Four passages and a short devotional a day to take you through the whole Bible in one year — right alongside your Spirit Church family.
Real questions from Spirit readers on this passage, answered by our pastors.
Today the thing Jeremiah spent forty years warning about finally happens. The wall is breached, the city burns, and the last thing King Zedekiah ever sees is the death of his sons.
And in the same reading, Moses teaches us to number our days, and Psalm 91 spreads its wings. The darkest chapter of the Old Testament comes escorted by its strongest psalms. That placement is for you.
Jerusalem fell exactly as spoken, which means even the worst day in Judah's history confirmed that God's word holds. Terrible comfort, but real: the same reliability behind the judgment stands behind every promise of restoration, already signed and jarred in chapter 32.
And notice who the fire could not touch: a prophet in chains and a Cushite who trusted. Psalm 91 was proven in the ashes. When your own walls are breached, dwell there, in the shelter of the Most High, the address Moses said has housed every generation. Cities fall. The dwelling place does not.
