Welcome to the Word for today,

featuring the Bible Teaching of Pastor Chuck Smith,

founder of the Calvary Chapel Movement.

This radio program is a verse by verse study through the entire

Bible. And on today's edition of the word for today, Pesterchuk continues with the rotten

figs as we pick up in Jeremiah chapter 29 verse 14 and now with today's

message here's pastor Chuck. The Bible says the effectual fervent prayer of a righteous man availeth much.

How many times are we really fervent? How many times are we really desperate before God? How many

times do we really seek God with all of our hearts? God sit in that day I'll be found of you. He doesn't really like us to come with a half-hearted attitude,

but with a total commitment.

And I will be found of you, saith the Lord, and I will turn away your captivity, and I will gather you from all of the nations and from all of the places

whether I've driven you, saithith the Lord and I will bring you again

into the place whence I caused you to be carried away captive because you have said the Lord

hath raised us up prophets in Babylon.

Know that thus saith the Lord the King that sits on the throne of David

and of all the people that dwell in this city and of your brothers that are not gone forth with you into captivity.

Thus, sayeth the Lord ofos, behold I will send upon them the sword and the famine and the pestilence and will make them like vile figs that cannot be eaten they are so evil.
