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.

#Thou hast heard their reproach, O LORD, and all their imaginations against me; Lamentations 3:81
The Hebrew word for imagination is Machashebeth meaning a contrivance, intention, or plan. Isaiah 55:8 For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways, saith the LORD. Behold thou shalt call a nation that thou knowest not and nations that know not thee shall run unto thee because of the LORD thy God and for the Holy One of Israel; for He hath glorified thee. Seek ye the LORD while He may be found, call ye upon Him while He is near Let the wicked forsake his way and the unrighteous man his thoughts and return unto the LORD and He will have mercy upon him and to our God, for He will abundantly pardon.
#Thou hast seen all their vengeance and all their imaginations against me. Lamentations 3:60 '
The Hebrew word for vengeance is Naqan; meaning avenge, revenge, whether the act of the passion. Judges 11:36 And she said unto him, My father if thou hast opened thy mouth unto the LORD, do to me according to that which hath proceeded out of thy mouth; forasmuch as the LORD hath taken vengeance for thee of thine enemies, even of the children of Ammon. And she said unto her father, let this thing be done for me: let me alone two months, that I may go up and down upon the mountains and bewail my virginity, I and my fellows. And he said Go, and he sent her away two months and she went with her companions and bewailed her virginity upon the mountains. And it came to pass at the end of two months, that she returned unto her father, who did with her according to his vow which he had vowed. and she knew no man. And it was the custom in Israel. Thus the children of Ammon were subdued before the children of Israel. And Jephthah came to Mizpeh unto his house, and behold his daughter came out to meet him with timbrels and with dances, and she was his only child; beside her, he had neither son nor daughter. This is how Jeremiah feels toward the children of Israel. For vengeance is the Lord's He shall repay.
#O LORD, thou hast seen my wrong: judge thou my cause. Lamentations 3:59
The Hebrew word for wrong is Avvathah; meaning to be deprived of justice. From Avath; meaning oppression Psalm 119:78 Let the proud be ashamed; for they dealt perversely with me without a cause but I will meditate in thy precepts. Jesus told us how to pray in the model prayer: Our Father, who art in heaven, hollowed be thy name, thy Kingdom come thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven, give us this day our daily bread, and forgive us our trespasses as we forgive those who trespass against us, and lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil. For thine is the kingdom, and the power and the glory forever. Amen. This is how we must pray and the Lord will reward us as we meditate on his precepts. Jeremiah has been confessing the sins of the people and interceding for them. Thank God that Jesus is at the right hand of the Father in heaven interceding for us. God will right every wrong and judge my cause. Vengeance is for the Lord He shall repay. Therefore give place for wrath, be quick to hear, slow to speak, and slow to anger, for the anger of man does not produce the righteousness of God.
#O Lord, thou hast pleaded the causes of my soul; thou hast redeemed my life. Lamentations 3:58
The Hebrew word for redeemed is Gaal; meaning act as kinsman. in any case, avenger, purchase. A primitive root, to redeem ( according to the Oriental law of kinship), i.e. To be the next of kin (and as such to buy back a relative's property, marry his widow, etc) Ruth 4:4 And I thought to advertise thee, saying, Buy it before the inhabitants and before the elders of my people. If thou wilt redeem it, but if thou wilt not redeem it, then tell me, that I may know: for there is none to redeem it besides thee; and I am after thee. And he said I will redeem it. Then said Boaz, What day thou buyest the field of the hand of Naomi, thou must buy it also of Ruth the Moabitess, the wife of the dead, to raise the name of the dead upon his inheritance. Now this was the manner in former time in Israel concerning redeeming and changing, for to confirm all things, a man plucked off his shoe and gave it to his neighbor and this was the testimony in Israel. Thus Boaz became the kinsman redeemer for Ruth and is a type of Christ for us, our Kinsman redeemer, for dying on the cross for our sins. Jeremiah knows that Adoni has pleaded his causes of my soul, and redeemed my life. I pray you will accept Him today as your Personal Lord and Savior.
#Thow drewest near in the day that I called upon thee: thou saidst, Fear not. Lamentations 3:57
The Hebrew word for drewest is Qarab: meaning to come near, or approach. A primitive root, to approach (causatively, from a thing near) for whatsoever purpose is an Aramaic word as a man would approach a woman for relations. Isaiah 48:16 Come ye near unto Me, hear ye this; I have not spoken in secret from the beginning; from the time that it was, there am I and now the Lord GOD and His Spirit, hath sent Me. We are seeing the meteorologist give PDS warning which means a partially dangerous situation. meaning an EF3 tornado or greater is coming with destructive situations. God is calling us to come near to Him, for He has sent His Son Jesus Christ, by the power of the Holy Spirit to draw us near to Him. Jesus tells us to Fear not, for it is I. This is what Jesus said to the disciples when He was walking on the waters and they thought He was a ghost. Peter said Lord bid me to come, and Peter was walking on the water too, then seeing the waves, hearing the wind, Peter began to sink. Then Peter crys out Lord save me, then Jesus reaches out with His hand to pull Peter out of the waters. Jesus said to Peter why did you doubt? We must not Fear the storms in life when Jesus is with us. God has not given us the spirit of fear, but of power, love, and a sound mind.
