Jeremiah 33:19-26
In those days and at that time I will make a righteous Branch sprout from David’s line; he will do what is just and right in the land.
I will make the descendants of David my servant and the Levites who minister before me as countless as the stars in the sky and as measureless as the sand on the seashore.
The word of the Lord came to Jeremiah: “Have you not noticed that these people are saying, ‘The Lord has rejected the two kingdoms he chose’? So they despise my people and no longer regard them as a nation. This is what the Lord says: ‘If I have not made my covenant with day and night and established the laws of heaven and earth, then I will reject the descendants of Jacob and David my servant and will not choose one of his sons to rule over the descendants of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob. For I will restore their fortunes and have compassion on them.
Why?
Restore the David my servant and the Levites is the promise of the Lord, and let his descendants as countless like the stars in the sky and as measureless as the sand on the seashore.
The Lord won't forsake his servant and promise forever but love them forever.
The Branch sprouting from David's line is not from the kings in Jerusalem but came from the descendant of the priest in exiled people.
Because the Lord has established the day and the night so the Lord will restore the rule to make God's people return and establish new descendants of David.
How?
Can I stand firm in the faith of Jesus Christ? Jesus is my savior and my way. May my life may shine the light of Jesus!
