Tuesday
Read Jeremiah 31:27-34
27 “I, the Lord, say that the time is coming when I
will fill the land of Israel and Judah with people and animals. 28And
just as I took care to uproot, to pull down, to overthrow, to destroy, and to
demolish them, so I will take care to plant them and to build them up. 29When
that time comes, people will no longer say, ‘The parents ate the sour grapes,
But the children got the sour taste.’
30Instead, all those who eat sour grapes will
have their own teeth set on edge; and they will all die because of their own
sin.”
31 The Lord says, “The time is coming when I
will make a new covenant with the people of Israel and with the people of
Judah. 32It will not be like the old covenant that I made with their
ancestors when I took them by the hand and led them out of Egypt. Although I
was like a husband to them, they did not keep that covenant. 33The
new covenant that I will make with the people of Israel will be this: I will
put my law within them and write it on their hearts. I will be their God, and
they will be my people. 34None of them will have to teach his
fellow-citizen to know the Lord,
because all will know me, from the least to the greatest. I will forgive their
sins and I will no longer remember their wrongs. I, the Lord, have spoken.”
Think
I will put my law within them and write it on their hearts.
Pray
Put your law within me. Write it on
my heart.
