Today's reading will cover Jeremiah Chapters 41, 42:1-17, 43, and 44:1-7, 15-30. Today we will read about Ishmael of Ammon killing Gedaliah and the Jewish people with him as well as the Babylonian people who were there with Gedaliah. We will read about Johanan and the other people with him desiring to flee to Egypt but first asking Jeremiah what God would tell them to do. After receiving a message of compassion from God assuring them that He was with them and would protect them, that they did not need to be afraid, the people refused to obey and went to Egypt out of fear. We will also read about a message that God instructed Jeremiah to give the Jewish people living in Egypt who were worshipping the false queen of heaven. In our discussion for daily application we will talk about worship of a false god, the queen of heaven, in today's society. We will also talk about God's great compassion and love for us and how we do not need to be afraid. Over and and over in the Bible we read the phrase, "Do not be afraid." God wants us to trust in Him and obey Him. By doing so we do not need to be afraid! He is always with us, loves us, takes care of us, and knows what we need before we even ask Him. As Jesus taught us, we need to seek God's kingdom first and everything else will be taken care of.
