Fasten Your Seat Belt
Wednesday, December 10, 2025Key Verse
“Thou art my battle axe and weapons of war: for with thee will I break in pieces the nations, and with thee will I destroy kingdoms.” Jeremiah 51:20
Text — Jeremiah 51:20-24
Message
Chamberlain was in an airplane when the pilot began to make some announcement, “this is flight 001, we are about to take off, please fasting your seat belt, the flight is approximately 6 hours, we are going on an altitude of 6,324,000, we will encounter some turbulence mid-air but do not panic as we have everything under control, enjoy your flight”. Chamberlain immediately obeyed by fastening his seat belt and was ready for the flight.
Prophet Jeremiah was ready to fight the battle confronting him. He knew he cannot do it on his own, he needed the help of God. To achieve this, he must fasten his seat belt of prayer to God and as well prepare his mind to fight his battles. Just like Chamberlain in our story who obeyed the pilot and fastened his seat belt in preparation for the flight, so also you must always be ready and prepared to face any challenge that comes your way.
You might be having challenges in your health, academics, family or even your spiritual life, but God is ready to hear you. Turn to Him in prayers and face your battles with faith to overcome everything. Remember the chorus which says “nothing prayers cannot do, Jesus answers prayers”.
