9 Tammuz – The Breach of Jerusalem’s Walls

God Gives Grace to the Humble

On this 9th day of Tammuz, we remember the day Jerusalem’s walls were breached — a moment when captivity seemed inevitable, and freedom felt lost.

The Spirit of God to Mayra

In this month of Pride: God gives grace to the humble.

🔗 1 Peter 5:5-6

5 Likewise, ye younger, submit yourselves unto the elder. Yea, all of you be subject one to another, and be clothed with humility: for God resisteth the proud, and giveth grace to the humble.

6 Humble yourselves therefore under the mighty hand of God, that he may exalt you in due time:

🔗 Ezekiel 8:14

14 Then he brought me to the door of the gate of the Lord’s house which was toward the north; and, behold, there sat women weeping for Tammuz.

🔗 Ezekiel 8

“Not feel sorry for Tammuz” — this phrase points straight to what the Lord showed Ezekiel. God calls the mourning of Tammuz (a pagan deity) an abomination. His people are not called to feel sorrow for Tammuz — we are called to reject every idol that steals affection, attention, or loyalty from the Holy One of Israel.
