Jeremiah 14:11 ► Then said the LORD ...

[Tang Wei Ping]

Jeremiah 14:11 ► Then said the LORD unto me, Pray not for this people for their good.

Commentary on this verse:
14:10-16 The Lord calls the Jews this people, not his people. They had forsaken his service, therefore he would punish them according to their sins. He forbade Jeremiah to plead for them. The false prophets were the most criminal. The Lord pronounces condemnation on them; but as the people loved to have it so, they were not to escape judgments. False teachers encourage men to expect peace and salvation, without repentance, faith, conversion, and holiness of life. But those who believe a lie must not plead if for an excuse. They shall feel what they say they will not fear.

Our prayer:

Heavenly Father, we say to You, we acknowledge our wickedness. We have sinned against You in a variety of ways. A variety of ways that are coming to our mind right now, and we'll spend time verbalizing before You, even right after this is over. And LORD God, we pray that You would give grace for others to do the same. LORD God, search our hearts, uncover our sin that we might see it as You see it, we might acknowledge it as You acknowledge it. And LORD God in the process that we might find Your mercy and Your grace just covering over us, You would help us to be reconciled, restored to You, to grow in You in greater and greater ways than we ever have, through confession of our sin. So help us to see sin in our lives, the way You see sin in our lives and help us turn from it with repentant hearts. In Jesus’ name we pray. Amen.

Heavenly Father,

We come before You with humble hearts, acknowledging our sins and transgressions. As it is written in 1 John 1:9, "If we confess our sins, He is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness." Lord, we bring our sins before You, confessing them openly and seeking Your forgiveness and mercy.

Your Word in Jeremiah 14:11 reminds us of the seriousness of turning away from You and the consequences of following false teachings. We pray for discernment and wisdom to recognize any falsehoods that may lead us astray from Your truth. Help us to cling to Your Word, as it is written in Psalm 119:105, "Your word is a lamp to my feet and a light to my path."

Lord, we ask that You search our hearts and reveal any hidden sins, as it is written in Psalm 139:23-24, "Search me, O God, and know my heart; try me and know my thoughts; and see if there be any grievous way in me, and lead me in the way everlasting." May we see our sins as You see them and turn from them with truly repentant hearts.

Father, we pray for ### and everyone in our group, that we may experience Your grace and mercy. Help us to be reconciled to You and to grow in our faith. As it is written in 2 Chronicles 7:14, "If My people who are called by My name humble themselves, and pray and seek My face and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven and will forgive their sin and heal their land."

We pray for strength and guidance to walk in Your ways, to live lives that are pleasing to You, and to be a light to those around us. May Your Holy Spirit empower us to live in holiness and righteousness, reflecting Your love and truth in all that we do.

In Jesus' mighty name, we pray. Amen.
