THE BOOK OF JEREMIAH LIFE LESSONS IN PLANS AND PURPOSES

Original Link INTRODUCTION Mon peuple, Mon peuple In terms of my earlier writings I told you I would pick up after my flight from Wyoming. I had to return to Denver, Colorado. The last part of my trip is like a whirlwind because of the transportation situation. There are really three main transportation hubs in the North of the United States outside of New York. They are Chicago, Illinois, Minneapolis, Minnesota and Columbus, Ohio. I have been through all three in terms of bus transportation. I also went through Cincinnati, Ohio at one point. Before I transitioned into Canada. I went to South Dakota. I can't seem to remember much about this State. I used the map of the United States to jog my memory and discovered that all I did was pass through Sioux Falls. I did Omaha City, Omaha. They gave me so many problems with transportation and fare that I forgot to go look at Warren Buffet’s house.Then I did Des Moines, Iowa. There were some nice outlet cities in this city. This is where I started to try and post my money. Headed to Minnesota, Illinois and then my bags were stolen in Jackson, Michigan which I explain below.People if you have not realized by now this will help you in your travels. It does not matter how big the city is, they are all based on the European model. I suppose I will find the same thing in Africa. This model says most major government buildings are located within a five mile radius e.g I am in Toronto within that radius starting with the City Hall, in fact they have two, an old and a new almost side by side. You have the courthouse, the major theatre, ballet opera etc. You have the police Headquarters, you always have a library, the major bank, the major supermarket and the bus terminal or Central station. Always! Sometimes you will find the hospital or University as in the case of Toronto because it has the space. But the hospital and university are never far off. In the United States if you want to know a city, get the location of four Walmarts, the one in the east, west, north and south then you will know the major transportation system and the city. That is how I got to know Des Moines, Salt Lake City and Billings Montana, quickly. I found the Walmarts. The reason why is out of the scope of this Blog. Just know it is for economic purposes. A lot of businesses cannot compete against the Walmart model, only the Dollar Stores. I decided that before I do anything else I am going to exercise my squatters rights and get you people caught up on some of my activities and put some of your minds at ease by indicating that I am okay and I am really anticipating 2021. I have been anticipating it since 2017! Lord help my Holy Ghost! People I do not even remember where I left you because the main job of the Nazis and Mafias have been to shut me down at all cause. I am going to have to fill in the details as we go along but I want to pick up with you in Jackson, Michigan. I tell you I am typing and the peeping toms on the computer cannot even wait for me to develop the story. Anyway the Greyhound bus drove away with my bags. They could not believe their luck because I did not leave the bus without taking my bag with all my documents. This time because it was an official Greyhound bus terminal I just took my food bag to look for something to eat. I was careless because when I was in Chicago they did a simulation of the same thing, driving away with a young man’s bags. I keep telling you people in all of this the only mistake I keep making is to underestimate the integrity of criminals. As I hit the bathroom, the black woman in the office at the Jackson bus station closed the bathroom door. She just called out informing me that the bus was going away. It was all planned and beautifully executed. In order to continue stealing my money and using my accounts for money laundering they now have an original copy of my birth certificate and my citizenship certificate from Canada. However, let me continue. They sent another criminal bus service, Miller's, in the night with one black criminal passenger in the bus and charged me an additional US$32 to get to Detroit. I just paid it and cursed the two of them and told them that they were all criminals and that I had a knife if they planned to do anything. The first five rows in the bus were locked down because they had their plans. I just sat at row number three and told them I had no intention of sleeping until I reached heaven (I just added the last part; it sounds nice). The finer details are for the book or blog like I had to stand in the cold and pray from 6 p.m. to 11:00 p.m. until the Miller’s crooks bus came. I went to the Jackson Police department twice to report my bags stolen and they did not even push out their heads. Since I knew the genesis of the criminality was from Germany I just walked away singing. Germany I shifted my prayer. Now I tell no one who I am praying for. Not after those fools in Ethiopia. Damn fools! I really rate the Nigerians. They have gotten a whole lot of you to do foolishness.What do they do ? Tell you all that they have an inside line to King Abdullah of Saudi Arabia? I believe them. The only inside line is a line to the Holy Spirit. This question came to mind, I wonder how much they offered Dr. Myles Munroe to become a Muslim? It is rhetorical!! Moving right along people! Detroit was something else. As soon as I reached there the border closed but there were vehicles going through. The reason I took this route and not a plane was because I wanted to go through the tunnel from Detroit to Windsor, Ontario. Bad choice!! Now people wanted me to stay in Detroit. I had to go to the Walmart to book my ticket at which time they changed my destination from Ontario, Canada to Ontario, California. Damn crooked #Caucasians! I ended up having to pay an additional US four hundred dollars to retrace my steps. Me again people, very careless!! Attention to details!! People expected me to be angry. I just kept asking for a Bible no one had any to offer. That is why I do my devotion every morning before making a step because my enemies are more than the hairs on my head especially now that they are removing most of my hair. Many times it is because of the guidance of the Holy Spirit why I just jump over every trap that has been set for me. In Ontario, California they had everything laid for me to leave the Airport. I said I am not moving one foot from here. I have already done California. I do not want to live in the USA. In Detroit on my way to the Airport after booking my flight they stole my knife and my bowl of soup and biscuits out of my bag. When I reached Detroit the Greyhound people evicted me off their compound. I went back for my bags before I left they had a white liar telling me I had to return to Jackson. People, I have enough sins in order not to have too much I just kept my mouth shut and left the integrityless white people and their place and just forward the case to the higher judge. In all of this I was grateful that the little black fellow who really should deal with the matter refused to lie to me. May God help him and his generations going forward. I ended up buying a Bible in Salt Lake City, Utah. They were tired of me going around asking in every book store if they sold Bibles. It was one ugly pink thing. I have been saving up my money and waiting until this is all over to get me another Thomson Chain Reference Study Bible leather bound with black, brown or burgundy cover. My Bible is a serious tool, nothing frivolous about it. I do not need a pink Bible to know that I am a woman. Suffice it to say that my second night at the Toronto Pearson Airport the Pakistani and Indians stole it. One Pakistani Security guard came to harass me in the middle of my devotion in Terminal Three and in my hurry to get away from the Lesbian I forgot my Bible in the bathroom. I normally use a book to block up the sensor that automatically flushes the toilet or it will flush every two minutes.Hence, the reason for my Bible not being among my things. It was covering the toilet sensor. Fifteen minutes after I asked another security guard about it he told me no one saw it, US$27 stolen. Another theft in Canada. Anyway people, I have to tell you this, during my flight I decided to go back to the original Raphleta. I decided to play Chess and Sudoku. I started with some brain teasers. The plane looked like a Boeing 737, very spacious with video displays. When I started playing Chess some of the Air Waiters came out and looked at me. By the time I reached the Sudoku game which had three levels. I started at the middle level and did it in a little over seven minutes. Then the Air waiters came and looked at me again. Then I moved to the hardest level. By the time I made a couple of mathematical moves the Air Waiters came again to look at me. May I tell you why they kept coming? As usual the criminals had decided to evaluate me while I was flying. Obviously mad people do not play Chess and Sudoku. Me, myself and I have been doing it for years. On the return journey in order to lock me down on the leg from Salt Lake City to Toronto they changed the plane to a smaller version with no video displays. I laughed throughout the whole flight with the little white lady in her black and white socks beside me, looking at me. In Canada, I decided to use the library services to start putting my files together and continued to try and get a computer. The conclusion to that is that the Brampton Library went under partial lock down going back to curbside services. Mississauga Library was only giving me one hour and they did everything to cut that in half. They ran down the time, slowed down the computer and blocked most of my screens. I had to write a complaint and advise them that I walked out of the Brampton Library because of their foolishness. Can you imagine people? I am there using the computer and the crooks and criminals decided to send a foul smelling white guy to sit in front of me. I said enough, was enough and left!! Plus the Library staff and these Chinese termites give one no peace anywhere. Since I had already demonstrated in Brampton, Mississauga and Toronto I decided to just move on to the next set of Canadian terrorists in Ottawa. Lord help my Holy Ghost! In fact Toronto brought out the different bus services the first day I demonstrated. After filing my lawsuit against the Toronto Police at the Small Claims Court I just left. The people at the courthouse were another treat after I entered the building and was on the third floor. They are giving me a COVID questionnaire after they had abandoned their positions deliberately because they did not want to give me any information. I filled it out and returned it at the end of the day as per the information on the form. I decided to go say hi to my brother Jack and told him no hard feelings and I wish him all the best for the New Year. I tell you it snowed so hard I just decided to stop at the Fairview Mall and shelter. I had a serious prayer session. I took on the thieving spirits which were molesting me. I had one lady offer me a fifty dollar bill. I told her thanks but no thanks I am well taken care of. I am realizing that people are trying to use money to bind me up. She placed it on me. I didn't even touch it. I dropped it right where she gave me. Eventually the owners came for it. I have been having some serious reflections on the spirit of mammon. I have seen people do some things for money. The guys on the motivational circle would always say one of the first things you need to have worked out is your money philosophy. I now realize what they are talking about. The next day at around eleven I moved. Seems St. Catharines does not have a budget for removing snow because except for a few places all the snow was still on the road. I gingerly made my way to Mr. Taylor. I must stop here and say that is one of the things to be admired about Mississauga. When it comes to the removal of snow they are on the ball. I have never had a traffic hold up because of snow on the road in Mississauga. They need to teach the USA how it is done. A little snow fell. The next thing I know the road is closed, traffic jams, the bus is not moving and all the snow is still on the road. Happened to me in New Mexico. Well Mr. Taylor did not want to see me but I was able to get a shower and launder my one suit of clothes. Looks like the crooks placed some chemicals to shrink my clothes, especially my stockings. By the time a little fellow who is a sperm donor turned up I was ready to