God Restores
18 “Thus says the Lord:
Behold, I will restore the fortunes of the tents of Jacob
and have compassion on his dwellings;
the city shall be rebuilt on its mound,
and the palace shall stand where it used to be.
19 Out of them shall come songs of thanksgiving,
and the voices of those who celebrate.
I will multiply them, and they shall not be few;
I will make them honored, and they shall not be small.
20 Their children shall be as they were of old,
and their congregation shall be established before me,
and I will punish all who oppress them.
21 Their prince shall be one of themselves;
their ruler shall come out from their midst;
I will make him draw near, and he shall approach me,
for who would dare of himself to approach me?
declares the Lord.
22 And you shall be my people,
and I will be your God.”
23 Behold the storm of the Lord!
Wrath has gone forth,
a whirling tempest;
it will burst upon the head of the wicked.
24 The fierce anger of the Lord will not turn back
until he has executed and accomplished
the intentions of his mind.
In the latter days you will understand this.
Jeremiah 30:18-24

God Restores
The nature of the Living God is to have compassion. He bids his people return to him. He is slow to anger and abounding in steadfast love. His desire is not that anyone should die eternally, but that all should repent of their sins and live with him forever. His desire is for you to be his people and for he to be your God. This is accomplished by the work of Jesus on the Cross. In the shed blood of your Savior, your sins are forgiven and a right Spirit is set in your heart. The response to sin is wrath and anger. There is One who stops and stills the that anger. That One is Jesus Christ. He has accomplished this for you. He stands as your Savior and Redeemer. The fierce anger of the Lord has been executed on this Jesus. He is victorious over all things and it is all for you.
