Excuses. Everyone has one. We make excuses to cover our mistakes. We also make excuses in order to shift the blame from us to someone else. Sometimes we make excuses because we do not believe that we are capable or able to complete a task, We even make excuses to God when we disobey Him, thinking somehow that He will believe our excuse. When Jeremiah made an excuse to prove to God that he could not possibly do what God was asking him to do, God’s response to Jeremiah was very telling. He told him to never use that excuse. Instead, Jeremiah was to do what God instructed him to do, and He assured Jeremiah that He would be with Him. Wow! What a promise. Today, God tells you the same thing. Stop the excuses. God is with you, and will help you in that endeavor. He will not leave you nor forsake you. He qualifies you for the task. Go in His strength and might. Never limit yourself again. You are His ambassador and He goes with you!
Jeremiah 1: 6-8 “Then said I: “Ah, Lord God! Behold, I cannot speak, for I am a youth.” But the Lord said to me: “Do not say, ‘I am a youth,’ For you shall go to all to whom I send you, And whatever I command you, you shall speak. Do not be afraid of their faces, For I am with you to deliver you,” says the Lord”.
Amen!
Amen amen