leave because Mr. Taylor was being very unco-operative and since I did not want him to be harassed any further I left, gingerly making my way through the mounds of snow on the road. I returned to Toronto and the next day attempted to make my way to Ottawa via Via Rail. At Union Station there were no machines to buy your tickets so I promptly took a Go Train to Oshawa to buy a ticket from the machine not realizing that the corrupt Canadians had taken out all the machines. Why did I go through so much trouble? The last time I bought a ticket the crooks overcharged me by CAN$29. Here the story gets very interesting. I reached early and had to wait a little over one hour, one hour for the cashiers to open and the next fifteen or so minutes for the train. There was a Walmart nearby that I remember from my previous experience. I got a bus to the Walmart which was about fifteen minutes in all. Of course the dishonest white driver did not give me my transfer, mouthing some foolishness about COVID-19. I just ignored him. I tell you people my salvation is precious to me, I cannot waste it on dishonest white people. I was almost at the bus stop when you know the bus had to turn up early and I missed it. This meant that I would miss the train. Not a problem, I got a ride to the bridge from the next bus and then began to walk. Their snow was not so bad. I had walked for about five minutes when the Holy Spirit said to me finally, Raphleta I have got you to myself. You have been so busy. He just started linking events for me! Yes, Raphleta the flight that you saw on the arrivals board at Terminal 3 Pearson International from Montego Bay to Toronto, the fact that the PM of Canada had come out in support of Jamaica, the fact that the Consulate in Toronto had only confirmed that they have received your email to cancel your passport without giving you a proper reply, they are all linked to your stolen passport which is being used to steal your money and launder money. I said what? And dropped my bags in the snow! Then he started to link up more things for me. I took up my bags and said thank you Holy Spirit! I began to step strongly! When I was almost near the train station there blocking my way were some criminals sent by the top brass. Ah sey tell the Jamaican criminals dem sey fi cancel mi passport dem nah use my documents fi teef any more money and unuh move outta mi way unuh damn crooks di whole ah unuh!! Tell di Jamaican politicians dem fi gi up criminality if dem nuh rich yet and dem a teef suh long dem might as well gi up now and I walked and went to book for the next train to Ottawa. Interpretation - I said tell the Jamaican criminals to cancel my passport and not use my documents to steal any more money. Remove yourselves out of my way, you are all crooks. Tell the Jamaican Politicians to give up criminality. If they have been stealing all this time and they are not rich as yet. They will never be rich. The train ride was the next treat. They actually lengthened the journey by disabling a CN Rail train on the track. We had to turn back. Instead of reaching 5:00 p.m. we reached 7:00 p.m. Thanks to the brilliance of the crooked and criminal Chinese. They had me surrounded in the train. This was supposed to be another evaluation session. When I realized what was taking place I just wrote on a piece of paper ‘DAMN WHITE CRIMINAL’ and showed it to the Whiteman who was sitting opposite me and was supposed to be evaluating me. I then continued to read my case and make my jottings. Then I did my devotion and read the Bible that someone placed in the Chapel at Pearson Airport from House of Praise with the Winners receipt in it and the couple scriptures marked in the Psalms and paid the whole crooked lot of them no mind. This time they only served dry biscuits. I almost laughed. When we reached the train station in Ottawa the police were present. I had to say to myself. No wonder there is so much criminality in the world. It is the criminals who are in charge of the police and army. They had them steal my bags and now because they cannot get me illegally they are trying to intimidate me. Thus far I have demonstrated twice once while it was snowing. One of my placard says: CORRUPT CANADIAN AND JAMAICAN CRIMINALS CANCEL MY STOLEN PASSPORTS ET AL STOP STEALING MONEY AND USING MY ACS FOR MONEY LAUNDERING TRUDEAU/MENDOCINO HOLNESS/SMITH-JOHNSON After the first demonstration I went to the Rideau Centre to use the bathroom, all the different tribes were waiting for me. I ignored everyone! Then the Nigerian turned up speaking on the top of her voice and rebuking demons in the name of Jesus. I ignored her and started singing to drown out her conversation. After she left I said but Daddy my passports are Jamaican and Canadian. I have no GREEN PASSPORT, why are the Nigerians trying to woo me? If they are the one stealing my money all they have to do is replace it. Anyway, I decided that after a number of attempts to get proper accommodation I would not be letting the new year catch me without proper shelter. The last attempt to rent somewhere the Whiteman had me standing around thirty minutes in the cold waiting to be picked up and taken to a prospective location. He had me like Oliver Samuels would say walking off mi (my) boot heel! I decided I would just book into a hotel. Since the process was seamless in the USA. I thought it would be the same thing in Canada. Oh Canada!! The thing the crooks and criminals are using against me is the fact that I do not have a credit Card. I only have debit or cash. If I do not have either? I do not flow. Suffice it to say after about ten attempts I ended up at Holiday Inn in Kanata. I was looking forward to presenting my bill to you for the $329 per room at Chateau Laurier but when I reached there to pay my money they changed their mind about over charging me and ran me out of the hotel. I had to give the young man a lesson in integrity. I said ‘Do not try to turn me into a liar just say that you have changed your mind.’ I was willing to pay $1,000 per night just to get some peace and quiet going into the new year. When I left the Chateau Laurier the Nazis and Mafias sent one Whiteman to harass me. I went into him like the ‘Bananaman’. I was not very gentle. He called me racist. I said you have not seen anything yet, come near me and I will slash your throat. He called me a bitch etc! I said bring it on. We were at the stoplights white people right beside me and white people on the other side observing us. I just shouted and said the best stress reliever cursing white people better than tobacco, drugs and alcohol rolled into one and went on my way to Kanata. They gave me a double bedroom with many mirrors and charged me $308for two nights and a $250 deposit refundable. The first night they turned off the internet at 10:30 p.m. This is the time I was just getting into my stride. I had just completed downloading the The Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedom to go answer the law student who wanted to throw out my case because he said it was frivolous and vexatious to the spirit. The internet person wanted me to give him the IP address. I ignored him and hung up!! Then they violated my presence by entering my room when I was sleeping. The Chinese and Germans continuously sprinkling powder on my feet to get them to swell. One of my feet is bigger than the other. I nearly lost both my feet because they slit the little toe on my right foot and then they put poison in the corn cushions I placed on my toes. I nearly lost my toe. I had to pray for my feet back to life. Then the chemical that the Germans placed on my feet is more deadly than that of the Chinese, Pakistanis and Indians. It just removed my epidermis. Now they are injecting me with foreign substances because I am not swelling to the size they want. Now do you see why good people for example in California have nothing to do with these people. Well people, I have bought a computer which I do not control. Through many toils and snares I have typed this FB post. The system has been shut down on me a number of times. The best picture I have of what took place is this cartoon by Clovis. I would use the different ethnicities, flags and clothing. 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏⚔⚔⚔⚔⚔⚔⚔😎😎😎😎😎😎😎🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥😇😇😇🌏🌏🌏😏😏😏 JAMAICAOBSERVER.COM Saturday, December 26, 2020 Add to Your Post REFLECTIONS What can I say, people now that I am in the Book of Jeremiah. I am enjoying it so much I even listen to it on Audio Bible King James Version reading by Alexander Scourby. I tell you people I thought I had seen Spiritual Warfare. I realized that I had just had a taste. The touching of this book of Jeremiah seems to be serious higher level warfare. After I had rewritten February’s Blog then my notes reappeared. I ignored them! They have all disappeared again.We continue to thank Daddy for the Spirit of completion.

Realization of judgment on Judah and Jerusalem 36-45 Chapter 36 The Scroll Read in the Temple This is a very interesting chapter. This is where Jeremiah was thrown in prison and King Zedekiah the tattooed fornicator burnt his scroll piece by piece. Verses 1 - 2 Instructions from God to Write When I started to keep my journal I just heard,’ Raphleta start writing down your experiences.’ 1 And it came to pass in the fourth year of Jehoiakim the son of Josiah king of Judah, that this word came unto Jeremiah from the Lord, saying, 2 Take thee a roll of a book, and write therein all the words that I have spoken unto thee against Israel, and against Judah, and against all the nations, from the day I spake unto thee, from the days of Josiah, even unto this day. Verse 4 Baruch the Scribe 4 Then Jeremiah called Baruch the son of Neriah: and Baruch wrote from the mouth of Jeremiah all the words of the Lord, which he had spoken unto him, upon a roll of a book. Verses 5 - 6 Baruch Sent 5 And Jeremiah commanded Baruch, saying, I am shut up; I cannot go into the house of the Lord: 6 Therefore go thou, and read in the roll, which thou hast written from my mouth, the words of the Lord in the ears of the people in the Lord's house upon the fasting day: and also thou shalt read them in the ears of all Judah that come out of their cities. Verses 9 - 10 Jeremiah Read During the Time of Fasting 9 And it came to pass in the fifth year of Jehoiakim the son of Josiah king of Judah, in the ninth month, that they proclaimed a fast before the Lord to all the people in Jerusalem, and to all the people that came from the cities of Judah unto Jerusalem. 10 Then read Baruch in the book the words of Jeremiah in the house of the Lord, in the chamber of Gemariah the son of Shaphan the scribe, in the higher court, at the entry of the new gate of the Lord's house, in the ears of all the people. All the people heard the word. Michaiah heard the words and told the princes and scribes and some other people. The Princes then sent for Baruch to read in their presence. You know how royalty loves to summon people. If I summon you I am just exercising my right as a royal. Lord help my Holy Ghost!! We pick up the chapter there. The Scroll Read in the Palace Verses 14 - 16 First Reading in the Palace Those of you who are saying that no black people are in the Bible Jehudi was of the lineage of Cush. We have already spoken about the Ethiopians!! We have passed the gentle Jesus meek and mild stage people. It is now time for black people to rightly divide the word of TRUTH!! 14 Therefore all the princes sent Jehudi the son of Nethaniah, the son of Shelemiah, the son of Cushi, unto Baruch, saying, Take in thine hand the roll wherein thou hast read in the ears of the people, and come. So Baruch the son of Neriah took the roll in his hand, and came unto them. 15 And they said unto him, Sit down now, and read it in our ears. So Baruch read it in their ears. 16 Now it came to pass, when they had heard all the words, they were afraid both one and other, and said unto Baruch, We will surely tell the king of all these words. Verse 19 Princes Advise Baruch and Jeremiah to Go into Hiding 19 Then said the princes unto Baruch, Go, hide thee, thou and Jeremiah; and let no man know where ye be. Verse 21- 23 The King Destroys Jeremiah’s Scroll As I was praying by Rouge Hill the other night after I had written the statement at verse 14. It would not leave me. In fact, it was expanded. I was reminded that Jehudi was right there in the palace reading to the King. I cast my mind back to Simon of Cyrene who carried the cross of Jesus St. Luke 23 verse 26. This was not an accident that is black people’s territory, this is the Middle East everybody would mix and mingle. The fact that he was chosen was divine, not an accident. I tell you we black people have really been brainwashed. We need to get back to our place of dominion in our surroundings and world. Yul Brenner is now dead. Let us see if they are going to have any more shows with Pharaohs. He was a compromise for the real thing. 