Introduction
The unfaithfulness of Israel and Judah is described. The nations are told to repent and return to the LORD.
Scripture Reading
Jeremiah 3:6-25
Today’s Key Verse: Jeremiah 3:22
Return, all of you who have turned away from the LORD; he will heal you and make you faithful.
Reflect
Reread verses 6-10. How are Israel and Judah described? What was Jeremiah told to say (verses 11-13)? What does God promise in return for the people’s confession (verses 14-18)? What do you need to confess to God today?
Pray
Merciful and loving God, I confess __________________. Thank you for your constant faithfulness, for forgiving me, and for restoring me to a right relationship with you. Amen.
Prayer Concern
Those making public confession
Tomorrow’s Reading
