Day 145

Jeremiah 27; Jeremiah 28; Jeremiah 29; Jeremiah 30; Jeremiah 31

The Lord sends word to many nations that they are to serve Babylon. The vessels of the Lord’s house will go into Babylon. Hananiah prophesies falsely that the Babylonian yoke will be broken. Jeremiah tells the Jews in Babylon to prepare for seventy years of captivity. Those remaining in Jerusalem will yet be scattered. Shemaiah prophesies falsely and is cursed. In the last days, Judah and Israel will be gathered to their own lands. David, their king (Christ), will reign over them. In the last days, Israel will be gathered. Ephraim has the birthright as the firstborn. The Lord will make a new covenant with Israel, to be inscribed in the heart. Then all Israel will know the Lord.