21 So the king sent Jehudi to fetch the roll: and he took it out of Elishama the scribe's chamber. And Jehudi read it in the ears of the king, and in the ears of all the princes which stood beside the king. 22 Now the king sat in the winterhouse in the ninth month: and there was a fire on the hearth burning before him. 23 And it came to pass, that when Jehudi had read three or four leaves, he cut it with the penknife, and cast it into the fire that was on the hearth, until all the roll was consumed in the fire that was on the hearth. Verse 26 The Lord Hid Jeremiah from the King 26 But the king commanded Jerahmeel the son of Hammelech, and Seraiah the son of Azriel, and Shelemiah the son of Abdeel, to take Baruch the scribe and Jeremiah the prophet: but the Lord hid them. Verses 27 - 28 Jeremiah Rewrites the Scroll 27 Then the word of the Lord came to Jeremiah, after that the king had burned the roll, and the words which Baruch wrote at the mouth of Jeremiah, saying, 28 Take thee again another roll, and write in it all the former words that were in the first roll, which Jehoiakim the king of Judah hath burned.. Verses 30 - 31 Judgment on Jehoiakim king of Judah and his Family Note verse 30 is prophetic. So said so done! 30 Therefore thus saith the Lord of Jehoiakim king of Judah; He shall have none to sit upon the throne of David: and his dead body shall be cast out in the day to the heat, and in the night to the frost. 31 And I will punish him and his seed and his servants for their iniquity; and I will bring upon them, and upon the inhabitants of Jerusalem, and upon the men of Judah, all the evil that I have pronounced against them; but they hearkened not. Verse 32 Scroll Rewritten 32 Then took Jeremiah another roll, and gave it to Baruch the scribe, the son of Neriah; who wrote therein from the mouth of Jeremiah all the words of the book which Jehoiakim king of Judah had burned in the fire: and there were added besides unto them many like words. Chapter 37 Zedekiah's Vain Hope After ignoring the commands of God, King Zedekiah who was reigning instead of his nephew Coniah sought prayer from Jeremiah. Humanity has not changed; we want things from God without obeying Him. Verse 3 King Zedekiah asked Jeremiah for Prayer I am wondering if the Zepheniah mentioned in this verse is the same one who wrote the book of Zephaniah. Zephaniah the black prophet people Zephaniah 1 verse 1. These are the things you do not learn at Bible school. You might ask too many questions. 3 And Zedekiah the king sent Jehucal the son of Shelemiah and Zephaniah the son of Maaseiah the priest to the prophet Jeremiah, saying, Pray now unto the Lord our God for us. Verse 4 Jeremiah was a Free Man at that time 4 Now Jeremiah came in and went out among the people: for they had not put him into prison. Verses 7 - 10 Jeremiah Predicts Defeat 7 Thus saith the Lord, the God of Israel; Thus shall ye say to the king of Judah, that sent you unto me to enquire of me; Behold, Pharaoh's army, which is come forth to help you, shall return to Egypt into their own land. 8 And the Chaldeans shall come again, and fight against this city, and take it, and burn it with fire. 9 Thus saith the Lord; Deceive not yourselves, saying, The Chaldeans shall surely depart from us: for they shall not depart. 10 For though ye had smitten the whole army of the Chaldeans that fight against you, and there remained but wounded men among them, yet should they rise up every man in his tent, and burn this city with fire. Verses 13 - 14 Jeremiah Accosted 13 And when he was in the gate of Benjamin, a captain of the ward was there, whose name was Irijah, the son of Shelemiah, the son of Hananiah; and he took Jeremiah the prophet, saying, Thou fallest away to the Chaldeans. 14 Then said Jeremiah, It is false; I fall not away to the Chaldeans. But he hearkened not to him: so Irijah took Jeremiah, and brought him to the princes. Verses 15 - 16 Jeremiah Struck and Imprisoned 15 Wherefore the princes were wroth with Jeremiah, and smote him, and put him in prison in the house of Jonathan the scribe: for they had made that the prison. 16 When Jeremiah was entered into the dungeon, and into the cabins, and Jeremiah had remained there many days; Verse 17 King Zedekiah Seeks a Prophecy 17 Then Zedekiah the king sent, and took him out: and the king asked him secretly in his house, and said, Is there any word from the Lord? And Jeremiah said, There is: for, said he, thou shalt be delivered into the hand of the king of Babylon. Verses 18 - 20 Jeremiah Pleads for Mercy 18 Moreover Jeremiah said unto king Zedekiah, What have I offended against thee, or against thy servants, or against this people, that ye have put me in prison? 19 Where are now your prophets which prophesied unto you, saying, The king of Babylon shall not come against you, nor against this land? 20 Therefore hear now, I pray thee, O my lord the king: let my supplication, I pray thee, be accepted before thee; that thou cause me not to return to the house of Jonathan the scribe, lest I die there. Verse 21 Jeremiah Fed Bread 21 Then Zedekiah the king commanded that they should commit Jeremiah into the court of the prison, and that they should give him daily a piece of bread out of the bakers' street, until all the bread in the city were spent. Thus Jeremiah remained in the court of the prison. Chapter 38 Jeremiah in the Dungeon Jeremiah prophesied that those who surrendered to the Chaldeans would be saved and those who did not would die. As a result the Princes decided to put him in the dungeon because they thought he was demotivating the people. The dungeon was full of muck. Verse 6 Dungeon full of Mire 6 Then took they Jeremiah, and cast him into the dungeon of Malchiah the son of Hammelech, that was in the court of the prison: and they let down Jeremiah with cords. And in the dungeon there was no water, but mire: so Jeremiah sunk in the mire. Verse 7 The Ethiopian Made Aware of Jeremiah’s Situation 7 Now when Ebedmelech the Ethiopian, one of the eunuchs which was in the king's house, heard that they had put Jeremiah in the dungeon; the king then sitting in the gate of Benjamin; Verses 8 - 13 Ebed-Melech Pleaded for the Release of Jeremiah Ebed-Melech is an Ethiopian; he was right there in the king’s palace and reasoned with the king. It shall be well with all us Ethiopians. 8 Ebedmelech went forth out of the king's house, and spake to the king saying, 9 My lord the king, these men have done evil in all that they have done to Jeremiah the prophet, whom they have cast into the dungeon; and he is like to die for hunger in the place where he is: for there is no more bread in the city. 10 Then the king commanded Ebedmelech the Ethiopian, saying, Take from hence thirty men with thee, and take up Jeremiah the prophet out of the dungeon, before he die. 11 So Ebedmelech took the men with him, and went into the house of the king under the treasury, and took thence old cast clouts and old rotten rags, and let them down by cords into the dungeon to Jeremiah. 12 And Ebed Melech the Ethiopian said unto Jeremiah, Put now these old cast clouts and rotten rags under thine arm holes under the cords. And Jeremiah did so. 13 So they drew up Jeremiah with cords, and took him up out of the dungeon: and Jeremiah remained in the court of the prison. Verses 14 - 16 Zedekiah’s Fears 14 Then Zedekiah the king sent, and took Jeremiah the prophet unto him into the third entry that is in the house of the Lord: and the king said unto Jeremiah, I will ask thee a thing; hide nothing from me. 15 Then Jeremiah said unto Zedekiah, If I declare it unto thee, wilt thou not surely put me to death? and if I give thee counsel, wilt thou not hearken unto me? 16 So Zedekiah the king sware secretly unto Jeremiah, saying, As the Lord liveth, that made us this soul, I will not put thee to death, neither will I give thee into the hand of these men that seek thy life. Verses 17- 18 Jetremiah’s Advice 17 Then said Jeremiah unto Zedekiah, Thus saith the Lord, the God of hosts, the God of Israel; If thou wilt assuredly go forth unto the king of Babylon's princes, then thy soul shall live, and this city shall not be burned with fire; and thou shalt live, and thine house: 18 But if thou wilt not go forth to the king of Babylon's princes, then shall this city be given into the hand of the Chaldeans, and they shall burn it with fire, and thou shalt not escape out of their hand. He also gave some more advice! Verses 24 - 25 Jetremiah Sworn to Secrecy 24 Then said Zedekiah unto Jeremiah, Let no man know of these words, and thou shalt not die. 25 But if the princes hear that I have talked with thee, and they come unto thee, and say unto thee, Declare unto us now what thou hast said unto the king, hide it not from us, and we will not put thee to death; also what the king said unto thee: Verse 27 - 28 Jeremiah Obeyed 27 Then came all the princes unto Jeremiah, and asked him: and he told them according to all these words that the king had commanded. So they left off speaking with him; for the matter was not perceived. 28 So Jeremiah abode in the court of the prison until the day that Jerusalem was taken: and he was there when Jerusalem was taken. Chapter 39 The Fall of Jerusalem Verses 2 - 7 King Zedekiah did not Obey Jeremiah’s Instructions 2 And in the eleventh year of Zedekiah, in the fourth month, the ninth day of the month, the city was broken up. 3 And all the princes of the king of Babylon came in, and sat in the middle gate, even Nergalsharezer, Samgarnebo, Sarsechim, Rabsaris, Nergalsharezer, Rabmag, with all the residue of the princes of the king of Babylon. 4 And it came to pass, that when Zedekiah the king of Judah saw them, and all the men of war, then they fled, and went forth out of the city by night, by the way of the king's garden, by the gate betwixt the two walls: and he went out the way of the plain. 5 But the Chaldeans' army pursued after them, and overtook Zedekiah in the plains of Jericho: and when they had taken him, they brought him up to Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon to Riblah in the land of Hamath, where he gave judgment upon him. 6 Then the king of Babylon slew the sons of Zedekiah in Riblah before his eyes: also the king of Babylon slew all the nobles of Judah. 7 Moreover he put out Zedekiah's eyes, and bound him with chains, to carry him to Babylon. Verse 8 Chaldeans Destroy the City 8 And the Chaldeans burned the king's house, and the houses of the people, with fire, and brake down the walls of Jerusalem. Verse 9 People Taken into Captivity to Babylon 9 Then Nebuzaradan the captain of the guard carried away captive into Babylon the remnant of the people that remained in the city, and those that fell away, that fell to him, with the rest of the people that remained. Verse 10 The Disenfranchised given Vineyards and Fields 10 But Nebuzaradan the captain of the guard left of the poor of the people, which had nothing, in the land of Judah, and gave them vineyards and fields at the same time. Verses 12 -14 Jeremiah Goes Free 12 Take him, and look well to him, and do him no harm; but do unto him even as he shall say unto thee. 13 So Nebuzaradan the captain of the guard sent, and Nebushasban, Rabsaris, and Nergalsharezer, Rabmag, and all the king of Babylon's princes; 14 Even they sent, and took Jeremiah out of the court of the prison, and committed him unto Gedaliah the son of Ahikam the son of Shaphan, that he should carry him home: so he dwelt among the people. Verses 15 - 18 Jeremiah Prophecies to Ebed-Melech the Ethiopian I tell you #Ethiopia it is well with you. It does not matter what the enemy is doing. 15 Now the word of the Lord came unto Jeremiah, while he was shut up in the court of the prison, saying, 16 Go and speak to Ebedmelech the Ethiopian, saying, Thus saith the Lord of hosts, the God of Israel; Behold, I will bring my words upon this city for evil, and not for good; and they shall be accomplished in that day before thee. 17 But I will deliver thee in that day, saith the Lord: and thou shalt not be given into the hand of the men of whom thou art afraid. 