What does Jeremiah 10:24 mean? →

Passage Context

22Behold, the noise of the bruit is come, and a great commotion out of the north country, to make the cities of Judah desolate, and a den of dragons.
23O LORD, I know that the way of man is not in himself: it is not in man that walketh to direct his steps.
24O LORD, correct me, but with judgment; not in thine anger, lest thou bring me to nothing.
25Pour out thy fury upon the heathen that know thee not, and upon the families that call not on thy name: for they have eaten up Jacob, and devoured him, and consumed him, and have made his habitation desolate.

Devotional Reflection

LoveGratitudeHopeCompassionAwe

God cherishes us! In addition to being holy, God is also just. None of us could match His wonderful perfection if He didn't chastise us with love and care. But despite the fact that we don't deserve it, our God has decided to show us mercy and kindness. He corrects us and molds us more into His image.

Prayer

Father, You are holy and righteous, and I really want to emulate You more. But because You are so great in comparison to me, I beg You, Father, to humble me and reprimand me gently. In Jesus' precious name, I pray. Amen.
