WHY YOU MAY NOT BE CALLED TO MARRY OR have the things you want NOW!!!
Jeremiah 16: 2-4: ‘You must not marry or have daughters or son in this place. They will die of deadly diseases.
Jeremiah lived at a time of judgement, when everyone was to be destroyed, that was his message. It would not be sensible to become attached to the people, who were to be destroyed? He would have been less effective in his ministry; suffering further distractions of personal grief to lost loved ones. He too would have died, & not serve his God given purpose.
God does not want us to have a wife/ husband, whom he knows will die or things that will be to our detriment. Sometimes we think God is harsh in his decisions because we want what we want NOW, but we don’t see the bigger picture, or the grief he is sparing us.
It’s human nature to want what every one else has, & sometimes even at much cost. Similarly the people requested a King & were given Saul. Although they were warned about the consequential treatment they would receive, they ignore the warnings. That sounds kind of silly doesn’t it, but sometimes we get so blind by our selfish desires, we really do not pay any attention to the long term effects.
Some of us want houses, cars to keep up with the Jones’s. So we may accept offers that are out of Gods will, convincing ourselves its ok. The same things goes for a wife, husband etc. We ignore the warnings, Gods disapproval; try to negotiate with God why we should have this thing or person, which then becomes a rod for our backs later. Again similar to the requested Saul who mistreated the people.
If we just learn to trust in God’s rule & timing in whatever it is we are waiting for, not settling for a substitute Saul, we will receive our anointed King David. God always wants the best for us, no matter how long or hard it seems in coming, & it always serves to benefit not just us, but many others.
