Today's reading will cover Jeremiah Chapters 38, 39:1-18, 40:1-6, 52:6-27, 2 Kings Chapter 25:3-23, and 2 Chronicles 36:17-20. Today we will read about Jeremiah being thrown into a well by leaders because he is delivering God's message for Judah that is advising the people to surrender to Babylon. We will see king Zedekiah not standing up as king and allowing his leaders to do what they want, then asking Jeremiah in secret to tell him what God says. We will also see a courageous leader from Cush (Ethiopia) who spoke up for Jeremiah and rescued him from the well. In today's reading God's prophesies concerning Babylon capturing the rest of Judah, burning it, and capturing king Zedekiah will be fulfilled. In our discussion for daily application we will talk about God's provision for Jeremiah throughout his calling to proclaim God's words as well as God's provision for the Cushite man who courageously spoke up on Jeremiah's behalf when he was thrown into the well. We will be encouraged to  be who God created us to be and do the good works God has prepared in advance for us to do. It can't possibly be as hard for us as it was for Jeremiah to keep doing what God wanted him to do- Jeremiah was repeatedly jailed, beaten, and suffered for obeying God, yet through it all God provided for him and eventually Jeremiah was able to return to Judah and live in peace, after God's judgment was rendered on Judah. Let us not be like king Zedekiah who was constantly too scared to do anything he was supposed to be doing- shepherding God's people, obeying God by surrendering, speaking up for Jeremiah. Instead, be encouraged by seeing that God will take care of us the way He took care of Jeremiah and the Cushite leader who stepped up to speak on Jeremiah's behalf and rescued him from the well. God protected him at the final fall of Babylon as a result of his faith in God, the same way He protected Jeremiah, and God can protect us, too, as we obey God and have faith in Him to do what He calls us to do.

Today's reading will cover Jeremiah Chapter 37 and Ezekiel Chapter 28:1-2, 6-19. Today we will read about dual prophecy dealing with both Tyre and Satan. In our discussion for daily application we will look more deeply at Ezekiel chapter 28 and see that God had purpose for both Satan and Tyre before they were created. In the same way, God has purpose for YOU and me! We will look at WHY God was bringing judgment on Tyre and Satan and hear God tell us He alone is God and will make things happen. Everything is in God's control. We will look at God's words to Judah- no matter what they did the Babylonians WOULD burn down the city, even if there were only a few wounded men left and everyone else had been killed in the advancing troop, the city would STILL burn. Everything God says will happen, will happen! We cannot change God's plans. We can, however, work WITH God's plans! God has plans for you and me. God had plans for the Judeans. If they had chosen to surrender to the Babylonians and work WITH God, they would have lived. But they chose to work AGAINST God and go their own way. Going their own way would not change God's plans. Going OUR own way does not change God's plans. But if we, like the Judeans, want to be as happy as possible then we should embrace the good works that God has prepared for us ahead of time to do. God knows the plans He has made for us: plans for hope and to prosper us. I don't know about YOU, but I want to be as joyful and hopeful and prosperous as I can be. That can be attained by seeking God and His plans for us and doing the good work that He has prepared for us to do. I offer to you my witness as testimony to being joyful as a result of actively pursuing God's good works and purpose for me every day.

Today's reading will cover Jeremiah Chapter 23:5-6; Chapter 31:27-28, 31-40, Chapter 33:14-26, and Ezekiel Chapter 27:1-24, 26-27. Today we will read about God's faithfulness to His promises: He was faithful to be with the people when He sent them away and He will be with them when He brings them back. He is faithful to keep His promise to bring us day and night. He promised to always have a descendent of David on His throne and Jesus is descended from David's family on both Mary and Joseph's side of the family, so whether by birth or marriage His lineage is of the family line of David. God promised to make a new promise with people, and He has. He brought us the New Covenant with Jesus atoning for and paying the price for our sins so that God would not remember them anymore. Time and time again God shows us His faithfulness. In the same way, we need to be faithful to HIM, right up to the very end. We have been learning about making God the most important one in our lives this year. God wants us to do what is right and fair. He alone is worthy of our worship. Especially as the time of His return gets closer and closer we are taught that the love of most will grow cold. We need to persevere and hold fast to the end, loving people as God does and remaining faithful to Him the way He is faithful to us. He loves us and cares for us and is always with us. We need to be faithful to Jesus and abide with Him as He taught us we need to do. We can't do anything apart from Him, but by living (abiding) with Him, we can do ALL things through Him because He strengthens us. Stay faithful, fellow brothers and sisters, no matter how hard the world becomes and the love of most grows cold.

