659.

God Invites Repentance

1.

Today's Passage: Jeremiah 3:11-25


Get to know your bible. It will become a good friend.

Or find the passage NASB version on Bible Gateway here.
You can search for other versions there as well. Versions even in foreign languages.

Or, for your convenience I have typed the verses below from the
New Living Testament (NLT).




2.

Thank You for meeting me, LORD.
I welcome you into this place.
Please prepare my heart Jehovah.
Thank you for insight.



3.

21st Strategy.
(And, But, So) the LORD says/said:...


  • Open your heart in prayer.
  • Ask God to give you wisdom from His Scripture.
  • Read the passage.
  • Re-read the passage.
  • Is the LORD speaking?
  • Is He addressing the Israelites? the world? lost sinners? a particular person?
  • What is He saying?
  • Can you glean insight or wisdom from His words?
  • How, when, why?
  • What will you do with what you have had laid on your heart today?
  • Ask God to give you what you need.
  • Trust Him to do just that.
  • Remember He listens to his children.

11. Then the LORD said to me, "Even faithless Israel is less guilty than treacherous Judah!
12. Therefore, go and give this message to Israel. This is what the LORD says:

"O Israel, my faithless people, come home to me again, for I am merciful.
I will not be angry with you forever.
13. Only acknowledge your guilt. Admit that you rebelled against the LORD your God and committed adultery against him by worshiping idols under every greet tree. Confess that you refused to listen to my voice. I, the LORD, have spoken!

14. "Return home, you wayward children," says the LORD, "for I am your master, I will bring you back to the land of Israel — one from his town and two from that family — from wherever you are scattered.
15. And I will give you shepherds after my own heart, who will guide you with knowledge and understanding.

16. "And when your land is once more filled with people," says the LORD, "you will no longer wish for 'the good old days' when you possessed the Ark of the LORD's Covenant. You will not miss those days or even remember them, and there will be no need to rebuild the Ark.
17. In that day Jerusalem will be known as 'The Throne of the LORD.' All nations will come there to honor the LORD. They will no longer stubbornly follow their own evil desires.
18. In those days the people of Judah and Israel will return together from exile in the north. They will return to the land I gave their ancestors as an inheritance forever.

19. "I thought to myself, 'I would love to treat you as my own children!' I wanted nothing more than to give you this beautiful land — the finest possession in the world. I looked forward to your calling me 'Father.' and I wanted you never to turn from me.
20. But you have been unfaithful to me, you people of Israel! You have been like a faithless wife who leaves her husband. I, the LORD, have spoken."

21. Voices are heard high on the windswept mountains, the weeping and pleading of Israel's people. For they have chosen crooked paths and have forgotten the LORD their God.

22. "My wayward children," says the LORD, "come back to me, and I will heal your wayward hearts."

"Yes, we're coming.," the people reply, "for you are the LORD our God.
23. Our worship of idols on the hills and our religious orgies on the mountains are a delusion. Only in the LORD our God will Israel ever find salvation.
24. From childhood we have watched as everything our ancestors worked for — their flocks and herds, their sons and daughters — was squandered on a delusion.
25. Let us now lie down in shame and cover ourselves with dishonor, for we and our ancestors have sinned against the LORD our God. From our childhood to this day we have never obeyed him."
Jeremiah 3:11-25 NLT

“And I will give you shepherds after my own heart, who will guide you with knowledge and understanding.”

Thank you LORD for all the shepherds you have given me since I was a young child

Thank you for a life spent worshiping and loving you. Even my failures you have covered. Thank you.
