Jeremiah 26:2-3 KJV
Thus saith the LORD; Stand in the court of the LORD'S house, and speak unto all the cities of Judah, which come to worship in the LORD'S house, all the words that I command thee to speak unto them; diminish not a word:
If so be they will hearken, and turn every man from his evil way, that I may repent me of the evil, which I purpose to do unto them because of the evil of their doings.
This is quite something! The almighty God of the universe here proposes to repent of His own purposes if men will turn from their evil way.
What grace God has bestowed and what weight men ought to place on hearing the preaching of God's Word. God says He will change His own purposes if men will hear the preaching of His Word and turn.
As we enter into a few days of revival preaching, may we all hearken and turn.
"Help us, Heavenly Father, to see the great importance You place on the preaching. You did not place the possibility of changing Your purposes on politics, campaigning, or any other action. You said that if men would hearken to Your preacher and turn from their evil way, you would repent of what You had purposed to do. Father give us the grace to heed this today!"