#And behold, the angel that talked with me went forth and another angel went out to meet him, And said unto him, Run, speak to this young man, saying Jerusalem shall be inhabited as towns without walls for the multitude of men and cattle therein. For, I, saith the LORD, will be unto her a wall of fire round about, and will be the glory in the midst of her. Zachariah 2:3-5
Happy Memorial Day! For thank God that just as Jehovah God was a wall of fire about Jerusalem and the glory in the midst of her, So shall He be for America. Blessed is the nation whose God is the LORD. Righteousness exalts a nation but sin is a reproach to any people. Let us thank God for the men and women who serve this great nation in the Armed Services, and pay tribute to them for their service. For no greater love can a man have than to lay down his life for his friends. Jesus laid down His life for us on the cross and said that the servant is no greater than the Master. Let us do likewise as we serve the Lord Jesus Christ
#Thou hast heard my voice: hide not thine ear at my breathing, at my cry. Lamentations 3:56
Happy Memorial Weekend and give all veterans a hardy thank you for your service. Just know that we are free because many of them made the ultimate sacrifice. Our prayers are for Robert Hatton in hospice care. Jesus prayed for us in John 17:24 Father, I will that they also whom thou hast given Me, be with Me where I am: that they may behold My glory, which thou hast given Me: for thou lovedst Me before the foundations of the world. The Hebrew word Nephash for soul is where we go when Jesus calls us home. For to be absent from the body is to be present with the Lord. For this mortal must put on immortality, and this corruptible must put on eternal life, then shall come to pass we will take our last breath on earth and breathe eternal life in the presence of Jesus at the right hand of the Father where there will be pleasures forevermore. So pray for me also as my kidney disease is in the third stage and I have to get my A1C below 7 again, cause it is at 11 now which may lead to dialysis. May the Lord bless you richly my beloved brothers and sisters in Christ.
#I called upon thy name, O LORD, out of the low dungeon. Lamentations 3:55
The Hebrew name for the LORD is Yhvh; meaning Jehovah, the proper name for the God of Israel. From Hayah; the self-existent or Eternal; Jehovah, the Jewish national name of God. Isaiah 33:11 Ye shall conceive chaff, ye shall bring forth stubble: your breath, as fire, shall devour you. Jehovah God is a consuming fire and He will conceive all the chaff, and stubble with His breath and devour you. Hear ye that are far off, what I have done and ye that are near, acknowledge my might. The sinners in Zion are afraid; fearfulness hath surprised the hypocrites. Who among us shall dwell with the devouring fire? Who among us shall dwell with everlasting burnings? Jeremiah is in awe in the dungeon and calls upon the name of Jehovah God to save him. It is a fearful thing to fall into the hands of Jehovah. Let us call upon the Name of Jehovah God for He shall save us from all our enemies.
#Waters flowed over mine head; then I said, I am cut off. Lamentations 3:54
The Hebrew word for waters is Mayim; meaning urine, or semen. Dual of a primitive noun (but used in a singular sense) figuratively, juice; by euphemism, piss, wasting, water ( flood, spring) Jeremiah 8:14 Why do we sit still? assemble yourselves and let us enter the defense cities and we must be silent there: for the LORD our, God hath put us to silence and given us water of gall to drink, because we have sinned against the LORD. We see Jeremiah confessing the sins of the people and that Jehovah God has silenced them because they have sinned against Jehovah God. This is the same gall that the Lord Jesus was given on the cross when He said I thirst. We are in a wasteful situation as many of us have repairs from the derecho that hit our homes in Katy, Texas. Many are the afflictions of the righteous but the Lord gives us the grace to overcome them. This poor man cried and the Lord delivered me from all my afflictions. The Lord knows how to silence us when we sin against Him. We must repent, change our direction, and turn our minds to Jesus.
#They have cut off my life in the dungeon and cast a stone upon me. Lamentations 3:53
The Hebrew word for dungeon is Bowr; meaning a pit, cistern, or well. From Buwr (in the sense of Bo'r) a pit hill (especially one used as a cistern or a prison) a fountain. Genesis 37:24 And they took him and cast him into a pit and the pit was empty, there was no water in it. This is what happened to Joseph, as his brothers were so jealous of him because their father Jacob had given him a coat of many colors, so they thought they could put him into the pit. The Bible tells us if you dig a pit for someone else, then you will land into it yourself. This is what happens to many of us who serve the Lord, we are falsely accused and thrown into a pit. Jeremiah feels this way as they have put him in a dungeon or cistern and cast a stone upon him. We must remember how the Lord rescued Joseph from the pit to poterpher's house, to the prison, and then to the palace. God knows how to turn all things together for our good, to those who love Him and are called according to His purpose. So as the Psalmist said I will lift my eyes unto the hills from which my help comes, for my help comes from the Lord, who made the heaven and the earth.