18 For I will surely deliver thee, and thou shalt not fall by the sword, but thy life shall be for a prey unto thee: because thou hast put thy trust in me, saith the Lord. Chapter 40 Jeremiah with Gedaliah the Governor Verses 5 - 6 Jeremiah Handed over to the Governor of Judah 5 Now while he was not yet gone back, he said, Go back also to Gedaliah the son of Ahikam the son of Shaphan, whom the king of Babylon hath made governor over the cities of Judah, and dwell with him among the people: or go wheresoever it seemeth convenient unto thee to go. So the captain of the guard gave him victuals and a reward, and let him go. 6 Then went Jeremiah unto Gedaliah the son of Ahikam to Mizpah; and dwelt with him among the people that were left in the land. Verses 9 - 12 The Remnant Prospers The formula to God’s prosperity just be where He says you are to be. No long complicated formula and He needs no one's permission. All the rich people were in captivity but the people were having an abundant harvest. Reminds me of David and the four hundred indebted and disgruntled people he began with I Samuel 22 verse 2. 9 And Gedaliah the son of Ahikam the son of Shaphan sware unto them and to their men, saying, Fear not to serve the Chaldeans: dwell in the land, and serve the king of Babylon, and it shall be well with you. 10 As for me, behold, I will dwell at Mizpah, to serve the Chaldeans, which will come unto us: but ye, gather ye wine, and summer fruits, and oil, and put them in your vessels, and dwell in your cities that ye have taken. 11 Likewise when all the Jews that were in Moab, and among the Ammonites, and in Edom, and that were in all the countries, heard that the king of Babylon had left a remnant of Judah, and that he had set over them Gedaliah the son of Ahikam the son of Shaphan; 12 Even all the Jews returned out of all places whither they were driven, and came to the land of Judah, to Gedaliah, unto Mizpah, and gathered wine and summer fruits very much. Verses 13 - 16 The Enemy turns up to bring Confusion 13 Moreover Johanan the son of Kareah, and all the captains of the forces that were in the fields, came to Gedaliah to Mizpah, 14 And said unto him, Dost thou certainly know that Baalis the king of the Ammonites hath sent Ishmael the son of Nethaniah to slay thee? But Gedaliah the son of Ahikam believed them not. 15 Then Johanan the son of Kareah spake to Gedaliah in Mizpah secretly saying, Let me go, I pray thee, and I will slay Ishmael the son of Nethaniah, and no man shall know it: wherefore should he slay thee, that all the Jews which are gathered unto thee should be scattered, and the remnant in Judah perish? 16 But Gedaliah the son of Ahikam said unto Johanan the son of Kareah, Thou shalt not do this thing: for thou speakest falsely of Ishmael. Chapter 41 Insurrection against Gedaliah Verses 1- 3 Gedaliah is Killed Lessons learnt: be careful who you break bread with and do not be careless with your life. 1 Now it came to pass in the seventh month, that Ishmael the son of Nethaniah the son of Elishama, of the seed royal, and the princes of the king, even ten men with him, came unto Gedaliah the son of Ahikam to Mizpah; and there they did eat bread together in Mizpah. 2 Then arose Ishmael the son of Nethaniah, and the ten men that were with him, and smote Gedaliah the son of Ahikam the son of Shaphan with the sword, and slew him, whom the king of Babylon had made governor over the land. 3 Ishmael also slew all the Jews that were with him, even with Gedaliah, at Mizpah, and the Chaldeans that were found there, and the men of war. Verses 4 - 7 Ishmael the mass Murderer 4 And it came to pass the second day after he had slain Gedaliah, and no man knew it, 5 That there came certain from Shechem, from Shiloh, and from Samaria, even fourscore men, having their beards shaven, and their clothes rent, and having cut themselves, with offerings and incense in their hand, to bring them to the house of the Lord. 6 And Ishmael the son of Nethaniah went forth from Mizpah to meet them, weeping all along as he went: and it came to pass, as he met them, he said unto them, Come to Gedaliah the son of Ahikam. 7 And it was so, when they came into the midst of the city, that Ishmael the son of Nethaniah slew them, and cast them into the midst of the pit, he, and the men that were with him. Verse 8 Ten Escaped Death because they had Resources People have not changed! I tell you!! 8 But ten men were found among them that said unto Ishmael, Slay us not: for we have treasures in the field, of wheat, and of barley, and of oil, and of honey. So he forbare, and slew them not among their brethren. Verse 9 Pit Used as Burial Place in the Mass Murder was built by King Asa 9 Now the pit wherein Ishmael had cast all the dead bodies of the men, whom he had slain because of Gedaliah, was it which Asa the king had made for fear of Baasha king of Israel: and Ishmael the son of Nethaniah filled it with them that were slain. Verse 10 Ishmael took Away the People 10 Then Ishmael carried away captive all the residue of the people that were in Mizpah, even the king's daughters, and all the people that remained in Mizpah, whom Nebuzaradan the captain of the guard had committed to Gedaliah the son of Ahikam: and Ishmael the son of Nethaniah carried them away captive, and departed to go over to the Ammonites. Verses 15 - 18 People Recovered Location changed because of Fear 15 But Ishmael the son of Nethaniah escaped from Johanan with eight men, and went to the Ammonites. 16 Then took Johanan the son of Kareah, and all the captains of the forces that were with him, all the remnant of the people whom he had recovered from Ishmael the son of Nethaniah, from Mizpah, after that he had slain Gedaliah the son of Ahikam, even mighty men of war, and the women, and the children, and the eunuchs, whom he had brought again from Gibeon: 17 And they departed, and dwelt in the habitation of Chimham, which is by Bethlehem, to go to enter into Egypt, 18 Because of the Chaldeans: for they were afraid of them, because Ishmael the son of Nethaniah had slain Gedaliah the son of Ahikam, whom the king of Babylon made governor in the land. Chapter 42 The Flight to Egypt Forbidden Verses 1- 3 The People seek Direction from the Lord 1 Then all the captains of the forces, and Johanan the son of Kareah, and Jezaniah the son of Hoshaiah, and all the people from the least even unto the greatest, came near, 2 And said unto Jeremiah the prophet, Let, we beseech thee, our supplication be accepted before thee, and pray for us unto the Lord thy God, even for all this remnant; (for we are left but a few of many, as thine eyes do behold us:) 3 That the Lord thy God may shew us the way wherein we may walk, and the thing that we may do. Verse 5 The People Promised to Obey God 5 Then they said to Jeremiah, The Lord be a true and faithful witness between us, if we do not even according to all things for the which the Lord thy God shall send thee to us Verse 6 Jeremiah Received an Answer in Ten Days People it is okay to wait on God. 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. Verses 9 - 12 God’s Answer to the People 9 And said unto them, Thus saith the Lord, the God of Israel, unto whom ye sent me to present your supplication before him; 10 If 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. 11 Be 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. 12 And I will shew mercies unto you, that he may have mercy upon you, and cause you to return to your own land. Verses 13 - 22 Jeremiah Predicts Destruction in Egypt 13 But if ye say, We will not dwell in this land, neither obey the voice of the Lord your God, 14 Saying, No; but we will go into the land of Egypt, where we shall see no war, nor hear the sound of the trumpet, nor have hunger of bread; and there will we dwell: 15 And now therefore hear the word of the Lord, ye remnant of Judah; Thus saith the Lord of hosts, the God of Israel; If ye wholly set your faces to enter into Egypt, and go to sojourn there; 16 Then it shall come to pass, that the sword, which ye feared, shall overtake you there in the land of Egypt, and the famine, whereof ye were afraid, shall follow close after you there in Egypt; and there ye shall die. 17 So shall it be with all the men that set their faces to go into Egypt to sojourn there; they shall die by the sword, by the famine, and by the pestilence: and none of them shall remain or escape from the evil that I will bring upon them. 18 For thus saith the Lord of hosts, the God of Israel; As mine anger and my fury hath been poured forth upon the inhabitants of Jerusalem; so shall my fury be poured forth upon you, when ye shall enter into Egypt: and ye shall be an execration, and an astonishment, and a curse, and a reproach; and ye shall see this place no more. 19 The Lord hath said concerning you, O ye remnant of Judah; Go ye not into Egypt: know certainly that I have admonished you this day. 20 For ye dissembled in your hearts, when ye sent me unto the Lord your God, saying, Pray for us unto the Lord our God; and according unto all that the Lord our God shall say, so declare unto us, and we will do it. 21 And now I have this day declared it to you; but ye have not obeyed the voice of the Lord your God, nor any thing for the which he hath sent me unto you. 22 Now therefore know certainly that ye shall die by the sword, by the famine, and by the pestilence, in the place whither ye desire to go and to sojourn. Chapter 43 Jeremiah Taken to Egypt Verses 2 - 4 The People Ignore Jeremiah 2 Then spake Azariah the son of Hoshaiah, and Johanan the son of Kareah, and all the proud men, saying unto Jeremiah, Thou speakest falsely: the Lord our God hath not sent thee to say, Go not into Egypt to sojourn there: 3 But Baruch the son of Neriah setteth thee on against us, for to deliver us into the hand of the Chaldeans, that they might put us to death, and carry us away captives into Babylon. 4 So Johanan the son of Kareah, and all the captains of the forces, and all the people, obeyed not the voice of the Lord, to dwell in the land of Judah. Verses 5 - 7 Everybody off to Egypt including Jeremiah 5 But Johanan the son of Kareah, and all the captains of the forces, took all the remnant of Judah, that were returned from all nations, whither they had been driven, to dwell in the land of Judah; 6 Even men, and women, and children, and the king's daughters, and every person that Nebuzaradan the captain of the guard had left with Gedaliah the son of Ahikam the son of Shaphan, and Jeremiah the prophet, and Baruch the son of Neriah. 7 So they came into the land of Egypt: for they obeyed not the voice of the Lord: thus came they even to Tahpanhes. Verses 8 - 13 Jeremiah Predicts the King of Babylon to take over Egypt 8 Then came the word of the Lord unto Jeremiah in Tahpanhes, saying, 9 Take great stones in thine hand, and hide them in the clay in the brickkiln, which is at the entry of Pharaoh's house in Tahpanhes, in the sight of the men of Judah; 10 And say unto them, Thus saith the Lord of hosts, the God of Israel; Behold, I will send and take Nebuchadrezzar the king of Babylon, my servant, and will set his throne upon these stones that I have hid; and he shall spread his royal pavilion over them. 11 And when he cometh, he shall smite the land of Egypt, and deliver such as are for death to death; and such as are for captivity to captivity; and such as are for the sword to the sword. 12 And I will kindle a fire in the houses of the gods of Egypt; and he shall burn them, and carry them away captives: and he shall array himself with the land of Egypt, as a shepherd putteth on his garment; and he shall go forth from thence in peace. 13 He shall break also the images of Bethshemesh, that is in the land of Egypt; and the houses of the gods of the Egyptians shall he burn with fire. Chapter 44 The Israelites will be Punished in Egypt Jeremiah is reminding those in Egypt that the reason they are where they are is because of the same things they are now doing which resulted in the destruction of Jerusalem and Judah. Jeremiah is prophesying that if they remain hard hearted and continue the same actions that is exactly what is going to happen. Verses 7 - 10 Provocation by the people 7 Therefore now thus saith the Lord, the God of hosts, the God of Israel; Wherefore commit ye this great evil against your souls, to cut off from you man and woman, child and suckling, out of Judah, to leave you none to remain; 8 In that ye provoke me unto wrath with the works of your hands, burning incense unto other gods in the land of Egypt, whither ye be gone to dwell, that ye might cut yourselves off, and that ye might be a curse and a reproach among all the nations of the earth? 