An Apocalyptic Blessing

Jeremiah & Lamentations

Synopsis: Jeremiah was a prophet to Jerusalem at what might be considered the worse time of their history. He lamented the situation and yet had to tell of the totality of the destruction. Even with that he found reason for thanksgiving in the future with God.

We do that when we gather at the Lord’s Table. We know it only in the temporary setting but celebrate what God will do in the future. In the end, all who trust in the Lord will find glorious provisions at His table.

Scripture Text (NLT): Jeremiah1:4-12; Lamentations 4:22a, 5:19; Jeremiah 33:1-18
