Reading to reflect: Jeremiah 12
¿Why does the path of the wicked prosper?
In this chapter we read about a question of the prophet to God, a very popular question in many- Why is the path of the wicked prosperous, and do all those who behave disloyally have good?
This is the second of Jeremiah's laments, as we can see, the prosperity of the wicked displeases Jeremiah and demands that they be punished. God reproaches him for his impatience and tells him that the present situation constitutes a mere prelude to what will come next
Jeremiah makes the claim before God, why is the path of the wicked prosperous?
The path of the ungodly prospered: a question that today is unsatisfactory to many Christians and the question of the prosperity of the ungodly (why God does not act against them) as I said is a popular issue, then, we look at this complaint in job21.7- fifteen; psalm73.3-12; Habakkuk 1.2-4 etc., however a definitive answer is not offered, but it is always clear that God keeps all things under control. In the end the wicked will perish, and the righteousness of God will be indicated.
The actutud of the believers should be to leave everything in the hands of God especially their own lives
We must understand that we are the special people of God and there is no other people more blessed than his people
We are called to believe the promises of God, and we should not dwell on things that belong to God alone, it is clear that everything that happens God allows and it is his will, we should only trust and know that things happen because of something
We are called to bless even the wicked who act in a bad way and we prosperous their way
