the things going on in the world about us. So much is changing, and so fast. And so much is moving away from biblical Christianity and salvation from sin, and so many people are believing, living, and proclaiming the lies which send people to hell, and not to heaven. So pay attention. And obey God from now on.

An Overwhelming Sadness

Do you ever feel an overwhelming sadness?

All around you seems then to be so much pain.

Sin has run amok within the walls of churches.

For the gospel truth, there is so much disdain.

Men in pulpits hiding sins behind the curtain,

Making jokes about the sacred things of God.

For a laugh, they will compromise the Scriptures to

Keep the people coming back. Does this seem odd?

There is so much focus on the things so worldly.

Entertainment of the masses is the game:

Step on anyone who may oppose the circus;

On the innocent, then, cast on them the blame.

Where are all the godly men who’re called to lead us?

Does it seem to you they’ve all but disappeared?

In our pulpits, we have many who are actors,

Playing roles, they tell us lies; they do not care.

Does it seem to you, there is no one who’s honest?

That manipulating people is the scheme?

Building businesses, which Christians then call churches,

Is the purpose, and the passion, and the dream?

Have you noticed that the family is hurting?

And, that marriages are now suff’ring the same?

This is now a troubling crisis situation.

And, this calls for us to call on Jesus’ name.

We must pray for God to bring a great revival,

So to bring His people down upon their knees.

May they turn their hearts now back to faith in Jesus,

So that for Him they would live, and strive to please.

They Do Not Obey God's Voice

Jeremiah 32:21-24 BSB (Berean Standard Bible)

“21You brought Your people Israel out of the land of Egypt with signs and wonders, with a strong hand and an outstretched arm, and with great terror. 22You gave them this land that You had sworn to give their fathers, a land flowing with milk and honey.

“23They came in and possessed it, but they did not obey Your voice or walk in Your law. They failed to perform all that You commanded them to do, and so You have brought upon them all this disaster. 24See how the siege ramps are mounted against the city to capture it. And by sword and famine and plague, the city has been given into the hands of the Chaldeans who are fighting against it. What You have spoken has happened, as You now see!”

Introduction

The Lord is leading me today to use a real life physical situation in my life metaphorically to illustrate what this is talking about in this passage of Scripture. This is to be seen as a parable only to illustrate what this is teaching us above and not to be taken literally as a cause and effect in my own life situation. And I have had times in my life previously, a long time ago, when this could be applied to my life, but this is not one of them. So please understand that this is for illustrative purposes only. Thank you!

My Knee Went Out

The year was 2021. The month was August. My husband Rick and I had been busy helping our youngest son to get his house ready to sell, so we were not home much at all for a few months. We live in an apartment. The apartment adjacent to us was empty. Then we discovered mice feces in our drawers and cupboards, and under our sink and cabinets and dishwasher, refrigerator, and stove. And then we found the mice, too, and we killed them, and we set traps for them, and eventually they were all gone.

But in the process of dealing with all of this, and cleaning it all up, I got very ill. So I began to do some research, and I learned that my symptoms matched the diagnosis of “Hantavirus Pulmonary Syndrome.” But this was prime Covid time, and so many people were being put on ventilators at hospitals for respiratory issues, and many of them were dying. And the only solution they had for HPS, if this is what I had, was that exact treatment. So I decided if I was going to die that I would rather die at home. But I didn’t.

I am still here to write this. And I did start feeling better. But then in November of 2021, we went to the home of one of our children for a family Thanksgiving meal. I was still drained of physical energy. I went outside to take something to the car when my right leg went completely out from under me. I could not walk. So I sat down in the car to wait for my husband to come rescue me. And he took me home, and he had to help me to walk. And then I had to use a walker and eventually I got better, but not best.

Here we are in August of 2026, five years later, and the knee is still not best. It has not completely gone out on me again, but it is not fully functional, either. I still use a rollator (walker) when out in public because I lose my balance sometimes and sometimes I get dizzy, out of breath, and very fatigued. But the only solution any doctor has for this is physical therapy and/or taking drugs. The Lord led me to become pharmaceutical dependent free 18 years ago and PT just made matters much worse. So that’s out!

