Scripture Union Daily Guide 29th February 2024 Outline:
God tells His people that He was quiet and inactive about them for a long time but now, He is rousing Himself to action to restore and defend them from all their enemies (v.14). He will lead them even though they may not understand where they are going or what they are doing (vs.16,17).
God’s goodness and action come out of His love for His people, not on what they have done. His people still see and hear but do not understand their situation. God will fight for them to destroy their enemies and to protect them even when they failed to perform the task God gave them (v.19). How does this encourage you if you have been disobedient and inactive in serving God? Be encouraged to come to God, confess your sins and He will restore you (1:18).
Perhaps it is sad to know that God’s people failed to appreciate that all their problems and exile were a result of their disobedience and sin (v.25). Often, we blame God when it is we who are in the wrong. I attended a funeral of a man who had died from a car accident because he was drunk but people were blaming God.
Practice/Word Application
And so? Take responsibility for your actions that led to your failure and confess them to the Lord.