Today's reading will cover Jeremiah Chapters 21, 22:1-9, and 34:1-7. Today we will read about King Zedekiah sending messengers to Jeremiah asking if God would do a miracle to save Judah from Babylon. God's answer is to remind the people that they are in this situation because of their sin, and if they want to live then they need to do what is right and good as well as surrender to the king of Babylon, otherwise they will die. In our discussion for daily application we will talk about doing God's will: doing what is right and fair, and not using God like a performer, whom we can look to for miracles while behaving however we want. We will look at Matthew 12:38-40. Some of the Torah Scholars and Pharisees told Jesus that they wanted to see a sign from Him. Jesus responded that it was an evil and adulterous generation that asks for a sign, and they would only receive the sign of Jonah. The king was asking for God to save Judah but his heart was not honoring or obeying God or looking to God for his salvation from Babylon. He only wanted God to save them by way of one of His miracles. We need to make sure that when we ask God about performing a miracle that we are coming to Him and asking for HIS will to be done, not our own.

Today's reading will cover Ezekiel Chapters 18 and 24:1-6, 11-14, 2 Kings: 25:1-2, 2 Chronicles Chapter 36:11-13, and Jeremiah Chapter 52:1-5. Today we will read about God's promise to hold each person accountable for their own sins rather than children paying for their parents sins or receiving blessings based on the righteousness of parents. In our discussion for daily application we will look at Matthew Chapter 7:12-27, James Chapter 2:8, 14-26, and 2 Peter Chapter 2:15, 17, and 19-22. In Matthew Chapter 7 we will read about Jesus telling us that He will not recognize us when we come before Him if we have not been following God with our hearts and bearing fruit.  Jesus tells us that we will be known by our fruit, and those who do not produce ANY fruit will be like dead branches, thrown into the fire. Salvation without changing our heart will not save us. God tells us today in Ezekiel 18 that those who do not behave righteously will still die for their sins. In 2 Peter 2 we will read that those who return to (or remain!) in sinful ways  are like dogs who return to their vomit or a pig returning to the mud after being bathed. In James Chapter 2 we will read that faith without works is dead, like a body without a spirit. We do not earn our salvation but simply SAYING we believe in God and Jesus is insufficient. Even the demons believe in God and Jesus and they are not saved! To put it simply: talk is cheap. We need to behave like believers. God knows our hearts. Salvation is not a free license to continue sinning recklessly, claiming forgiveness once and for all with no need to change our lives. God tells us today in Ezekiel to "Get rid of your sin. Get a new heart. Get a new Spirit. It does not make Him happy to see anyone die. Start doing right and live!"

Today's reading will cover Ezekiel Chapter 17. Today we will read about a parable God told Ezekiel about the kingdoms of Babylon, Judah, and Egypt. God will explain that although the king of Judah had been given power to remain in Judah he would be removed due to his failure to keep his promise to be faithful to Babylon. God, in contrast, would keep His promises: He would save a remnant of His people; He would carry the king of Judah off into exile to Babylon; Egypt would not save Judah or the king. We, like God, are to keep our promises that we make. If we are experiencing difficulty in doing so, then we should ask the Holy Spirit to comfort us and Jesus to strengthen us to keep us faithful in what we said we would do. We are made strong in Jesus when we are weak.

Today's reading will cover Ezekiel Chapters 11:1-8, 16-25, 12:1-13, 16, and 16. Today we will read about God taking Ezekiel in the Spirit to Jerusalem to prophesy against the leaders there who were telling lies to God's people. We will hear God tell the people that He took care of the people like a baby no one wanted, and provided for her like a faithful husband, but the people trusted in their riches and forgot about Him, seeking other gods to worship unfaithfully. Through it all, we will see God's declarations of love and promise to forgive them after being disciplined. In our discussion for daily application we will talk about the fact that God disciplines those whom He loves. He loves His people. The purpose of discipline is to bring people to repentance. God will always forgive us. He wants to be our God and He wants us to be His people. There is nothing that can separate us from the love of God that is in Jesus! Even before Jesus, God's love for His people was always faithful, merciful, and unending, as we read today. There is nothing we can do that will stop God from loving us! No matter what you have done, turn back to God and continue walking with Him!
