🔑 *KEY VERSE:*
"Thus says the Lord: if you can break my covenant with the day and my covenant with the night so that there will not be day and night in their season, then my covenant may also be broken with David my servant..." (Jeremiah 33:20,21a, NKJV)
📖 *TODAY'S READING:*
Jeremiah 33: 19-22
📜 *ONE YEAR BIBLE STUDY PLAN*
Joshua 9-11
*COMMENTARY*
In the beginning, God said, "let there be light". He divided the light from the darkness. The light he called Day and the darkness He called night (Genesis 1:3-5). Since creation till now, God's covenant of day and night has remained. It has never changed.
At another time in history, when David desired to build a temple for God, God stopped him (II Sam. 7:1-17; 1 Chr. 17:1-15). Just for his desire to do righteousness, God had to give him an everlasting reward. God assured him of his son being on his throne forever besides other promises.
During the time of Jeremiah, Judah had backslid. God allowed Babylon to besiege them. As exile was looming, the people concluded that God had abandoned His people and that no one would sit on David's throne again hence making God's covenant with David null and void. God immediately responded to their wrong conclusion. Through Jeremiah, God assured Judah that as His covenant with day and night stands since creation so must His covenant with David stand. His son must be on his throne despite the exile.
Today, God is saying, as my covenant with day and nightstands, so shall my covenant with you stand. Be sure that all His promises to you will surely come to pass. He is not a man that will change His words. Although the condition may look unfavourable, don't change your stand with God. His covenant with you is unbreakable.

🎚 *CONTROLLING THOUGHTS*
As day and night remain by God's word since creation, so shall all His promises on you remain.
🙏🏿 *PRAYER*
Lord help me to keep on believing in Your promises to me in the name of Yeshua, Amen
