Weekly Devotional

Jeremiah 31:7
7 For thus says the Lord: Sing aloud with gladness for Jacob, and raise shouts for the chief of the nations; proclaim, give praise, and say, "Save, O Lord, your people, the remnant of Israel."
 
Things eventually turn out right, and when they do, praise God.
 
Jeremiah wrote his words to the people of Israel who were going to return from exile in Babylon. They were gone seventy years, a whole lifetime away from the land that God had given them, and it would be natural to expect them to give up hope. But Jeremiah gave them an oracle to remind them that God had not forgotten them. In fact, God was going to bring them back from exile and return them to the land.
 
Despair can be easy to come by when we can’t see the end results. When we get the bad news of a diagnosis, or when our job has moved and so we either have to move too or find ourselves unemployed, or when the creeping dark of depression settles in—it can be hard to imagine that we may have a future. It may be hard to have hope that God will carry us through to the other side. But God does, and God will.
 
Just like the exile was temporary, and God remained faithful to the Israelites, so too does God remain faithful to us in our afflictions. God watches over us and carries us through, so that on the other side of whatever is happening to us, we can rejoice. God wants to carry us to that place where we can sing and dance for joy at all the wonderful ways God has saved us.
 
God’s faithfulness will always give us reason to hope.
