A word fitly spoken is like apples of gold is as pictures of silver.(Prov.25:11) It is so important to speak the right words to people at the right time to produce the right results. When you think of apples of gold in pictures of silver, then you are thinking of wealth and excellence. When we speak wisdom into the lives of others we are making them wealthy. Therefore we must seek God for He is the source of all wisdom and He will give us just the right words needed at the right time.

#To whom be glory forever and ever. Amen. Galatians 1:5
The Greek word for glory is Doxa; meaning honor, and praise. From the base of Dokeo; glory (is very apparent) in a wide application of worship. This is the term for Doxology. This verse is one of the great doxologies of the church. Revelation 5:12 Says with a loud voice, Worthy is the Lamb that was slain to receive power, and riches, and wisdom, and strength, and honor, and glory, and blessing. We will be singing the praises of the Lord Jesus as the Lamb of God who was slain before the foundations of the world. There will not be any racial divide as all tribes, and kindreds will sing the alleluia choros in heaven. What a glorious day that will be, so let us sing His praises now while there is still breathing in our lungs.
#Who gave Himself for our sins, that He might deliver us from this present world, according to the will of God and our Father. Galatians 1:4
The Greek word for the present is Enistemi; meaning to place in, to be at hand. From En and Histemi to place on hand, i.e. (reflexively) to be instant. Hebrews 9:9 Which was a figure for the time then present, in which were offered both gifts and sacrifices, that couldn't make Him that did the service perfect about the conscience; But Christ being come a High Priest of good things to come, by a greater and more perfect tabernacle, not made with hands, that is to say, not of this building; Neither by the blood of goats and calves, but by His own blood He entered in once into the holy place, having obtained eternal redemption for us. Jesus became a High Priest for us, that He might deliver us from this present world, according to the will of God our Father. Now He is seated at the Father's right hand interceding for us. Let us come boldly before the throne of Grace, and mercy that we may enter in.
#Grace be to you and peace from God the Father and from our Lord Jesus Christ. Galatians 1:3
The Greek word for Grace is Charis; meaning unmerited favor and kindness. Paul begins by setting forth his credentials as an apostle with a message from God, Blessings come from God based on our faith—and not law. The Law condemns men guilty and faith in the Lord Jesus Christ sets men free to enjoy the liberty of grace. God is our Heavenly Father, and the Lord Jesus the Son is our Mediator with the Father.
#And all the brethren which are with me, unto the churches of Galatia. Galatians 1:2
Galatia is a district in Asia Minor or a larger Roman province including this district as well as others. It took its names from those Gallic tribes that crossed into Asia Minor and after roaming about there for a time at length settled down permanently in the above mentioned region and intermarried with the Greeks. Josephus Antiquities provided this information. 2 Timothy 4:10 for Demas hath forsaken me, having loved this present world and is departed unto Thessalonica, Crescens to Galatia, Titus unto Dalmatia. So Paul had defections in the ministry, as Demas loved this present world, in the Greek Aion. From the same as Aei; properly an age, by extension, perpetuity (also past). Chronos in the Greek is that time. We are warned to love not this world, for all that is in the world the lust of the eye, the lust of the flesh, and the pride of life, all these things are passing away, He that does the will of the Father will live forever and chronos will not bother you. Let us walk in the Spirit and we will not fulfill the lust of the flesh.
#Paul, an apostle, (not of men, neither by man, but by Jesus Christ and God the Father; who raised Him from the dead;)Galatians 1:1
The Greek word for apostle is Apostolos: a messenger sent on a mission by God. Having launched their Christian experience by faith, the Galatians seemed content but then charted a new course based on works. This is why Paul declared he was an apostle not by man, but by the Lord Jesus Christ, for it was on the Damascus road, where he came into contact with the risen Savior. as he was Saul persecuting the church. Jesus said unto him Saul why do you fight against the pricks? Why are you persecuting Me? Then Saul said who art thou Lord? I am Jesus, and immediately the sun shined so bright that it put out his eyes. Then Saul was sent to Ananias to receive his sight. Jesus told Saul to get on a straight street. We are saved by grace through faith in the Lord Jesus Christ, not of works lest any man should boast. Now we are the Poemia of God which means we are Christ's workmanship, created to do good works. We do not work to earn our salvation, but to validate it. Titus 2:11-13 For the grace of God that brings salvation hath appeared to all men. Teaching us that, denying ungodliness and worldly lust, we should live soberly, righteously, and godly, in this present world. Looking for that blessed hope and the glorious appearance of the great God and our Savior Jesus Christ. Saul had his name changed to Paul and he would later ask the Galatians have I become your enemy because I tell you the truth? Jesus is the embodiment of all truth and when we preach Jesus we will make enemies. but Jesus said if you are my disciples indeed, ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.
