LET HIM WHO HAS EARS TO HEAR, HEAR THE VOICE OF THE TRUMPET

Jer 4:1  "If you will return, O Israel," says the LORD, "Return to Me; And if you will put away your abominations out of My sight, Then you shall not be moved.
Jer 4:2  And you shall swear, 'The LORD lives,' In truth, in judgment, and in righteousness; The nations shall bless themselves in Him, And in Him they shall glory."
Jer 4:3  For thus says the LORD to the men of Judah and Jerusalem: "Break up your fallow ground, And do not sow among thorns.
Jer 4:4  Circumcise yourselves to the LORD, And take away the foreskins of your hearts, You men of Judah and inhabitants of Jerusalem, Lest My fury come forth like fire, And burn so that no one can quench it, Because of the evil of your doings."
Jer 4:5  Declare in Judah and proclaim in Jerusalem, and say: "Blow the trumpet in the land; Cry, 'Gather together,' And say, 'Assemble yourselves, And let us go into the fortified cities.'
Jer 4:6  Set up the standard toward Zion. Take refuge! Do not delay! For I will bring disaster from the north, And great destruction."
Jer 4:7  The lion has come up from his thicket, And the destroyer of nations is on his way. He has gone forth from his place To make your land desolate. Your cities will be laid waste, Without inhabitant.
Jer 4:8  For this, clothe yourself with sackcloth, Lament and wail. For the fierce anger of the LORD Has not turned back from us.
Jer 4:9  "And it shall come to pass in that day," says the LORD, "That the heart of the king shall perish, And the heart of the princes; The priests shall be astonished, And the prophets shall wonder."
Jer 4:10  Then I said, "Ah, Lord GOD! Surely You have greatly deceived this people and Jerusalem, Saying, 'You shall have peace,' Whereas the sword reaches to the heart."
Jer 4:11  At that time it will be said To this people and to Jerusalem, "A dry wind of the desolate heights blows in the wilderness Toward the daughter of My people; Not to fan or to cleanse;
Jer 4:12  A wind too strong for these will come for Me; Now I will also speak judgment against them."
Jer 4:13  "Behold, he shall come up like clouds, And his chariots like a whirlwind. His horses are swifter than eagles. Woe to us, for we are plundered!"
Jer 4:14  O Jerusalem, wash your heart from wickedness, That you may be saved. How long shall your evil thoughts lodge within you?
Jer 4:15  For a voice declares from Dan And proclaims affliction from Mount Ephraim:
Jer 4:16  "Make mention to the nations, Yes, proclaim against Jerusalem, That watchers come from a far country And raise their voice against the cities of Judah.
Jer 4:17  Like keepers of a field they are against her all around, Because she has been rebellious against Me," says the LORD.
Jer 4:18  "Your ways and your doings Have procured these things for you. This is your wickedness, Because it is bitter, Because it reaches to your heart."
Jer 4:19  O my soul, my soul! I am pained in my very heart! My heart makes a noise in me; I cannot hold my peace, Because you have heard, O my soul, The sound of the trumpet, The alarm of war.
Jer 4:20  Destruction upon destruction is cried, For the whole land is plundered. Suddenly my tents are plundered, And my curtains in a moment.
Jer 4:21  How long will I see the standard, And hear the sound of the trumpet?
Jer 4:22  "For My people are foolish, They have not known Me. They are silly children, And they have no understanding. They are wise to do evil, But to do good they have no knowledge."

Yes, the trump of God has been sounding out loud and clear..RETURN!

We will either move on in Him as He is moving or suffer our own self sown consequences, reaping destruction.  He is calling His body into maturity be-ing taught of, led of Holy Spirit and walking in Holy Spirit, be-ing rooted and grounded in Love. We will either allow the heart of our Father to pump His Life's Blood throughout the body, which is all summed up in Jesus Christ and His Kingdom found in Spirit or we're going to quench His heartbeat and miss the boat..Noah's.  I personally believe we are in a serious time of the Spirit of God calling out Repent..turn around and run into the ark..Salvation, the cross, deliverance and being governed by all that is within the purest sense of the word: Salvation... and just as the flood destroyed all that was unrighteous but delivered Noah and family, raising them up above it all (as His Spirit, His Kingdom does) or be swept away in the fire that is come to purify the earth.

Bro Ron....

May I add:

Jeremiah 15:15-21 (KJV) 
    O Lord, thou knowest: remember me, and visit me, and revenge me of my persecutors; take me not away in thy longsuffering: know that for thy sake I have suffered rebuke.

 Thy words were found, and I did eat them; and thy word was unto me the joy and rejoicing of mine heart: for I am called by thy name, O Lord God of hosts. 

 I sat not in the assembly of the mockers, nor rejoiced; I sat alone because of thy hand: for thou hast filled me with indignation.

Why is my pain perpetual, and my wound incurable, which refuseth to be healed? wilt thou be altogether unto me as a liar, and as waters that fail? 
   

Therefore thus saith the Lord, If thou return, then will I bring thee again, and thou shalt stand before me: and if thou take forth the precious from the vile, thou shalt be as my mouth: let them return unto thee; but return not thou unto them. 

 And I will make thee unto this people a fenced brasen wall: and they shall fight against thee, but they shall not prevail against thee: for I am with thee to save thee and to deliver thee, saith the Lord. 

 And I will deliver thee out of the hand of the wicked, and I will redeem thee out of the hand of the terrible.
