Jeremiah 42:10-12 10If [turning back from going into Egypt] ye will still abide in this land, then will I build you, and not pull you down, and I will plant you, and not pluck you up: for I repent me of the evil that I have done unto you. 11Be not afraid of the king of Babylon, of whom ye are afraid; be not afraid of him, saith the Lord: for I am with you to save you, and to deliver you from his hand. 12And I will shew mercies unto you, that he may have mercy upon you, and cause you to return to your own land.
That same promise was made in Micah 4:9-10 9Now why dost thou cry out aloud? is there no king in thee? is thy counsellor perished? for pangs have taken thee as a woman in travail. 10Be in pain, and labour to bring forth, O daughter of Zion, like a woman in travail: for now shalt thou go forth out of the city, and thou shalt dwell in the field, and thou shalt go even to Babylon; there shalt thou be delivered; there the Lord shall redeem thee from the hand of thine enemies.
The woman in travail are the true believers during this time of great tribulation. God typifies the body of believers as a woman in Revelation 12.
Ezekiel 4:4-6 4Lie thou also upon thy left side, and lay the iniquity of the house of Israel upon it: according to the number of the days that thou shalt lie upon it thou shalt bear their iniquity. 5For I have laid upon thee the years of their iniquity, according to the number of the days, three hundred and ninety days: so shalt thou bear the iniquity of the house of Israel. 6And when thou hast accomplished them, lie again on thy right side, and thou shalt bear the iniquity of the house of Judah forty days: I have appointed thee each day for a year.
Numbers 14:32-33 32But as for you, your carcases, they shall fall in this wilderness. 33And your children shall wander in the wilderness forty years, and bear your whoredoms, until your carcases be wasted in the wilderness. 34After the number of the days in which ye searched the land, even forty days, each day for a year, shall ye bear your iniquities, even forty years, and ye shall know my breach of promise.
Thus, we have Biblical validation for substituting a day for a year or vice versa. Amazingly, when we jump 1,290 years from Jacob's affliction, which occurred in 1877 B.C., we land on 587 B.C. What happened that year? There was a physical famine, in that the Babylonians had laid siege to Jerusalem, allowing nothing to leave or come in. Ultimately Babylon destroyed Jerusalem with fire, and took Daniel and Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego captive to Babylon. And even as God cared for Jacob and his family in the land of Egypt, so God was with Daniel and the others taken captive to Babylon. God had made a promise in Jeremiah 42:10.
Our current situation is grave, but not over whelming; because our GOD is sovereign, omnipotent, omniscient, and omnipresent. Jeremiah waited 10 days, Daniel waited 21 days. We Saints shall wait patiently for the LORD and HIS answer.
May we be faithful in our SAVIOR, the LORD JESUS CHRIST, as we wait. We are called to be fruitful in our carrying out HIS desire for us. To make disciples Matthew 28: 18-20; to pray for those in authority 1 Timothy 2:1-3; submit ourselves to GOD and resist the devil James 4: 7, 8.
GOD to shine HIS face on all the saints and bless us that we may also be a
Thank you Gigi for your prayers and thoughts. I would also like to add the families of our first responders. God give them grace, comfort, and peace as they await their loved ones out in the field.
David, I agree in prayer with You as we pray for our elected leaders, Mr. Putin and Mr. Zelinski. Lord Jesus, bring Your salvation to each person David mentions here. This is what is needed above all other things. Lord, we continue to ask You to end this invasion of Ukraine. Turn Putin around and send him back home to Russia.
We also pray for our first responders in our cities and towns. Protect them from criminals who wish to harm them or kill them. Have those who wish to do this to them be apprehended before anyone gets killed. We pray for firefighters, also. Lord, we ask that You eliminate any wildfires that are burning now. We ask that You keep wildfires from erupting all over our nation this Spring-Fall. Give our firefighters courage and protection whenever they go to fight a fire. Give them cool heads and skilled hands in treating those who are injured and in need of emergency treatment by them and paramedics. We ask that You will help all who work to keep our cities and towns safe. For all of these things, Lord, we ask that You hear our prayers and answer. We ask in Your name Jesus, knowing that You are more than able to give the best answers. Amen.
Thank You Lord for being a patient God. Our prayer is for our POTUS Biden, VPOTUS Harris, President Putin. May they desire to be saved in name of the Lord Jesus Christ.
Lord shine Your countenance upon us. Please bless the men and women out in the streets as our first responses. Thank You Lord for your promises as we learn to trust and obey You at all times.

