God sure can be creative in His punishments!


I find some of God's punishments interesting and even inspired.  Check this out!

Jeremiah 16:10-13(NKJV)
10“And it shall be, when you show this people all these words, and they say to you, ‘Why has the Lord pronounced all this great disaster against us? Or what is our iniquity? Or what is our sin that we have committed against the Lord our God?’ 
11then you shall say to them, ‘Because your fathers have forsaken Me,’ says the Lord; ‘they have walked after other gods and have served them and worshiped them, and have forsaken Me and not kept My law. 
12And you have done worse than your fathers, for behold, each one follows the dictates of his own evil heart, so that no one listens to Me. 
13Therefore I will cast you out of this land into a land that you do not know, neither you nor your fathers; and there you shall serve other gods day and night, where I will not show you favor.’

Isn't that inspired.  It's as if God is saying "You want to serve other gods?  Well you're going to get your wish.  Not only are you going to be taken into captivity but in captivity you are going to have to serve other gods until you are sick to death of it! " 

I like it!