9 Have ye forgotten the wickedness of your fathers, and the wickedness of the kings of Judah, and the wickedness of their wives, and your own wickedness, and the wickedness of your wives, which they have committed in the land of Judah, and in the streets of Jerusalem? 10 They are not humbled even unto this day, neither have they feared, nor walked in my law, nor in my statutes, that I set before you and before your fathers. Verses 11 - 14 Jeremiah Pronounces Judgment 11 Therefore thus saith the Lord of hosts, the God of Israel; Behold, I will set my face against you for evil, and to cut off all Judah. 12 And I will take the remnant of Judah, that have set their faces to go into the land of Egypt to sojourn there, and they shall all be consumed, and fall in the land of Egypt; they shall even be consumed by the sword and by the famine: they shall die, from the least even unto the greatest, by the sword and by the famine: and they shall be an execration, and an astonishment, and a curse, and a reproach. 13 For I will punish them that dwell in the land of Egypt, as I have punished Jerusalem, by the sword, by the famine, and by the pestilence: 14 So that none of the remnant of Judah, which are gone into the land of Egypt to sojourn there, shall escape or remain, that they should return into the land of Judah, to the which they have a desire to return to dwell there: for none shall return but such as shall escape. The people objected because they were burning incense. They were also depending on Pharaoh to save them. Jeremiah told them the end of Pharaoh also. Verses 26 - 30 The End of the Remnant in Egypt 26 Therefore hear ye the word of the Lord, all Judah that dwell in the land of Egypt; Behold, I have sworn by my great name, saith the Lord, that my name shall no more be named in the mouth of any man of Judah in all the land of Egypt, saying, The Lord God liveth. 27 Behold, I will watch over them for evil, and not for good: and all the men of Judah that are in the land of Egypt shall be consumed by the sword and by the famine, until there be an end of them. 28 Yet a small number that escape the sword shall return out of the land of Egypt into the land of Judah, and all the remnant of Judah, that are gone into the land of Egypt to sojourn there, shall know whose words shall stand, mine, or their's. 29 And this shall be a sign unto you, saith the Lord, that I will punish you in this place, that ye may know that my words shall surely stand against you for evil: 30 Thus saith the Lord; Behold, I will give Pharaohhophra king of Egypt into the hand of his enemies, and into the hand of them that seek his life; as I gave Zedekiah king of Judah into the hand of Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon, his enemy, and that sought his life. Chapter 45 Assurance to Baruch Trust me people stick with God. It does not matter how the situation looks. He will not forget you. He is the number one attention to detailer. The language is dynamic not static. I suppose after all Baruch had done and all Jeremiah is going through he might have thought God had forgotten him. Not so!! Read below!! Verses 2 - 5 God Remembered Baruch 2 Thus saith the Lord, the God of Israel, unto thee, O Baruch: 3 Thou didst say, Woe is me now! for the Lord hath added grief to my sorrow; I fainted in my sighing, and I find no rest. 4 Thus shalt thou say unto him, The Lord saith thus; Behold, that which I have built will I break down, and that which I have planted I will pluck up, even this whole land. 5 And seekest thou great things for thyself? seek them not: for, behold, I will bring evil upon all flesh, saith the Lord: but thy life will I give unto thee for a prey in all places whither thou goest. CONCLUSION Well Mon peuple nothing in life that is worth having is going to come easy. However, in the face of all the challenges one keeps moving forward and continues to look unto Jesus the author and the Finisher. It is not over until He says it is over. We will continue to thank Walmart because even when the Library is closed. I am outside of Walmart pecking away on the computer. We would also like to thank Loblaws and Real Canadian SuperStore. They have nice tables, chairs and microwaves and of course the Toronto and Brampton Libraries all for their wi-fi services. I also thank Via Rail. The problem with GO wi-fi is that the crooks just shut me down when they feel I am doing too much work. They even had Starbucks turn off theirs at night so I cannot access it. I thank you all!! I do not want to pray anymore special prayer for Walmart they might become a superpower. Lord help my Holy Ghost!! The scriptures which I have already highlighted Jeremiah 36 verses 14 - 16 and 21 - 23. Enjoy going through the scriptures with me. Until my next post. This is Raphleta, Lillene’s baby girl coming to you from Toronto, Canada. À bientôt REFERENCES The Book of Jeremiah - King James Version of the Bible

THE BOOK OF JEREMIAH LIFE LESSONS IN PLANS AND PURPOSES

Jeremiah 29 verse 11 - Song

Original Link INTRODUCTION Mon peuple, Mon peuple In terms of my earlier writings I told you I would pick up in Wyoming. While in Idaho Falls I ran into the Melaleuca office by divine destiny while looking for the library. Their offices were across from the library so I signed up while waiting for the library to open. I will not learn the tentacles of criminality run deep and wide. I decided I could promote their products on my travels and make some passive income forgetting that the Nazis and Mafias would have them to defraud me the first time I did this and that was why I rescinded the contract without prejudice. I said to myself everyone deserves a second chance. Lord help my Holy Ghost! The conclusion to that matter is that these people started stealing me even before I left the office. I had to rescind the contract again. I had the invoice to show how devious the people in the office at Melaleuca were, but of course one of the main jobs of the criminal network is to steal all my documentary evidence. They ended up stealing this along with my bags.Then I got an hour at the library which I had to fight for as per usual. Everywhere I go as I start tweeting the computer starts behaving poorly and one minute becomes fifteen to thirty seconds. I had to ask the Librarian why the children can have all the time they need to play games and I can’t have one peaceful hour on the computer? Since the Librarian could not give me a plausible explanation she gave me additional time. I tell you the CanadianVirus is a God sent for them. Every explanation is related to the Canadian Virus. There is a nice little artificial falls in the middle of the town from which the town gets its name. Idaho Falls is a nice little town unfortunately it does not have a Public Transportation system. This I am sure would make the town more vibrant especially with sections of the YellowStone Park. I thought the attraction being such a famous park there would be transportation coming out of my ears no matter the season or the Canadian Virus. How could I be so wrong? Everything was locked down. It seems like when I arrive in town a whole lot of money follows so the trend continues where when it is time for me to leave a town, people do all sorts of foolishness to prevent me from leaving. In this case I sat from 4:30 p.m. in the bus station. However, when the bus came at 5 o’clock there was no announcement and the bus deliberately left me. I was given another ticket and informed that the office closed at 5 p.m but reopened at 9 p.m. At 5 p.m. (People I had to run leave Union Station while I am typing someone is deleting let me leave Via Rail Section August 15, 2021) a red bearded fellow turned up and called the Police on me. It was all planned so they listened to both sides politely and then asked me to leave. Earlier in the day I had to insult one of them To cut to the chase when I returned at 10 p.m. The German said he would not be reopening the office. My ticket was for 5 a.m. in the morning. Earlier in the evening I had also tried to hitchhike a ride. I got an offer for everything else except for a ride to my destination. Eventually the bus came and I got on. The ride to Salt Lake City was uneventful. The scenery of the Rockies was very beautiful, with a lot of wide open spaces. A lot of room for expansion. The driver let me off at the Walmart closest to the Airport. I refreshed myself and then decided to get familiar with the local Public Transportation system. I ended up on the blue line train going through the city and to a terminus. I had access to the new International Airport which was just built, so I decided to explore a little.The Library was closed again but they tried to guide me to the Social Assistance office. I ignored them! Typical white man I started my business you destroyed it but you want to trap me on your welfare. I don't know why I would want to limit myself to your fixed monthly pay cheque. Age has nothing to do with anything. I excel further each day. It is a fantastic city with a lot of room for expansion. Of course it is mostly the Church of Latter Day Saints, with a fantastic university on the hill. The train goes right through the University. I have already told you about my walk from sixty fifth street. After we had to run from Salt Lake City because of the corrupt police and the system we had a brief stop for a few hours in St. George, Utah. I decided to look around the town and visit the Library. Of course this library staff was on extended thanksgiving holiday. That was the end of my tour. I returned to the Salt Lake station only to find two ne’er do well Caucasians ‘bout dem miss dem bus’ (saying they missed their bus) and they would be staying the night at the bus station. The inhouse Assistant bought them pizza. I said, ‘Oh yeah Rapleta, plans are afoot again to have you miss this bus and stay overnight to be violated. I immediately took up my bags and went outside and sat on a rock where I could see the front of the station and the arrivals and departures. Most times the reason they catch me is that I underestimate the cunningness and lack of integrity of the White man and his agents. Eventually the bus came and two of us went on, myself and another lady. The destination was Las Vegas, Nevada. Another beautiful city with Spanish style architecture and gambling everywhere most places open twenty four hours per day. In this city the Thailandese decided to attack me like they did in Utah. They messed me up at the Main Library. The second time I went there was no computer available. At the airport no one paid me any mind, there was no hassle I suppose they are used to people passing through. There was no doubt that the main industry of the city was gambling. There was a mini casino right in the middle of the airport. I felt more protected amongst the gamblers than the Christians. The Nazis and Mafias tried to get me to participate in the night life but as per usual I just ignored them. I also went on a free tour of the city . Of course when people saw how the driver and myself were interacting and sharing our experiences they ensured the tour was cut short. I saw nothing of the city. The driver took me to the broken down section of the city telling me about the Art District. I had to laugh to myself when I realized what was happening. The Nazis and Mafias always slander and vilify my person. All I do is just turn up and the people look at me and realize that they were told a lot of lies. Anyway, I had booked via Greyhound to go to Denver, Colorado. The first part of the trip was good. The second part some homosexuals poisoned my food on the bus. Denver Colorado was a very beautiful city reflecting the glory of a prosperous period in the past. Lots of challenges, people just lying in the streets. This time the Nazis and Mafias had an innovative idea where the library was concerned. They set up outside tables and had people use Chrome books. I had to laugh! I had no intention of sitting in any cold to use the computer. At the airport I had my one night honeymoon. You know because a black man is the mayor of the City you will be harassed. So said, so done! They harassed the life out of me!! All because I did not trust them and refused to sleep. I had to pray on one door stoop one night. The central station was also closed at night. One day I went into Whole Foods Market, they decided they were going to harass me over the use of the restrooms. I had to flee the city. I stuck close to downtown and the 16th Street Mall. Then I booked via