"There is a balm ... Rises to Gilead "
(Jeremiah 8:22 and 46:11)


The streets are still bustling. The rubble and debris on the sidewalks of troublemakers ... Sadness on the faces of the policemen. And the marks of blood of the slain.
And the "Daughter of my people," says your dead.
Weighs the silence in my town. The air stopped. Tree leaves do not agitate and sparrows refuse to fly. The white doves no longer coo ...
Today, the sun came shuddering, covered by a dark reddish shade.
- What is it they did to my people? (Jeremiah 11.1).
"Vi" then Nehemiah among the rubble of Jerusalem, the rest of the walls and what was left of the wrath of the "Enemy". The gates had eaten, the bolts destroyed. But the impression was so vivid it still seemed to exhale smoke, smell of things burning and stinging watery eyes ...
The fallen walls. Young people taken captive. Only a few old men escaped the Holocaust (Nehemiah 1:3). And no funeral to those who fell in battle.
For many days I was crying. And nothing had. And said to the God of heaven, Thou art great and we fear you. Look at me, O God, and hear the prayers that do day and night in favor of thy servants. I confess that we, thy children of Israel sinned. With our actions we have sinned against You and have not hearkened unto thy commandments (Nehemiah 1.4-7).
 One day call us and set him beacon to the nations (Isaiah 49.6). Much more than the excellence of being reedificadores walls and cities, have ordained us to reach all nations, to be light and salvation, life and hope, to the ends of the earth.
 Yes, because the earth is the Lord's and the fullness thereof, the world and those who dwell therein (Psalm 24:1). No matter the nationality, language, culture, color, or the traditions of the people. All and all we are the Lord's property.
The rulers have nothing and know swimming. The kingdoms of this world are in the hands of the Sovereign God.
While thousands of people in the streets and people fainting, heart tight and simple soul, the Enemy design traps ...
But the Lord God watches: Operating I, who can reverse it? (Isaiah 43.13).
This battle is not of flesh and blood, but a war against the hosts of wickedness in the heavenly places (Ephesians 6:11). The Lord battle for us.
Babylon fell and was crushed. Weep for her (Jeremiah 51.8).
What we expect here? What can the "kings of the earth"? What plot? (Psalm 2:2). They can not discern. Are far from the Lord.
" kings, be wise, let yourselves warned, judges of the earth" (Psalm 2:10).
Come, let us to the Lord, for He has torn, and he will heal us; made the wound, and bind (Hosea 5.1).

Surrender yourself to Him completely. And rest.
No balm in Gilead. There is a Great Physician there.
rise! (Jeremiah 46.11 ª)
