WORD DIARY: THURSDAY JULY 16, 2026

 

#No more defilement!..

Jer. 2:36-37 Why do you go about so much, changing your ways? You will be disappointed by Egypt as you were by Assyria. You will also leave that place with your hands on your head, for the Lord has rejected those you trust; you will not be helped by them.

#Reject disappointments!

Jer. 3:1 “If a man divorces his wife and she leaves him and marries another man, should he return to her again? Would not the land be completely defiled? But you have lived as a prostitute with many lovers— would you now return to me?” declares the Lord.

#Return to God!

Jer. 3:2 “Look up to the barren heights and see. Is there any place where you have not been ravished? By the roadside you sat waiting for lovers, sat like a nomad in the desert. You have defiled the land with your prostitution and wickedness.

#No more defilement!

Jer. 3:3 Therefore the showers have been withheld, and no spring rains have fallen. Yet you have the brazen look of a prostitute; you refuse to blush with shame.

Let us pray: Father God, we humble ourselves before you in the name of Jesus

#Life questions and meditation:

1. Would you rather be defiled?

2. Would you rather reject defilement?