Greyhound to go by Arrow express to Cheyenne, Wyoming because this was the capital city. Unfortunately, because I didn't have the services of a library my research on the state was lacking.When I arrived at Cheyenne at the Service Station on the outskirts I was told there was no Public Transportation in the city and I would have to take a taxi into the city. In the face of this information I decided that I would just go with the bus to Buffalo. The Wyoming scenery is very desolate, wide open spaces with a lot of limestone, A whole lot of shrubs and vast distances between civilizations. I was wondering why the company in Jamaica called Bengal did not put their proposal to the State of Wyoming. They had vast open spaces and a lot of limestone to dig. Lord help my Holy Ghost! That statement has already gotten me in trouble. I have been thrown into the cold continuously and denied wi-fi. Moving right along in the bus were a number of very sleazy looking fellows and it was obvious that they all had plans for me. One especially was on his telephone continuously. The way he was speaking I am sure he is into Human Trafficking since all I was seeing was a very desolate and barren countryside/landscape. I just decided to jump off the bus at Wheatland where there were two motels. I sat in a restaurant and ate some food before going to the motel. Of course the motel room was booby trapped. The people had chosen their own TV Channels, the heating, the dryer in the laundry room did not work. They also entered the room while I slept. The next day the bus driver picked me up and I returned to Denver Lord help my Holy Ghost!.. I did all these, people, because I wanted to see the Grand Canyon and Yellowstone National Park. I decided I had my fill of Wyoming so I would move on to South Dakota. I was given one long circuitous route through New Mexico. When I saw this I almost cancelled but I consoled myself to say it was just a transfer. Of course when we reached New Mexico the game changed. They wanted to cancel the bus for the day and no one wanted to say what was happening. After a whole lot of frustration I just drew my placard and went in front of the bus station and began protesting. A couple of hours after they sorted themselves out. On our way out of New Mexico we realized that the roads were blocked because a few centimetres of snow had fallen. I had to laugh and say they needed to get some advice from Canada on how to deal with snow. We ended up in Cincinnati, Ohio for another stop over then it was on to South Dakota. We will pick up here in March. The last part of my trip was very jumbled because of the transportation situation in these states and since all my documentation was stolen I have no way of putting things together but from memory. We will continue to pray that I have the mind of Christ. That mind remembers everything and is always very sharp. One point I would like to drive home is the fact that this building model where you have one major City and all the other cities are like poor cousins. I do not think this building model has worked very well. What you need are cities that are interconnected with more or less the same level of infrastructure. That to me lends itself to more lasting and sustainable development. The best places I saw this working out were in Switzerland and Germany. Africa a note to the wise. Do not follow the foolishness that has gone before, build to suit your cloth. You cannot have a highway network when people do not have the basic amenities in life. Who is going to drive on the highways? Nothing wrong with having highways do it gradually. Remember the multinationals are working in their favour not yours. You must have an idea of where you want to go and how you want to get there. I had that plan then I came to #Canada!! Lord help my Holy Ghost!! Then I am finding out what I can and cannot do as a black woman. Nobody in my little island told me these things. The devil is a liar and he has no mother-in-law. My Daddy created him. You limiting spirits back off! Moving right along before I start preaching. Canadians stop sticking me in my head with your injection needles. I was wondering what was affecting my eyes. Anyway, people, below is just a set of ad hoc incidents which we want recorded. Well people I cannot say the attempt to defile my person is really a surprise. Actions thus far have been leading up to the outright attempt. Hence the reason I have been trying to protect myself with prayer and by overdressing at all times. The events which took place in Sweden are now quite clear. The ultimate goal of the homosexual was to do just that. Daddy, I thank you that You are my God. There will never be another. This means my celibacy is bothering these people so much that they have crafted a diabolic scheme to defile me. In Sweden one of the Pakistani even went through the trouble of designing a screen saver for the computer with a picture of himself and the words Kumar and Puss. I deleted it immediately! Anyway I was very careless in Mississauga. I know I am dealing with unscrupulous people who have no conscience so I should have been more careful. I should have realized when I was sleeping so frequently that I was being gassed. I should have heeded the warning of the Spirit and stop being so comfortable in Mississauga. You see in Mississauga and Toronto Metrolinx have these GO Bus facilities which are quite comfortable washrooms, water and heat. Oh they are heaven and they are not harassing you. There is also the Toronto Transit Commission (TTC) train which runs until after 2 a.m. and the night buses. Plus there is the airport, that is before the Afrikaans and Germans in Africa started harassing me. Unfortunately, this is not so in Ottawa.You have to search very hard to find facilities which are public and warm after certain hours. However, they must have facilities because their homeless colony is not very visible except for those people on Rideau Street who seem to have major issues. Anyway I should have left immediately, I was turned down for the flight to Amman, Jordan. However, hindsight is 20/20, you live and learn. I am now aware that these unscrupulous criminals Caucasians, Chinese, Pakistanis, Indians, Muslims, Nigerians, Europeans and Arabs will do anything to defile my person. I wrote this when I was leaving Toronto in the Megabus on July 18, 2021 with one white idiot reading a law book in front of me. Then there was a crooked Chinese lady whose only job was to block the internet. I paid neither of them any mind and asked the driver about the wi-fi he said there was none. I opened my notes and started organizing them and tried not to sleep. Damn parasites!! Flashback - It is now April 26 I have to be leaving Ottawa by Via Rail to Toronto to Windsor in order to see if I can get a computer to purchase across the border. I thank God for favour being harassed in the train as per usual. I tell you I cannot stop writing of my dislike and hatred for Canada. The place is unscrupulously criminal. As I was heading towards Tremblay Via Rail Station a thought came to my mind ‘Daddy I cannot deal with the sharks in the river. This river is infested with these creatures which tear people apart. Immediately, it came to me ‘Raphleta if you could not I would not have given you the assignment. Conclusion of the matter being ‘My grace is made perfect in your weakness. I just went to Costco to prove what I already knew that I was being blocked on the computer. I was also prevented from purchasing another computer. If I ordered online they wanted me to go to Montreal to pick up a computer. The criminals even wanted to introduce me to a kiosk at Costco. Downright lie!! I could never live in Canada, never or even in the USA. The moral fibre of society has been torn to shreds. Let us hear what Jeremiah has to say about the matter we pick up at Jeremiah 26. REFLECTIONS What can I say, people now that I am in the Book of Jeremiah. I am enjoying it so much I even listen to it on Audio Bible King James Version reading by Alexander Scourby. CRITICAL DEFINITIONS Book - a major division of a treatise or literary work the books of the Bible Jeremiah From the Hebrew name יִרְמְיָהוּ (Yirmiyahu) meaning "YAHWEH will exalt", from the roots רוּם (rum) meaning "to exalt" and יָה (yah) referring to the Hebrew God. This is the name of one of the major prophets of the Old Testament, the author of the Book of Jeremiah and the Book of Lamentations (supposedly). He lived to see the Babylonian destruction of Jerusalem in the 6th century BC. Life Tha animate existence or period of animate existence of an individual. (how long you live for) Lessons An amount of teaching given at one time, a period of learning or teaching Plans An intention or decision about what one is going to do Purposes The reason for which something is done or created or for which something exists HIGHLIGHTS FROM THE BOOK OF JEREMIAH III. Recurring declarations of restoration for Judah and Jerusalem Jeremiah 26-35 Chapter 26 Jeremiah Saved from Death Verses 8 - 10 Tried to kill Jeremiah 8 Now it came to pass, when Jeremiah had made an end of speaking all that the Lord had commanded him to speak unto all the people, that the priests and the prophets and all the people took him, saying, Thou shalt surely die. 9 Why hast thou prophesied in the name of the Lord, saying, This house shall be like Shiloh, and this city shall be desolate without an inhabitant? And all the people were gathered against Jeremiah in the house of the Lord. 10 When the princes of Judah heard these things, then they came up from the king's house unto the house of the Lord, and sat down in the entry of the new gate of the Lord's house. Verse 15- Dare the People 15 But know ye for certain, that if ye put me to death, ye shall surely bring innocent blood upon yourselves, and upon this city, and upon the inhabitants thereof: for of a truth the Lord hath sent me unto you to speak all these words in your ears. Verse 23 King Jehoiakm Killed the Prophet Urijah Needlessly 23 And they fetched forth Urijah out of Egypt, and brought him unto Jehoiakim the king; who slew him with the sword, and cast his dead body into the graves of the common people. Verse 24 Jeremiah Saved by Ahikan the Son of Shaphan 24 Nevertheless the hand of Ahikam the son of Shaphan was with Jeremiah, that they should not give him into the hand of the people to put him to death. Chapter 27 Symbol of the Bond and Yokes Verse 1 - 4 Ordered to make Bonds and Yokes 1 In the beginning of the reign of Jehoiakim the son of Josiah king of Judah came this word unto Jeremiah from the Lord, saying, 2 Thus saith the Lord to me; Make thee bonds and yokes, and put them upon thy neck, 3 And send them to the king of Edom, and to the king of Moab, and to the king of the Ammonites, and to the king of Tyrus, and to the king of Zidon, by the hand of the messengers which come to Jerusalem unto Zedekiah king of Judah; 4 And command them to say unto their masters, Thus saith the Lord of hosts, the God of Israel; Thus shall ye say unto your masters; Verse 5 God Advised He is the Creator 5 I have made the earth, the man and the beast that are upon the ground, by my great power and by my outstretched arm, and have given it unto whom it seemed meet unto me. Verse 6 Kingdoms given to Nebuchadnezzar 6 And now have I given all these lands into the hand of Nebuchadnezzar the king of Babylon, my servant; and the beasts of the field have I given him also to serve him. Verse 8 Judgment on the Nation which will not Serve Nebuchadnezzar 8 And it shall come to pass, that the nation and kingdom which will not serve the same Nebuchadnezzar the king of Babylon, and that will not put their neck under the yoke of the king of Babylon, that nation will I punish, saith the Lord, with the sword, and with the famine, and with the pestilence, until I have consumed them by his hand. Chapter 28 Hanniah’s Falsehood and Doom Speaking directly of the destruction of Jerusalem Verse 10 - 11 Deceitful Prophet 10 Then Hananiah the prophet took the yoke from off the prophet Jeremiah's neck, and brake it. 11 And Hananiah spake in the presence of all the people, saying, Thus saith the Lord; Even so will I break the yoke of Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon from the neck of all nations within the space of two full years. And the prophet Jeremiah went his way. Verses 12 - 14 God Himself will turn up to prevent a true Prophet from being deceived 12 Then the word of the Lord came unto Jeremiah the prophet, after that Hananiah the prophet had broken the yoke from off the neck of the prophet Jeremiah, saying, 13 Go and tell Hananiah, saying, Thus saith the Lord; Thou hast broken the yokes of wood; but thou shalt make for them yokes of iron. 14 For thus saith the Lord of hosts, the God of Israel; I have put a yoke of iron upon the neck of all these nations, that they may serve Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon; and they shall serve him: and I have given him the beasts of the field also. Verse 15 Jeremiah Denounces Hananiah 15 Then said the prophet Jeremiah unto Hananiah the prophet, Hear now, Hananiah; The Lord hath not sent thee; but thou makest this people to trust in a lie. Verses 16 - 17 God kills Hananiah for Propheylying 16 Therefore thus saith the Lord; Behold, I will cast thee from off the face of the earth: this year thou shalt die, because thou hast taught rebellion against the Lord. 17 So Hananiah the prophet died the same year in the seventh month. Will the true prophets of God please stand up!. Chapter 29 Jeremiah’s Letter to the Captives one of the most memorable Passages Verses 7 - 10 Length of Captivity 7 And seek the peace of the city whither I have caused you to be carried away captives, and pray unto the Lord for it: for in the peace thereof shall ye have peace. 