My dependency is fully in the Lord to see me through each day and to give me the strength and energy I need to do His will. My trust is in Him and not in man to “save” me. But I cannot do all the things I used to do before. But I am okay with that. I believe the Lord has me where He has me for a purpose, and my job each day is just to follow His lead, to write what He gives me to write, and to do the things He would have for me to do. And that also gives me time with my husband, children, and grandchildren, too.

The Parallel to The Scripture

The Lord brought the Israelites out of slavery in Egypt and He gave them a new place to live, as He promised. The Lord brought my husband and I out of our previous residence, and He gave us a new place to live. And spiritually speaking, the Lord provided the way for all to come out from our lives of living in sin, and He gave us a new place to live in communion with Him, in surrender to His will, in dying with Him to sin, and to now live to Him and to His righteousness in walks of obedience to His commands, by His grace.

My husband and I were not home much, for we were spending much time elsewhere. And because of that our kitchen began to be filled with mice feces. And mice are vermin, and vermin are like rats or cockroaches, for they can carry diseases. As people, they are dishonest, morally unclean, liars, fakes, and manipulative. And a kitchen is where food is prepared and eaten. And our spiritual food is the word of God. So this is about false teachers teaching lies. And the lies have the potential to bring about death.

Not being home much can indicate neglecting the Lord and His Word and obedience to Him. And our knees usually symbolize what we get down on in worship of God, which physically I can no longer do, but spiritually I am able. If we do not spiritually bow our knees to the Lord in worship of Him, that opens the door wide for these vermin (the false teachers and teachings) to enter into our relationships with the Lord, and so we end up eating spiritual food which has been compromised which can then lead to death.

But the people did not obey God’s voice. They did not walk in His law. They did not walk in the ways of the Lord in obedience to His commands. For they believed the lies of the enemy, instead. They were feeding on the vermin’s feces, metaphorically speaking, and so spiritually they got very ill. And the Lord allowed disaster to come upon them as He will upon us if we forsake the ways of the Lord, and if we eat the “vermin’s feces” instead of the truth of God’s word, and if our trust is in man and not in God to save us.

Over the past twenty five years, spiritually speaking, my dependency has been in the Lord more than it ever was before in my life. I have remained true to His word, and I have not rebelled against the Lord. There were times in my life before this when I could not say that, in truth. But the trials and tribulations of my life were instrumental to bringing me to this place. And, just as I do not depend on drugs and doctors to be my solution to my physical health, my trust is fully in the Lord to direct me in His ways.

As the Deer

By Martin J. Nystrom

Based off Psalm 42:1

As the deer panteth for the water

So my soul longeth after You

You alone are my heart's desire

And I long to worship You

You alone are my strength, my shield

To You alone may my spirit yield

You alone are my heart's desire

And I long to worship You

[A Prayer of Devotion to God Alone]

Old Covenant vs New Covenant

Jeremiah 31:31-34 BSB (Berean Standard Bible)

“31Behold, the days are coming, declares the LORD,

when I will make a new covenant

with the house of Israel

and with the house of Judah.

32It will not be like the covenant

I made with their fathers

when I took them by the hand

to lead them out of the land of Egypt—

a covenant they broke,

though I was a husband to them,”

declares the LORD.

33“But this is the covenant I will make with the house of Israel

after those days, declares the LORD.

I will put My law in their minds

and inscribe it on their hearts.

And I will be their God,

and they will be My people.

34No longer will each man teach his neighbor or his brother,

saying, ‘Know the LORD,’

because they will all know Me,

from the least of them to the greatest, declares the LORD.

For I will forgive their iniquities

and will remember their sins no more.”

The Old Covenant

Who were God’s people under the Old Covenant? They were the Jews. They were Israel. But not all of them were of genuine faith in God. Not all of them obeyed God and served Him as their Lord. They were Israel because they were physical descendants of Abraham. But many of them resisted the Lord, worshipped idols, lived in spiritual adultery, in sexual immorality, in revelry and drunkenness, and in stubbornness of mind and will. They did not bow to God as Lord, and many of them died and did not enter into God’s rest.

[See: 1 Corinthians 10:1-22; Hebrews 3:1-19; Hebrews 4:1-13; etc.]

