We see in this chapter that though Israel had returned from exile, some were still petitioning false gods. False prophecy leads people into paths that go nowhere and which continue to be aimless, achieving no satisfactory objective.
We are fortunate to have great leadership that are watchmen on the wall for our souls and that seek the will of God daily for the direction of our church. We can always go to them for a word of direction and know that they will seek the face of God for his will for our individual lives.
If we as children of God will stay in the fold and follow God's word and the leadership of our pastors, great blessing is promised to us. Though things of this life try at times to distract us we must hold fast to the faith, and we will reap blessings upon our lives and the lives of our families.
