Lamb to be slaughtered I

Jeremiah had a vision of a lamb that would be brought to be slaughtered. Unfortunately it was a vision of himself. The people of Israel were planning on killing him, since he had been exposing their evil practices and lifestyles. But this did not, in anyway, make Jeremiah afraid. He boldly confronted the nation of Israel with their sins. Do we have the courage to stand up for what is right and tell others when they go wrong?

Jeremiah 11:19 But I was like a lamb or an ox that is brought to the slaughter; and I knew not that they had devised devices against me, saying, Let us destroy the tree with the fruit thereof, and let us cut him off from the land of the living, that his name may be no more remembered.

Are we willing to be slaughtered for the sake of kingdom of god?Are we ready to fight the evil practices and life style.
