Ecclesiastes 2:10 ► |
And whatsoever mine eyes desired I kept not from them, I withheld not my heart from any joy; for my heart rejoiced in all my labour: and this was my portion of all my labour. Commentary on this verse: :1-11 Solomon soon found mirth and pleasure to be vanity. What does noisy, flashy mirth towards making a man happy? The manifold devices of men's hearts, to get satisfaction from the world, and their changing from one thing to another, are like the restlessness of a man in a fever. Perceiving it was folly to give himself to wine, he next tried the costly amusements of princes. The poor, when they read such a description, are ready to feel discontent. But the remedy against all such feelings is in the estimate of it all by the owner himself. All was vanity and vexation of spirit: and the same things would yield the same result to us, as to Solomon. Having food and raiment, let us therewith be content. His wisdom remained with him; a strong understanding, with great human knowledge. But every earthly pleasure, when unconnected with better blessings, leaves the mind as eager and unsatisfied as before. Happiness arises not from the situation in which we are placed. It is only through Jesus Christ that final blessedness can be attained. Our prayer: Prayer for Ecclesiastes 2:22 ► “For what does a man get with all his work and all his efforts that he labors with under the sun?” Freedom From Anxiety In A World In Turmoil Loving Heavenly Father, it seems that more and more people are becoming increasingly anxious about what is going on in the world today and what is likely to happen, both within our own nations and further afield. There are many conspiracy theories on one hand and a lot of hype on the other, which seem deliberately designed to cause people to become anxious and afraid. We know that You are not a God of disorder or fear, but a God of peace and love, but we also know that the Bible tells us that as we get closer to the return of the Lord Jesus for His church, men’s hearts will start to fail, for fear of what is coming on the earth. Lord Jesus, we are Your child and we know that our strength and comfort is in You. We know that You will never leave us nor forsake us, no matter what happens in this world. Keep us well pray from anxious thoughts, and prevent our heart from fearing what is coming on the world, knowing that our citizenship is in heaven with You, and knowing that the day is fast approaching when You will come to take us to be with Yourself in our heavenly home, where we will be with You forever. Thank You for this assurance I have in Christ Jesus my Saviour, Amen. Source: Prayer for Ecclesiastes 2:22 |
