Youth in God's Hand -5
Youth in God's Hand- 5
Praise!
Dear beloved Youth friends,
The Bible is full of examples of how God has used younger people in some of the most vital roles in the unfolding of his marvelous plan of redemption.
Jeremiah:
Jeremiah, the great “weeping prophet,” is one of the more remarkable characters of the Old Testament. He sought so desperately to bring rebellious Judah back into conformity with the law of God. He began his ministry in the thirteenth year of Josiah (626 B.C.) and concluded his work among his people when the Babylonian force destroyed the temple in 586 B.C. But he prophesied periodically even after the fall of the holy city.
It is possible that his preaching career spanned some sixty years or more. This suggests that Jeremiah was probably in his late teens when he was called of the Lord to be his prophet to the wicked nation.
God can use a youth of faith!
