The Lord blessed me to read in the book of Jeremiah today. It was so sweet! He first showed me Jeremiah 31:16 on 12/19/22. Verse 16 really comforted me, but I didn't really get the surrounding verses until today. I pray I can glean more from these scriptures. You don't need to seek a prophet, when you can get it straight from the Source: The Word of God.
Jeremiah 31:15-17 🔥
15 Thus saith the Lord; A voice was heard in Ramah, lamentation, and bitter weeping; Rahel weeping for her children refused to be comforted for her children, because they were not.
16 Thus saith the Lord; Refrain thy voice from weeping, and thine eyes from tears: for thy work shall be rewarded, saith the Lord; and they shall come again from the land of the enemy.
17 And there is hope in thine end, saith the Lord, that thy children shall come again to their own border.
My understanding:
I found that Ramah, is a HILL in Benjamin on the border of Ephraim. According to Psalms 24:3, a hill signifies the church. "Who shall ascend into the hill of the Lord? or who shall stand in his holy place?"
I believe the Lord is saying a voice was heard from His church. I for one am definitely standing on 2nd Chronicles 20:9. That's why I go to church even if my Mighty Man of Valor has stopped . It says, "If, when evil cometh upon us, as the sword, judgment, or pestilence, or famine, we stand before this house, and in thy presence, (for thy name is in this house,) and cry unto thee in our affliction, then thou wilt hear and help."
Rahel, means Rachel. Rachel means ewe. An ewe is a female lamb 🐑. We know that Jesus is the Lamb of God (John 1:29). And by the Spirit of Adoption we are Jesus' sisters. (Romans 8:17). The Father's daughters! So we are the female lambs, weeping for our prodigals! "
Our work shall be rewarded! Our standing, fasting, praying, eating His Word, and warring in the spiritual realm SHALL be rewarded! Hebrews 10:35, "Cast not away therefore your confidence, for it hath great recompense of reward."
"And there is hope in thine end." The Bible says that hope maketh not ashamed! (Romans 5:5)
"They shall come again to their own border." They will return and gather from where they've been driven and their captivity shall be turned. They will be saved and delivered in JESUS' name! (Deuteronomy 30:3)
I decree and declare that as God's Word had spoken so shall it be unto us. I decree and declare that this is our year of divine recompense and reward! In JESUS' mighty name it is so!
I pray the Lord blesses your understanding and encourages your heart today.
