Reading: Jeremiah 34, 37-38 and Romans 9
Scripture: Jeremiah 38:13, Then they drew Jeremiah up with ropes and lifted him out of the cistern. And Jeremiah remained in the court of the guard.
Thoughts: Jeremiah was thrown in a cistern and left there to die in the mud because of what he was telling people that if they follow God’s will to be taken by Babylon that the city would not be burned. After being brought out hopping to get a different answer the king comes to him again. Standing firm on what God had told him he tells the king the same thing. We are moving one day at a time closer to the end of days, being that no one but the Father knows the time or day, we need to be prepared to share the gospel and not change the word of God to suit the situation bust because we were put into or drawn out of the pit.
Prayer: Father God, Creator of all things, you are worthy of all praise and honor. Your Son is the only way to you. I thank you for sending your Son and the grace and mercy you pour out on us every day. I thank you for your provisions and blessings you share with us. I ask that you give us the strength to stand for you when no one else will and the we will not bend to the world’s view of You and your Son. Lead us and guide us, pour your Spirit on us and fill us each day.
