Friday – Prophets
Reading – Jeremiah 48-50
Highlight Verse:
“In those days,” says the Lord, “no sin will be found in Israel or in Judah, for I will forgive the remnant I preserve.”
Jeremiah 50:20 NLT
Just as yesterday’s reading was full of blessings and wonderful news; today’s reading is full of curses and bad news.
The world in Jeremiah’s time was full of evil and warfare.
God’s people were few.
But those who listened to the Word of God through Jeremiah found their way back to the promised land and lived in forgiveness and restoration.
Sound like today? I thought so to.
The bottom line from the “doom and gloom” prophet is, live for the Lord and there is hope.
It took hundreds of years from this time until Jesus brought the fulfillment of hope.
But Hope came!
Those who believed found Him.
Just as they can today!
Have you found Hope?
Are you living in faith trusting for that Hope?
