Prediction…truth…seeking…

When the doctor sits across from you and says you have about 2-5 months left, it gets your attention…he is guessing by past experience, odds of medical information…

But, when God says what the time will be, you can be sure that he is right…after all he is all knowing, he alone knows the times…the beginning fro the end, our make up…he knows our plan…

I am going back to the 70 years…as spoken in the psalms, Jeremiah…

 Our days may come to seventy years,or eighty, if our strength endures;yet the best of them are but trouble and sorrow,for they quickly pass, and we fly away. 

Teach us to number our days,that we may gain a heart of wisdom. Satisfy us in the morning with your unfailing love,that we may sing for joy and be glad all our days. 

Make us glad for as many days as you have afflicted us,for as many years as we have seen trouble. 

May your deeds be shown to your servants,your splendor to their children. 

May the favor of the Lord our God rest on us;establish the work of our hands for us—yes, establish the work of our hands.

Ps.90.10,14, Ps.90.14-17

God gave the Israelites 70 years in exile in Babylon…he sent them to build houses, grow gardens, marry, have families, multiply…just as they did in Egypt…they are to prosper, learn…maybe even be contented I the place that He planted them…then he would take them back to their land…

And just as he listened to them  in Egypt, He brought them  out of Babylon brought them to the promised land …

 This is what the Lord says: “When seventy years are completed for Babylon, I will come to you and fulfill my good promise to bring you back to this place. 

For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the Lord, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future. 

Then you will call on me and come and pray to me, and I will listen to you. You will seek me and find me when you seek me with all your heart. I will be found by you,” declares the Lord, “and will bring you back from captivity. I will gather you from all the nations and places where I have banished you,” declares the Lord, “and will bring you back to the place from which I carried you into exile.”

Jer.29.10-14

Jesus’ words in Matthew…

 “Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you. 

For everyone who asks receives; the one who seeks finds; and to the one who knocks, the door will be opened.

Matt.7.7-8

God has his promises to us…are they predictions, truth?….

God is truth and we can count on that…no matter what man may predict…

Thank YOU…

God said it…
