Terror on Every Side!

It was on my 17th birthday that I first heard - or felt - God's voice. In those days, we seemed to have a happy extended family in Anathoth and I was welcome in it. Times are different now... From a family of priests in the peaceful reign of good King Josiah, came a young man, Jeremiah, bringing words from God to his people. It was no message for the fainthearted, either. It was a message of Terror on Every Side! A young king and a young prophet. What could they do together for the people of Israel? Could the disaster be averted? Jeremiah was a prophet of God for over 40 years, warning of judgement on the nation of Judah and all the nations around. Few would listen at all, and fewer still would take him seriously. Jeremiah lived to see the prophecies of destruction come true. No-one would believe his words until it was too late - and then there was Terror on Every Side! Terror on Every Side!

"I was twenty-one years old when the letter arrived. It was the most exciting letter I ever received. Written in my father's untidy scrawl, it had obviously been sent in the joy of discovery and his happiness showed in every word. The Book of the Law of God had been found!" King Josiah hears the words of God and everything starts to change. Idolatry is forced to take a backward step and the true servants of God have some breathing space. Josiah and Jeremiah continue their work together. Let the Passover celebrations begin! Terror on Every Side!

Josiah's tireless work for God continues to the​ very end, but can a king really change an unwilling nation? Josiah was close to death as the chariot passed out of the valley of Jezreel, and well before the small convoy stopped for the night, the last great king of Judah was dead. Josiah's sons Jehoahaz and Jehoiakim rule after him​, and Judah enters moral free fall. As darkness had fallen on me, locked in the stocks, so darkness was falling on Judah. But what about the individuals who listened to Josiah and shared his faith in God? Will God protect them when the Babylonian army arrives? Terror on Every Side!

Jehoiakim's body is dumped outside the gates of Jerusalem, and his son Jeconiah reigns briefly over a city under siege. "Nebuchadnezzar's army surrounded Jerusalem, preventing any from coming or going, patiently and methodically strangling the life from a beleaguered city in which supplies, once used, could not be replaced." Jeconiah surrenders and King Nebuchadnezzar takes him to Babylon, as Jeremiah had predicted, along with thousands of others. Zedekiah promises to be Nebuchadnezzar's vassal, but is weak and easily led. Will he listen to Jeremiah or to his advisors? Can Jeremiah survive the sly schemes of his enemies or will the promised disaster overtake them all? In Judah, the darkness is deepening.

Terror on Every Side! The Life of Jeremiah: Volume 5 – No Remedy (Volume 5 of 5) Mark Morgan (Bible Tales Online – www.BibleTales.online) "But [Judah] kept mocking the messengers of God, despising his words and scoffing at his prophets, until the wrath of the Lord rose against his people, until there was no remedy." 2 Chronicles 36:16 No-one would believe Jeremiah's words until it was too late – and now there is Terror on Every Side! The Babylonian army waits outside the city and Zedekiah continues to vacillate instead of providing godly leadership – as food starts to run out. The only hope is to follow Jeremiah's advice and surrender to King Nebuchadnezzar. But who would dare to do that? "I had known for 40 years that this devastation was coming, but that knowledge had in no way prepared me for the reality I saw spread out before me that day."
