Beware of False Prophets who Dishearten the Righteous. Ezekiel 12-13. 2026

Published on by kendraskeLeave a comment

Read the Bible in 2 Years: Ezekiel 12-13

According to Ezekiel 13:22 ESV, false prophets not only encouraged the wicked such that they didn’t turn from evil to be saved, but they also “disheartened the righteous falsely.”

Jesus said, “In the world you will have tribulation. But take heart; I have overcome the world.” (John 16:33b ESV)

The Apostle Peter wrote, “Beloved, do not be surprised at the fiery trial when it comes upon you to test you, as though something strange were happening to you. But rejoice insofar as you share Christ’s sufferings, that you may also rejoice and be glad when his glory is revealed. If you are insulted for the name of Christ, you are blessed, because the Spirit of glory and of God rests upon you.” (1 Peter 4:12-14 ESV)

One of the biggest takeaways I had from watching the movie and reading the book “The Insanity of God” was that we in the USA can encourage our persecuted family around the globe by using the freedom we have to share the good news. Let’s do that!

Please join me in praying for our persecuted brothers and sisters on the other side of the globe, and let’s get busy making disciples of Jesus!

God Marks Those who are His. Ezekiel 8-11. 2026

Published on by kendraskeLeave a comment

Read the Bible in 2 Years: Ezekiel 8-11

And the LORD said to him, “Pass through the city, through Jerusalem, and put a mark on the foreheads of the men who sigh and groan over all the abominations that are committed in it.”

And to the others he said in my hearing, “Pass through the city after him, and strike. Your eye shall not spare, and you shall show no pity. Kill old men outright, young men and maidens, little children and women, but touch no one on whom is the mark. And begin at my sanctuary.” So they began with the elders who were before the house.

Ezekiel 9:4-6 ESV

Does your heart break for the sin that fills our nation?

Do you grieve for the wicked who are perishing all around you?

Have you been marked by the Lord and sealed with His Spirit?

And You Shall Know That I am the LORD. Ezekiel 6-7. 2026

Published on by kendraskeLeave a comment

Read the Bible in 2 Years: Ezekiel 6-7

Seven times in 41 verses, the Lord says either “you” or “they” “shall know that I am the LORD.” These words are spoken not in the midst of blessing, but in the midst of judgment, in the sending of pestilence and famine and sword.

Pray for our nation. Pray for your neighbors. Pray for your family. Pray for yourself.

“Their silver and gold are not able to deliver them in the day of the wrath of the Lord” (Ezekiel 7:19b) and neither can ours.

Take care, brothers, lest there be in any of you an evil, unbelieving heart, leading you to fall away from the living God. But exhort one another every day, as long as it is called “today,” that none of you may be hardened by the deceitfulness of sin.

Hebrews 3:12-13 ESV

And he is before all things, and in him all things hold together.

God watches over Cities & Nations & Individuals. Memphis Storm Edition. Jeremiah 38-39. 2026

Published on by kendraskeLeave a comment

Read the Bible in 2 Years: Psalm 25, Jeremiah 38-39

* Sorry, no loud bugs in the background today … Instead you get to hear the humming of my generator. 🤯⚡🔌

The word of the LORD came to Jeremiah while he was shut up in the court of the guard: “Go, and say to Ebed-melech the Ethiopian, ‘Thus says the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel: Behold, I will fulfill my words against this city for harm and not for good, and they shall be accomplished before you on that day. But I will deliver you on that day, declares the LORD, and you shall not be given into the hand of the men of whom you are afraid. For I will surely save you, and you shall not fall by the sword, but you shall have your life as a prize of war, because you have put your trust in me, declares the LORD.’”

