Turn Back ( Jeremiah 2 )

In Jeremiah 6 v 16  we read ,'Stand at the crossroads and look ; ask for the ancient paths,ask where the good way is, and walk in it'.Jeremiah  lived through dramatic times,awful times,his ministry lasted about 40 years.They were bad times,what was left of the nation, mainly Judah,had learned no lessons from what had happened to to the other ten tribes of Israel,because of their sinful ways.God had to Judge them,removing from the land.It was Jeremiahs task to call them back to God whom they had forsaken. Jeremiah 6 v 16 is a cry for the nation to return the old paths, devotion to  God and to his ways ,a way of holiness,  faithfulness ,to the way of justice, to the way of obedience,to the way of love.We live in times when many of Gods  are turning away from Gods  ways.,and that is very serious,and sadly it is not an exaggeration . We will consider this in relation to our present times, we will do this with the help  of a devotional by the late Selwyn Hughes,and of course with the help of the Holy Spirit.
