Day 11: Jeremiah
10:1-25
No one is like You, Lord; You are great, and Your name is mighty in
power (Jeremiah 10:6, NIV).
What
have you put your trust in? Is it in people, money, yourself, your horoscope to
tell you what the future holds for you, or is it in God? The irony with the
people of Judah is that they were worshipping the very things that God created
instead of worshipping Him. It’s easy to get to a place where we look to the
things that God has created and we put our trust in them simply because they’re
tangible instead of putting it in God. We must understand that anything we put
our trust in other than God will always be a counterfeit and it will never
produce the results that God can. Instead of looking to everything else for
answers, turn to God and allow Him to direct your paths. Jeremiah asked God to
show him the way and to discipline him for his own good but he asked that God
not do it in His wrath because he understand the power of God (v. 24). God is
willing to lead and guide us but we must be willing to move our feet. He will
not force Himself onto anyone but He will willingly guide those who want to be
guided. However, He cannot do this if we are putting any and everything before
Him and seeking out every other source but the Source for answers. In order to
be devoted to God we must learn to seek Him wholeheartedly and stop running to
other things and people that we have immediate access to. Put your trust in the
Creator, not the creations.