8 For thus saith the Lord of hosts, the God of Israel; Let not your prophets and your diviners, that be in the midst of you, deceive you, neither hearken to your dreams which ye cause to be dreamed. 9 For they prophesy falsely unto you in my name: I have not sent them, saith the Lord. 10 For thus saith the Lord, That after seventy years be accomplished at Babylon I will visit you, and perform my good word toward you, in causing you to return to this place. Here it is again in verse 10 about the seventy years length of captivity Verse 11 Memorable verse If anyone knows any verse in the Book of Jeremiah this is it 11 For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, saith the Lord, thoughts of peace, and not of evil, to give you an expected end. Verses 12 - 14 The Persons who find the Lord 12 Then shall ye call upon me, and ye shall go and pray unto me, and I will hearken unto you. 13 And ye shall seek me, and find me, when ye shall search for me with all your heart. 14 And I will be found of you, saith the Lord: and I will turn away your captivity, and I will gather you from all the nations, and from all the places whither I have driven you, saith the Lord; and I will bring you again into the place whence I caused you to be carried away captive. The foregoing passage is hardly emphasized but I think it is more important than Jeremiah 29 verse 11 because it speaks to how you get to God. Verses 18 - 19 The Destruction of the Remnant 18 And I will persecute them with the sword, with the famine, and with the pestilence, and will deliver them to be removed to all the kingdoms of the earth, to be a curse, and an astonishment, and an hissing, and a reproach, among all the nations whither I have driven them: 19 Because they have not hearkened to my words, saith the Lord, which I sent unto them by my servants the prophets, rising up early and sending them; but ye would not hear, saith the Lord. Verses 21 - 23 God is Rough with the Prophylyers 21 Thus saith the Lord of hosts, the God of Israel, of Ahab the son of Kolaiah, and of Zedekiah the son of Maaseiah, which prophesy a lie unto you in my name; Behold, I will deliver them into the hand of Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon; and he shall slay them before your eyes; 22 And of them shall be taken up a curse by all the captivity of Judah which are in Babylon, saying, The Lord make thee like Zedekiah and like Ahab, whom the king of Babylon roasted in the fire; 23 Because they have committed villany in Israel, and have committed adultery with their neighbours' wives, and have spoken lying words in my name, which I have not commanded them; even I know, and am a witness, saith the Lord. Verses 24 - 32 There are no Exceptions with God 24 Thus shalt thou also speak to Shemaiah the Nehelamite, saying, 25 Thus speaketh the Lord of hosts, the God of Israel, saying, Because thou hast sent letters in thy name unto all the people that are at Jerusalem, and to Zephaniah the son of Maaseiah the priest, and to all the priests, saying, 26 The Lord hath made thee priest in the stead of Jehoiada the priest, that ye should be officers in the house of the Lord, for every man that is mad, and maketh himself a prophet, that thou shouldest put him in prison, and in the stocks. 27 Now therefore why hast thou not reproved Jeremiah of Anathoth, which maketh himself a prophet to you? 28 For therefore he sent unto us in Babylon, saying, This captivity is long: build ye houses, and dwell in them; and plant gardens, and eat the fruit of them. 29 And Zephaniah the priest read this letter in the ears of Jeremiah the prophet. 30 Then came the word of the Lord unto Jeremiah, saying, 31 Send to all them of the captivity, saying, Thus saith the Lord concerning Shemaiah the Nehelamite; Because that Shemaiah hath prophesied unto you, and I sent him not, and he caused you to trust in a lie: 32 Therefore thus saith the Lord; Behold, I will punish Shemaiah the Nehelamite, and his seed: he shall not have a man to dwell among this people; neither shall he behold the good that I will do for my people, saith the Lord; because he hath taught rebellion against the Lord. Chapter 30 Restoration of Israel and Judah Verse 8 Africans this Scripture is for Us 8 For it shall come to pass in that day, saith the Lord of hosts, that I will break his yoke from off thy neck, and will burst thy bonds, and strangers shall no more serve themselves of him: Verses 16 - 17 More encouraging Words 16 Therefore all they that devour thee shall be devoured; and all thine adversaries, every one of them, shall go into captivity; and they that spoil thee shall be a spoil, and all that prey upon thee will I give for a prey. 17 For I will restore health unto thee, and I will heal thee of thy wounds, saith the Lord; because they called thee an Outcast, saying, This is Zion, whom no man seeketh after. Chapter 31 The Remnant of Israel Saved Verse 3 This verse lovely Hosanna song 3 The Lord hath appeared of old unto me, saying, Yea, I have loved thee with an everlasting love: therefore with lovingkindness have I drawn thee. I have Loved you - Hosanna Song - Kent Henry

Verse 10 - 11 Ransomed by God 10 Hear the word of the Lord, O ye nations, and declare it in the isles afar off, and say, He that scattered Israel will gather him, and keep him, as a shepherd doth his flock. 11 For the Lord hath redeemed Jacob, and ransomed him from the hand of him that was stronger than he. Verse 15 Future Prophecy - Mercy on Ephraim 15 Thus saith the Lord; A voice was heard in Ramah, lamentation, and bitter weeping; Rahel weeping for her children refused to be comforted for her children, because they were not. The statement fulfilled in St. Matthew 2 verse 18 18 In Rama was there a voice heard, lamentation, and weeping, and great mourning, Rachel weeping for her children, and would not be comforted, because they are not. Verse 17 Positive Prophecy 17 And there is hope in thine end, saith the Lord, that thy children shall come again to their own border. Verse 18 Fulfilling Prophecy 18 I have surely heard Ephraim bemoaning himself thus; Thou hast chastised me, and I was chastised, as a bullock unaccustomed to the yoke: turn thou me, and I shall be turned; for thou art the Lord my God. Verse 27 Future Prosperity of Judah 27 Behold, the days come, saith the Lord, that I will sow the house of Israel and the house of Judah with the seed of man, and with the seed of beast. Verses 29 - 30 Everyone accountable for their own sins 29 In those days they shall say no more, The fathers have eaten a sour grape, and the children's teeth are set on edge. 30 But every one shall die for his own iniquity: every man that eateth the sour grape, his teeth shall be set on edge. Verse 33 A New Covenant 33 But this shall be the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel; After those days, saith the Lord, I will put my law in their inward parts, and write it in their hearts; and will be their God, and they shall be my people. Verses 35 - 37 Good Prayer Point 35 Thus saith the Lord, which giveth the sun for a light by day, and the ordinances of the moon and of the stars for a light by night, which divideth the sea when the waves thereof roar; The Lord of hosts is his name: 36 If those ordinances depart from before me, saith the Lord, then the seed of Israel also shall cease from being a nation before me for ever. 37 Thus saith the Lord; If heaven above can be measured, and the foundations of the earth searched out beneath, I will also cast off all the seed of Israel for all that they have done, saith the Lord. Chapter 32 Jeremiah Buys A Field I had a nice write up on this chapter. It has now been stolen. I have to write it over. This whole chapter is about faith in action. Jeremiah was told by God to buy a field from his cousin. He did not understand why God had asked him to buy a field since they would be going into captivity. God said yes but, you are going to return. God is all about REAL ESTATE! It is just God being God yes you are going into captivity but you shall return. Seems God understands the appreciative value of real estate. I will give you the verse when his cousin turned up, his prayer for understanding and God’s assurance. Verses 2 - 3 Jeremiah in Prison 2 For then the king of Babylon's army besieged Jerusalem: and Jeremiah the prophet was shut up in the court of the prison, which was in the king of Judah's house. 3 For Zedekiah king of Judah had shut him up, saying, Wherefore dost thou prophesy, and say, Thus saith the Lord, Behold, I will give this city into the hand of the king of Babylon, and he shall take it; Verses 6 - 8 Instructions from God to Purchase Property 6 And Jeremiah said, The word of the Lord came unto me, saying, 7 Behold, Hanameel the son of Shallum thine uncle shall come unto thee saying, Buy thee my field that is in Anathoth: for the right of redemption is thine to buy it. 8 So Hanameel mine uncle's son came to me in the court of the prison according to the word of the Lord, and said unto me, Buy my field, I pray thee, that is in Anathoth, which is in the country of Benjamin: for the right of inheritance is thine, and the redemption is thine; buy it for thyself. Then I knew that this was the word of the Lord. Verses 16 - 25 Jeremiah Prays for Understanding 16 Now when I had delivered the evidence of the purchase unto Baruch the son of Neriah, I prayed unto the Lord, saying, 17 Ah Lord God! behold, thou hast made the heaven and the earth by thy great power and stretched out arm, and there is nothing too hard for thee: 18 Thou shewest loving kindness unto thousands, and recompensest the iniquity of the fathers into the bosom of their children after them: the Great, the Mighty God, the Lord of hosts, is his name, 19 Great in counsel, and mighty in work: for thine eyes are open upon all the ways of the sons of men: to give every one according to his ways, and according to the fruit of his doings: 20 Which hast set signs and wonders in the land of Egypt, even unto this day, and in Israel, and among other men; and hast made thee a name, as at this day; 21 And hast brought forth thy people Israel out of the land of Egypt with signs, and with wonders, and with a strong hand, and with a stretched out arm, and with great terror; 22 And hast given them this land, which thou didst swear to their fathers to give them, a land flowing with milk and honey; 23 And they came in, and possessed it; but they obeyed not thy voice, neither walked in thy law; they have done nothing of all that thou commandedst them to do: therefore thou hast caused all this evil to come upon them: 24 Behold the mounts, they are come unto the city to take it; and the city is given into the hand of the Chaldeans, that fight against it, because of the sword, and of the famine, and of the pestilence: and what thou hast spoken is come to pass; and, behold, thou seest it. 25 And thou hast said unto me, O Lord God, Buy thee the field for money, and take witnesses; for the city is given into the hand of the Chaldeans. Verse 27 God’s Assurance of the People’s Return

