Jer 5:22 do you not fear Me?’ says the LORD. ‘Will you not tremble at My presence, Who have placed the sand as the bound of the sea, by a perpetual decree, that it cannot pass beyond it? And though its waves toss to and fro, yet they cannot prevail; though they roar, yet they cannot pass over it.
In this portion, God describes himself as the creator and sustainer of the planet. It is him who controls nature. He is the one who has placed the sand for the bounds of the seas. The most tremendous waves cannot displace nor pass over this simple barrier.
Upon this account he demands our fear. Shall we not tremble before him who gives such incontestable proofs of his almighty power and sovereign dominion? Surely , this is a good reason why we should fear him. This is the Lord’s doing.
When the waves roar in our lives, our God turns away wrath and quiets the foaming rages. The waters cannot pass over or break our lives.Job 38:11 when I said, ‘This far you may come, but no farther, and here your proud waves must stop!
