Complete Deliverance
"I will deliver you in that day," says the Lord, "and you shall not be given into the hand of the men of whom you are afraid."
~ Jeremiah 39:17
"When the Lord's faithful ones are suffering for Him, they shall have sweet messages of love from Himself. Ebed-Melech was only a despised Ethiopian, but he was kind to Jeremiah, and so the Lord sent him this special Promise. Let us be ever mindful of God's persecuted servants, and He will reward us.
Ebed-melech was to be delivered from the men whose vengeance he feared. He was a humble black man, but Jehovah would take care of him. Thousands were slain by the Chaldeans, but this lowly servant could not be hurt. We, too, may be fearful of ones who are bitter against us; but if we have been faithful to the Lord's cause in the hour of persecution, He will be faithful to us. No cup of cold water given to a despised prophet of God shall be without its reward; and if we stand up for Jesus, Jesus will stand up for us."

Lord, please help those who are lost find there way to Your Salvation. Lord, help those who do know You, but have strayed so far that they are having a hard time finding their way back to You. Lord, be with those who have a little devil ditting on their shoulders telling them to give up on life, and who are being told to commit suicide. Help them make the right decision, by not taking their lives and turning to You O Lord. This we ask in Christ Jesus' Precious Name, Amen!