Another scripture favourite from the book of Jeremiah. If you did not know it this is a good time to get caught up to speed. 27 Behold, I am the Lord, the God of all flesh: is there any thing too hard for me? Verses 38 - 39 God’s Assurance of the People’s Return cont’d 38 And they shall be my people, and I will be their God: 39 And I will give them one heart, and one way, that they may fear me for ever, for the good of them, and of their children after them: Verses 43 - 44 God’s Assurance of the People’s Return cont’d 43 And fields shall be bought in this land, whereof ye say, It is desolate without man or beast; it is given into the hand of the Chaldeans. 44 Men shall buy fields for money, and subscribe evidences, and seal them, and take witnesses in the land of Benjamin, and in the places about Jerusalem, and in the cities of Judah, and in the cities of the mountains, and in the cities of the valley, and in the cities of the south: for I will cause their captivity to return, saith the Lord. Fantastic chapter Jeremiah in prison and buying property (black people what is your excuse for not having any). Daddy showing FAITH in action. Fantastic chapter! Chapter 33 Excellence of the Restored Nation Verses 1 - 3 The Prophet still in Prison 1 Moreover the word of the Lord came unto Jeremiah the second time, while he was yet shut up in the court of the prison, saying, 2 Thus saith the Lord the maker thereof, the Lord that formed it, to establish it; the Lord is his name; 3 Call unto me, and I will answer thee, and show thee great and mighty things, which thou knowest not. Verse 3 another favourite scripture. I tell you I am giving you all my secrets. Love to listen to Pastor E.A.Adeboye when he is going through his paces with these scriptures. They just fly off his tongue. Note People that Jeremiah is still in prison and the Lord is still talking. God is able to speak to you in any situation. It was King David in Psalm 139 verse 8 that said even when you are in hell the Lord is there. I am reminded of the time I was in a church and a gentleman was sharing from Psalm 40. I tell you when he reached verse 2 his demeanour, his voice and everything changed in order to emphasize how deep the ‘horrible pit’ was. I am now saying to you that God is able to speak to you even in that horrible pit. I am reminded of when Sister P said ‘Di one Audley betta nuh draw mi tongue’. Since I did not want anyone pulling on my tongue and since my Daddy made the original pit for the devil and his crowd I left the meeting and never returned.We will speak to the deliverance at another time. Verses 10 - 11 The Prophetic Song - Od Yishama (There Shall Be Heard)

It was not the Hebrew version I knew but in a situation where my YouTube is constantly being manipulated. We will go with the flow. You can also learn some Hebrew in the process. 10 Thus saith the Lord; Again there shall be heard in this place, which ye say shall be desolate without man and without beast, even in the cities of Judah, and in the streets of Jerusalem, that are desolate, without man, and without inhabitant, and without beast, 11 The voice of joy, and the voice of gladness, the voice of the bridegroom, and the voice of the bride, the voice of them that shall say, Praise the Lord of hosts: for the Lord is good; for his mercy endureth for ever: and of them that shall bring the sacrifice of praise into the house of the Lord. For I will cause to return the captivity of the land, as at the first, saith the Lord. Verses 14 - 18 Messianic Promises 14 Behold, the days come, saith the Lord, that I will perform that good thing which I have promised unto the house of Israel and to the house of Judah. 15 In those days, and at that time, will I cause the Branch of righteousness to grow up unto David; and he shall execute judgment and righteousness in the land. 16 In those days shall Judah be saved, and Jerusalem shall dwell safely: and this is the name wherewith she shall be called, The Lord our righteousness. 17 For thus saith the Lord; David shall never want a man to sit upon the throne of the house of Israel; 18 Neither shall the priests the Levites want a man before me to offer burnt offerings, and to kindle meat offerings, and to do sacrifice continually. Verse 17 I know if you are like me most times you repeat these scriptures but you are not so sure of the reference. Thank God for Google! Now you know that God did speak to the permanence of the lineage of King David which ended with the Lord Jesus Christ! King of all kings and Lord of lords! The conquering Lion of the Tribe of Judah!! Verses 20 - 22 The Permanence of God’s Covenant 20 Thus saith the Lord; If ye can break my covenant of the day, and my covenant of the night, and that there should not be day and night in their season; 21 Then may also my covenant be broken with David my servant, that he should not have a son to reign upon his throne; and with the Levites the priests, my ministers. 22 As the host of heaven cannot be numbered, neither the sand of the sea measured: so will I multiply the seed of David my servant, and the Levites that minister unto me. Verses 25 - 26 The Permanence of God’s Covenant cont’d 25 Thus saith the Lord; If my covenant be not with day and night, and if I have not appointed the ordinances of heaven and earth; 26 Then will I cast away the seed of Jacob and David my servant, so that I will not take any of his seed to be rulers over the seed of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob: for I will cause their captivity to return, and have mercy on them. I tell you people the promises are sure and this was the Old Testament. People we are into the New Testament and the Governor is in the house with bigger and better promises.Let us use the power and authority we have in the Holy Spirit to subdue situations. Chapter 34 Zedekiah Warned By God Verse 2 God will Restore Israel 2 Thus saith the Lord, the God of Israel; Go and speak to Zedekiah king of Judah, and tell him, Thus saith the Lord; Behold, I will give this city into the hand of the king of Babylon, and he shall burn it with fire: Verses 10 - 11 Treacherous Treatment of Slaves 10 Now when all the princes, and all the people, which had entered into the covenant, heard that every one should let his manservant, and every one his maidservant, go free, that none should serve themselves of them any more, then they obeyed, and let them go. 11 But afterward they turned, and caused the servants and the handmaids, whom they had let go free, to return, and brought them into subjection for servants and for handmaids. Verses 12 - 17 Judgment of the Lord 12 Therefore the word of the Lord came to Jeremiah from the Lord, saying, 13 Thus saith the Lord, the God of Israel; I made a covenant with your fathers in the day that I brought them forth out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondmen, saying, 14 At the end of seven years let ye go every man his brother an Hebrew, which hath been sold unto thee; and when he hath served thee six years, thou shalt let him go free from thee: but your fathers hearkened not unto me, neither inclined their ear. 15 And ye were now turned, and had done right in my sight, in proclaiming liberty every man to his neighbour; and ye had made a covenant before me in the house which is called by my name: 16 But ye turned and polluted my name, and caused every man his servant, and every man his handmaid, whom he had set at liberty at their pleasure, to return, and brought them into subjection, to be unto you for servants and for handmaids. 17 Therefore thus saith the Lord; Ye have not hearkened unto me, in proclaiming liberty, every one to his brother, and every man to his neighbour: behold, I proclaim a liberty for you, saith the Lord, to the sword, to the pestilence, and to the famine; and I will make you to be removed into all the kingdoms of the earth. Verse 17 good warfare scripture against treachery! I declare that even as you said in your word... Chapter 35 The Obedient Rechabites This is a fantastic story about obedience! It is about a sect of people in Israel that obeyed their forefathers instructions not to drink wine. I keep telling you to be careful of the people you have in your ears. They will cause you to disobey God. Verses 2 - 5 Jeremiah tried to get the Rechabites to Disobey 2 Go unto the house of the Rechabites, and speak unto them, and bring them into the house of the Lord, into one of the chambers, and give them wine to drink. 3 Then I took Jaazaniah the son of Jeremiah, the son of Habaziniah, and his brethren, and all his sons, and the whole house of the Rechabites; 4 And I brought them into the house of the Lord, into the chamber of the sons of Hanan, the son of Igdaliah, a man of God, which was by the chamber of the princes, which was above the chamber of Maaseiah the son of Shallum, the keeper of the door: 5 And I set before the sons of the house of the Rechabites pots full of wine, and cups, and I said unto them, Drink ye wine. Verses 6 - 11 Rechabites Refused Jeremiah 6 But they said, We will drink no wine: for Jonadab the son of Rechab our father commanded us, saying, Ye shall drink no wine, neither ye, nor your sons forever: 7 Neither shall ye build house, nor sow seed, nor plant vineyard, nor have any: but all your days ye shall dwell in tents; that ye may live many days in the land where ye be strangers. 8 Thus have we obeyed the voice of Jonadab the son of Rechab our father in all that he hath charged us, to drink no wine all our days, we, our wives, our sons, nor our daughters; 9 Nor to build houses for us to dwell in: neither have we vineyard, nor field, nor seed: 10 But we have dwelt in tents, and have obeyed, and done according to all that Jonadab our father commanded us. 11 But it came to pass, when Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon came up into the land, that we said, Come, and let us go to Jerusalem for fear of the army of the Chaldeans, and for fear of the army of the Syrians: so we dwell at Jerusalem.\ Verses 12 - 17 God Pronounces Judgment 12 Then came the word of the Lord unto Jeremiah, saying, 13 Thus saith the Lord of hosts, the God of Israel; Go and tell the men of Judah and the inhabitants of Jerusalem, Will ye not receive instruction to hearken to my words? saith the Lord. 14 The words of Jonadab the son of Rechab, that he commanded his sons not to drink wine, are performed; for unto this day they drink none, but obey their father's commandment: notwithstanding I have spoken unto you, rising early and speaking; but ye hearkened not unto me. 15 I have sent also unto you all my servants the prophets, rising up early and sending them, saying, Return ye now every man from his evil way, and amend your doings, and go not after other gods to serve them, and ye shall dwell in the land which I have given to you and to your fathers: but ye have not inclined your ear, nor hearkened unto me. 16 Because the sons of Jonadab the son of Rechab have performed the commandment of their father, which he commanded them; but this people hath not hearkened unto me: 17 Therefore thus saith the Lord God of hosts, the God of Israel; Behold, I will bring upon Judah and upon all the inhabitants of Jerusalem all the evil that I have pronounced against them: because I have spoken unto them, but they have not heard; and I have called unto them, but they have not answered. CONCLUSION Well people we have made it yet again, this time around my Blog is under serious attack from all the ites Perizzites, Amorites, Moabites, Ammonites, Jebusites, Canaanites and Girgasites and they are as vile as their names suggest. It is all gloves off and stop pretending that we are nice and we wish her well. Our intentions are to destroy her in every way we can. But God, they destroy this Blog I start another, and another. and another… I really don’t know who told these people that under God’s heaven I would want anything from any of them. Let us look at the specific gems for this section. I mean this section has everything. I really think I am giving away too many of my secrets. I mean in those three thirty and four o’clock hours in the early morning when I was alone on my knees before the Lord in the living room, the television to my back. I mean when I was leading worship I had to be before the Lord for the whole week and I watched no television the Saturday night because unknown to me it was really some serious warfare. I thank God for the opportunity to hone my skills. Stay before God people! I will continue to do so because when you think you have arrived. Then you realize that there are higher heights and deeper depths in God. With this God there is no ultimate destination, only continuous growth! The scriptures which I have already highlighted Jeremiah 29 verse 11, 31 vs 3, 31 vs 29-30, 31 vs 33, 32 vs 27, 33 vs 3, 33 vs 10-11, 33 vs 16-18. Enjoy going through the scriptures with me.
