Introduction
Israel was made up of twelve tribes named for the sons of Jacob. After King Solomon died, the ten northern tribes formed their own kingdom (Israel), while the two southernmost tribes formed the kingdom of Judah. Jeremiah envisions a time when the LORD will rebuild Israel, the people will return to their own land, and the twelve tribes will be restored as one nation.
Scripture Reading
Jeremiah 31:1-22
Today’s Key Verse: Jeremiah 31:17
“There is hope for your future; your children will come back home. I, the LORD, have spoken.”
Reflect
Jeremiah envisions a time when all the tribes will be restored as one nation of God’s people, and the kingdom of Israel will be rebuilt. Reread verses 7-14. How is the homecoming and the restored nation envisioned? What brokenness do you see in our world today? How can healing among nations begin? What can communities of faith do to help?
Pray
God of love and mercy, your world suffers from brokenness, war, and conflict. Forgive us for the ways in which we fail to live in community, and reveal opportunities for reconciliation and new life. Amen.
Prayer Concern
Nations embroiled in civil war.
Tomorrow’s Reading
Jeremiah 31:23-40: The prophet Jeremiah describes God’s new covenant with the people.
