2 Chronicles 36:11-21, Nebuchadnezzar and Jerusalem

Zedekiah at first submitted, but after a time, he allied himself with Egypt and rebelled against Nebuchadnezzar. Thus the fourth time the Babylonians came against Jerusalem, and after a siege of 2-1/2 years, the city fell (588 BC). Nebuchadnezzar by this time had had enough of the rebellions of the kings of Judah, and he removed the house of David from being king over them. It looked as if the promise of God to David had failed … but God’s promises fail not. God was not done, and this was not the last act on the stage of world history for either Judah or the prince of the house of David …!
Psalm 129, Meditation

Being YHVH’s chosen people (that’s me and you folks!) does not stop affliction from happening to us. It seems that instead, we become the special target of the wicked, and those who hate Zion, for affliction. However, if you are in the middle of affliction, take heart. They will not prevail against you, and the righteous God will cut in pieces the cords with which they are trying to bind you! ♥
James 5, Chiastic structure
Additional studies: James Index
Turn to prayer if any among you is suffering, or sick; but let your heart be cheerful and sing in the midst of your suffering:
“These things I have spoken to you, that in Me you may have peace. In the world you will have tribulation; but be of good cheer, I have overcome the world.” Joh 16:33
Why be cheerful and sing? Because the Lord, who loves us, has prepared our answer in advance. Because the effective, fervent prayer of the righteous avails much! Because prayer changes outcomes! I am singing today! ♥
