The Day I Traded My Prison Suit for a Preaching Suit
Steve Wagers
Jeremiah 52:31-34
D. L. Moody said, ''I am glad there's a depth in the Bible I know nothing about, for it shows its Divine authorship. A man once came to me with a very difficult passage and said, 'Mr. Moody, how do you explain that?' I replied, 'I don't.' 'But how do you interpret it?' 'I don't interpret it.' 'Well, how do you understand it?' 'I don't understand it.' 'What do you do with it?' 'I believe it! I believe many things I don't understand.''
A group of church boys were constantly playing pranks around the church. One day, they found the pastor's Bible and decided to glue some pages together. The next Sunday the pastor got up to read his text, ''And Noah took his wife...'' he turned the page and continued to read, ''and she was 300 cubits long, 50 cubits wide and 30 cubits tall.'' He looked to the congregation and said, ''I've been preaching this Bible over 40 years, and there's still things I don't understand.''
A strange event takes place right before the end of Jeremiah's prophecy, that to be quite honest, I don't understand.
Jehoiachin became king at the age of 18. His father was Jehoiakim, a wicked, ungodly man. Jehoiachin was following in the footsteps of his father.
Nebuchadnezzar took him and put him in prison for 37 years. One day, an evil king named Evilmerodach released him from prison.
Why? WE are not told, thus we do not know. But, we do know that his pardon was something that he did not deserve.
He was showed grace by someone greater than himself.
One day, we were in prison, and didn't deserve to get out, but one day Jesus took the keys, unlocked the cell, and let us go free.
That was the day that I traded my prison suit for a preaching suit.
1) A New DAY!
The day came he was released from prison.
A) No More SHACKLES (31c)
B) No More SHAME (32)
It's amazing that the king would even SPEAK to him, much less SEND for him.