God is Sovereign, Yet Man is Still Responsible. Jeremiah 24-26. 2026

Published on by kendraskeLeave a comment

Read the Bible in 2 Years: Psalm 17-18, Jeremiah 24-26

Thus says the LORD, the God of Israel: Like these good figs, so I will regard as good the exiles from Judah, whom I have sent away from this place to the land of the Chaldeans. I will set my eyes on them for good, and I will bring them back to this land. I will build them up, and not tear them down; I will plant them, and not pluck them up. I will give them a heart to know that I am the LORD, and they shall be my people and I will be their God, for they shall return to me with their whole heart.

Jeremiah 24:5-7 ESV

Thus says the LORD: Stand in the court of the LORD’s house, and speak to all the cities of Judah that come to worship in the house of the LORD all the words that I command you to speak to them; do not hold back a word. It may be they will listen, and every one turn from his evil way, that I may relent of the disaster that I intend to do to them because of their evil deeds.

Beware of False Prophets! 🚨 Jeremiah 22-23. 2026

Published on by kendraskeLeave a comment

Read the Bible in 2 Years: Psalm 16, Jeremiah 22-23

Thus says the LORD of hosts: “Do not listen to the words of the prophets who prophesy to you, filling you with vain hopes. They speak visions of their own minds, not from the mouth of the LORD. They say continually to those who despise the word of the LORD, ‘It shall be well with you’; and to everyone who stubbornly follows his own heart, they say, ‘No disaster shall come upon you.’”

Jeremiah 23:16-17 ESV

Enter by the narrow gate. For the gate is wide and the way is easy that leads to destruction, and those who enter by it are many. For the gate is narrow and the way is hard that leads to life, and those who find it are few.

Beware of false prophets, who come to you in sheep’s clothing but inwardly are ravenous wolves.

Matthew 7:13-15 ESV

Don’t Be Surprised When you Obey God … And Get Hated 🥺 Jeremiah 20-21. 2026

Read the Bible in 2 Years: Psalm 15, Jeremiah 20-21

Now Pashhur the priest, the son of Immer, who was chief officer in the house of the LORD, heard Jeremiah prophesying these things. Then Pashhur beat Jeremiah the prophet, and put him in the stocks that were in the upper Benjamin Gate of the house of the LORD.

Loving Your Enemies… and Praying for their Harm? Jeremiah 18-19. 2026

Published on by kendraskeLeave a comment

Read the Bible in 2 Years: Psalm 14, Jeremiah 18-19

What do we do with “imprecatory prayers” like the one found in Jeremiah 18:23 ESV, “Forgive not their iniquity, nor blot out their sin from your sight. Let them be overthrown before you; deal with them in the time of your anger”?

How do we reconcile Jeremiah’s prayer with Paul’s writings in Romans 12:17-21 ESV?

Repay no one evil for evil, but give thought to do what is honorable in the sight of all. If possible, so far as it depends on you, live peaceably with all.

Beloved, never avenge yourselves, but leave it to the wrath of God, for it is written, “Vengeance is mine, I will repay, says the Lord.”

To the contrary, “if your enemy is hungry, feed him; if he is thirsty, give him something to drink; for by so doing you will heap burning coals on his head.” Do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good.”

Romans 12:17-21 ESV

Listen in to a few of my thoughts.

For more on this, I recommend you listen to Austin Cox’s sermon from October 20, 2024 at Collierville Bible Church on Imprecatory Psalms. Listen to it on Spotify here or Apple Podcasts here.

BLESSED is the Man who TRUSTS in the LORD. Jeremiah 16-17. 2026

Published on by kendraskeLeave a comment

Read the Bible in 2 Years: Psalm 13, Jeremiah 16-17

Thus says the LORD:
“Cursed is the man who trusts in man
and makes flesh his strength, whose heart turns away from the LORD.

He is like a shrub in the desert, and shall not see any good come. He shall dwell in the parched places of the wilderness, in an uninhabited salt land.

Blessed is the man who trusts in the LORD, whose trust is the LORD.

He is like a tree planted by water, that sends out its roots by the stream, and does not fear when heat comes, for its leaves remain green, and is not anxious in the year of drought, for it does not cease to bear fruit.”

Jeremiah 17:5-8