Hebrews 13:17
Obey them (CHURCH) that have the rule over you, and submit yourselves: for they watch for your souls, as they that must give account, that they may do it with joy, and not with grief: for that is unprofitable for you.
Wesley's Notes for Hebrews 13:17
Obey them that have the rule over you - The word implies also, that lead or guide you; namely, in truth and holiness. And submit yourselves - Give up (not your conscience or judgment, but) your own will, in all things purely indifferent. For they watch over your souls - With all zeal and diligence, they guard and caution you against all danger. As they that must give account.
People's Bible Notes for Hebrews 13:17
Obey them that have the rule over you. Your elders or bishops. For they watch for your souls. Give them deference on this account, and because they must give account to the Master of those committed to their trust.
Jeremiah 42:6
Whether it be good, or whether it be evil, we will obey the voice of the LORD our God, to whom we send thee; that it may be well with us, when we OBEY the voice of the LORD our God.
Hebrews 5
8 Though he were a Son, yet learned he obedience by the things which he suffered;
9 And being made perfect, he became the author of eternal salvation unto all them that OBEY HIM.
10 Called of God an high priest after the order of Melchisedec.
COMMENT: What the President is doing is illegal. He has lawsuits pending against him.
Practice safety and cleanliness. Lepers in the Old Testament we're avoided. Covid is not leprosy. It is a PESTILENCE ( Matthew 24). Avoid sick people till they recover. JESUS STILL HEALS THE SICK.
People mis-quote that scripture and say: Obey the Government. That's why I posted all this. Obey your Pastor, Teachers, Church.
I got a shot before it was discovered what is in it. I would've refused had anyone told the truth. I'm 70. I prayed for the Lord to forgive me. Lesson learned. We must obey God.

Romans 8:28 basically states that the plan of God will be done through His "elect" children.
God also utilizes Satan's children to bring about His perfect plan, look at Isaiah 10:5, 19:25, Jeremiah 42:18, etc.
The "elect" children of God concerns "predestination," look at Romans 8:29-30, 1 Corinthians 2:7, Ephesians 1:5, 11.
Predestination has to do with understanding that there are 3 earth and heaven ages spoken of in the word of God, 2 Peter 3:5-6 speaks of the 1st dispensation of time; 2 Peter 3:7 speaks of the 2nd dispensation of time; and 2 Peter 3:13 speaks of the 3rd dispensation of time.)
The 1st earth and heaven age ended due to the fall of Satan, and is recorded in Genesis 1:1-2. The earth BECAME without form and void; God did not make it that way!
The 2nd earth and heaven age came into being when the spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters and God said Let there be Light ( Genesis 1:2-3)
The 3rd earth and heaven age is what all children of God look forward to.
God "did foreknow" ( Rom 8:29) each and every one of us because we were all there in the 1st Dispensation of time.
Jeremiah was (foreordained) a prophet BEFORE he was born ( Jeremiah 1:5).
God hated Esau BEFORE he was born because Esau despised his (birth)-right and (likely) followed Satan in the 1st earth age ( Genesis 25:32-34, Malachi 1:3, Romans 9:13, Hebrews 12:16)
THIS people, who feign themselves humble and seeking the LORD, but have already set their minds upon the fantasies of their own hearts instead of having a true and understanding heart, or to at all be converted and to obey and fear the voice of the LORD; even they shall be the cause for this whole Nation to perish; because they know not me and do not seek me, saith the LORD; and I know not them.
Some people will ask for Godly advise just for a show -- if it agrees with their decision, they will follow, but if it disagrees, they will follow their decision anyhow. God judges on the heart, they think they can fool God.
Jeremiah waited for 10 days, to receive a word from the Lord for the people.
He waited patiently, and the word came.
Today, we're so impatient with God, it is "God, now or never!"
We can take a cue from Jeremiah.
If we wait patiently on God when it comes to sensitive issues, God would lead and we won't make mistakes.

The woman in travail are the true believers during this time of great tribulation. God typifies the body of believers as a woman in Revelation 12.