Under the Old Covenant they were under a long list of liturgical, ceremonial, sacrificial, purification, circumcision, dietary, and Sabbath laws which we, under the New Covenant, do not have to obey. But they were also under God’s moral laws requiring repentance, submission to God as Lord, and faithfulness to the Lord in obedience to His commands, in holy living, in moral purity, in godliness, uprightness, and in righteousness. Under the New Covenant we must still obey God’s moral laws which did not go away.

The New Covenant

Under the New Covenant, God’s people are all people who are of biblical faith in Jesus Christ who have denied self, died to sin (repented of sin), and obeyed our Lord as a matter of life practice, and who are continuing to do so by the grace of God. We who were not born Jews by physical birth were grafted into biblical Israel (into Jesus Christ) and all Jews who rejected Jesus Christ as their Messiah were cut out of biblical Israel. But they can be grafted into Israel by faith in Jesus Christ, and together we are “All Israel.”

Israel Today: [Matthew 21:43; John 8:18-19,38-47; John 10:16; Romans 2:28-29; Romans 6:1-23; Romans 8:1-14; Romans 9:4-8,25-28; Romans 11:1-36; 1 Corinthians 3:16-17; 1 Corinthians 10:1-22; 2 Corinthians 6:14-18; Galatians 3:16,26-29; Galatians 4:22-31; Ephesians 2:11-22; Ephesians 3:1-6; Colossians 3:12-15; Titus 2:14; Hebrews 3:1-19; Hebrews 4:1-16; Hebrews 8:6-13; 1 Peter 2:9-10,24; 1 John 2:22; Jude 1:5; Revelation 2:9; Revelation 3:9; see also Genesis 17:7-9; Genesis 18:19]

Under the New Covenant, God, in the person of the Holy Spirit, comes to live within the lives of all who are of genuine biblical faith in Jesus Christ. So the Word of God is living within us, not just something we read in the Scriptures. We have the Holy Spirit living within us teaching, instructing, encouraging, counseling, leading, and guiding us in the ways of the Lord, directing our paths, cautioning us against making wrong choices and encouraging us in the ways of the Lord, empowering us to live holy lives in the power of God.

Who Knows The Lord?

So, if we are of genuine faith which saves, we have, by the grace of God, denied self, died to sin, and we are walking in obedience to our Lord and to His commands in life practice. So we know the Lord. It is not like under the Old Covenant where the people of God were His by physical birth, and when so many of them rejected the Lord and refused to obey Him. All of us who are of genuine biblical faith in the Lord Jesus know the Lord, so we don’t have to teach one another to know the Lord, if our faith is biblical faith.

Nonetheless, many profess faith in Jesus Christ based off lies they were taught, and their faith is not biblical, for they did not deny self, die to sin, and obey God in practice, but they continued in their deliberate and habitual sins and in disobedience to our Lord’s commands. So they do not know God and God does not know them. And they do not have salvation from sin nor eternal life with God guaranteed them because they did not submit to Him as Lord and follow in His ways, but they continued in their willful sins.

So, if you have not, by faith in Jesus Christ, died with Him to sin, and if you are not now, by the grace of God, walking in obedience to His commands, as a matter of life practice, then you do not know God. And this is not saying that we will never sin (1 John 2:1-2), but the Scriptures make it quite clear that if sin is our practice, our habit, and not obedience to our Lord, that no matter what our lips profess, we will not have salvation from sin nor eternal life with God. So make your heart right with God today while you still can.

Christ’s Free Servant, Sue J Love

Jesus, our Savior, reigneth forever;

Mighty in power, His name we honor.

He’s our refuge from all evil.

God our righteous, He’s our fill.

He satisfies us with all His blessings.

We magnify Him. Our praise to Him sing.

Glory and honor, praise to the Father,

Perfect in wisdom, He is our vision.

He delivered us from all sin

So, in Christ, we’d be forgiven.

He purifies us. His love will guide us.

He is beside us, holy and righteous.

Our Holy Spirit, comfort in sorrow,

Strength in our weakness, hope for tomorrow.

He gives courage to be bold in

Witnessing for Jesus Christ.

He teaches all things about our Savior.

New life in Jesus, we found His favor.