#But thou hast utterly rejected us; thou art very wroth against us. Lamentations 5:22
The Hebrew word for wroth is Qatsaph; meaning to be angry. to crack off, burst out in rage. A primitive root. to crack off. i.e. (figuratively) burst out in rage. displease, fret self. (provoke to wrath. Genesis 41:10 Pharaoh was wroth with his servants and put me in ward in the captain of the guard's house, both me and the chief baker. Joseph has the gift of interpreting dreams, and God interprets them. So the butler is restored to the former position and the baker is hung, just as Joseph had interpreted. Two years later Pharaoh had another dream about the fat cows and the lean cows. Joseph told Pharaoh Jehovah God was going to bring seven years of prosperity and to store up in barns for the seven lean years. Joseph was promoted to second in command to Pharaoh for interpreting the dreams correctly. This is what Jeremiah is praying that the Lord will not reject Israel forever and will bless them as He did Joseph. The Bible tells us that a man's gift will make room for him. So give God the glory as Joseph did, for promotion comes neither from the East or the West, promotion comes from the Lord. Thank God we must never be weary in doing good, for at the proper time we will reap a blessing if we faint not. Thus this is the end of the Lamentations of Jeremiah and we will be going to the book of Galatians.
#Turn thou us unto thee, O LORD, and we shall be turned; renew our days as of old. Lamentations. 5:21
The Hebrew word for renew is Chadash; meaning to repair. to rebuild. A primitive root; to be new; causatively, to rebuild, Isaiah 61:4 And they shall build the old wastes, raise the former desolations and repair the waste cities, the desolations of many generations. The Spirit of the Lord GOD is upon Me because the LORD hath anointed Me to preach good tidings unto the meek; He hath sent Me to bind up the brokenhearted, to proclaim liberty to the captives, and the opening of the prison to them that are bound. To proclaim the acceptable year of the LORD, and the day of vengeance of our God; to comfort them that mourn; To appoint unto them that mourn in Zion, to give unto them beauty for ashes, the oil of joy for mourning, the garment of praise for the spirit of heaviness; that they might be called trees of righteousness, the planting of the LORD, that He might be glorified. *Isaiah 61:1-3 This is what Jeremiah is praying and weeping for.
#Wherefore dost thou forget us forever, and forsake us so long time? Lamentations 5:20
The Hebrew word for time is Yom; meaning day. From an unused root meaning to be hot; a day (as the warm hours) whether literal (from sunrise to sunset or from one sunset to the next) as at other times in trouble, weather, as when, within a whole age, full year. Hosea 6:2 After two days will He revive us: in the third day He will raise us and we shall live in His sight. This is a prophetic verse on escatology. God will come again and revive the Jewish Nation of Israel. The Jews will be trodden down by the Gentiles until the time of the Gentiles comes to an end. Jesus will come riding on a cloud, and all those who pierced Him will see Him and mourn, for He is coming with great power to set up the kingdom of God, and He will rule with a rod of iron. Jeremiah is weeping for the Lord to go and set up His kingdom.
#Thou, O LORD, remainest forever; thy throne from generation to generation. Lamentations 5:19
The Hebrew word for generation is Dor; meaning period, a revolution of time, a dwelling. age, evermore, posterity. Dor (Duwr) properly a revolution of time, i.e. An age or generation; also a dwelling. Genesis 7:1 And the LORD said unto Noah, Come thou and all thy house into the ark; for thee have I seen righteous before Me in this generation. Jehovah God dwells forever and His throne is from generation to generation. Time does not control Jehovah God, He moves outside of it Chronos is for man and his generation. As Noah was the only righteous man on the earth, and God saved him and his family in the ark. Jesus is the ark of safety for us, and if any man is in Christ he is a new creature, old things are passed away, and all things have become new.
#Because of the mountain of Zion, which is desolate, the foxes walk upon it. Lamentations 5:18
The Hebrew word for fox is Shual; perhaps a jackal—or shunal from the same as Shoal a jackal (as a burrower) fox. Song of Solomon 2:15 Take us the little foxes, that spoil the vines: for our vines have tender grapes. Solomon is talking about the little foxes that ruin a marriage. Solomon knew a lot about these little foxes with all the wives that he had. Jeremiah is talking about the mountain of Zion which is desolate, the foxes walk upon it. That is what foxes do, like a disabled spouse, the little foxes that spoil Zion. We need to pray that God will give us the strength to overcome the little foxes that creep up in marriage and remember we vowed for better and worse in sickness and health. When we say these vows in marriage we have no idea how better can be, or how worse and can be. We walk by faith and not by sight. Just pray to God that the foxes will not walk upon my marriage and that I will be faithful until death do we part.
