TOPIC: BEAR ONE ANOTHER’S BURDEN

Fire Scripture: Jeremiah 40:1-4

1 The word that came to Jeremiah from the Lord, after that Nebuzaradan the captain of the guard had let him go from Ramah, when he had taken him being bound in chains among all that were carried away captive of Jerusalem and Judah, which were carried away captive unto Babylon.

2 And the captain of the guard took Jeremiah, and said unto him, The Lord thy God hath pronounced this evil upon this place.

3 Now the Lord hath brought it, and done according as he hath said: because ye have sinned against the Lord, and have not obeyed his voice, therefore this thing is come upon you.

4 And now, behold, I loose thee this day from the chains which were upon thine hand. If it seem good unto thee to come with me into Babylon, come; and I will look well unto thee: but if it seem ill unto thee to come with me into Babylon, forbear: behold, all the land is before thee: whither it seemeth good and convenient for thee to go, thither go.

Today’s Outline

The Bible commands believers to bear one another’s burden (Galatians 6:2). However, several incidents in the Bible and in our days show that this important Bible command has been largely neglected. That is why the issue should be a matter of great prayer and concern today. Our Fire Scripture for today reveals that when Jeremiah was in need of help, he did not find it through his own people but through Nebuzaradan, one of the oppressors of his people.

The man was the commander of the imperial guard. He had found Jeremiah bound in chains among the captives from Jerusalem and Judah who were being carried into exile to Babylon, he set him free and promised to take care of him. The point here is that it is sad and sobering that God’s people meet with more kindness from unbelievers than they do from their Christian brothers and sisters.

Someone might say that Jeremiah’s incident happened in the Old Testament. Let me share with you a similar incident in the New Testament. Jesus told the parable of the Good Samaritan. In that story, a traveller was attacked by armed robbers, dispossessed of his belongings and left half dead. The Bible says that a priest saw him in that pitiable condition but just passed him by.

A Levite saw him too but didn’t help him. Then came the Samaritan. Culturally, Samaritans and Jews do not relate well. Yet, the Samaritan stopped, treated the man’s wound and carried him to an inn where he paid for him to be taken care of with a promise that he would complete the payment when returning from his trip. It was help from unexpected quarters. However, it is not enough to say, “Help is help.

The important thing is that the man got help. Where he did does not matter.” It does matter because the Bible says and expects that the Jew’s brothers and sisters in faith should have been the first to rally round him and help him. That did not happen and it means they did not fulfil the law of Beloved, if you are guilty of not bearing the burden of your fellow believers, turn a new leaf today!

Memory Verse
Galatians 6:2 – “Bear ye one another’s burden, and so fulfil the law of Christ.”
