“Run up and down every street in Jerusalem,” says the LORD. “Look high and low; search throughout the city! If you can find even one just and honest person, I will not destroy the city.” (Jeremiah 5:1 NLT)
Just one person? Yes, one person who is just and honest; does what is right and tries to be faithful to God (NLT); executes judgement and seeks the truth (NKJV). God would have pardoned Jerusalem for all her idolatry and disgusting sins for one righteous person. Sodom would also have been spared for ten righteous persons as Abraham prayed.
Just me, just you, can bring God’s forgiveness and deliverance to our country, city, community and family. We may be the only living testimony that will bring people to Christ. The way we live our lives has spiritual consequences on our family, community, city and nation. What is your choice?
ACTION: Choose to do what is right, be faithful to God at such a time as this!
PRAYER: We can do all things through You who strengthen us, Oh Lord.
