November 16 - Time of the Church

Jeremiah 31:1-17, 23-34 - "28And it shall come to pass that as I have watched over them to pluck up and break down, to overthrow, destroy, and bring harm, so I will watch over them to build and to plant, declares the LORD." Is this at all disturbing to you, or is it a comfort?

Matthew 27:1-10 - Notice how the prophecies are not only concerned with big picture stuff: "I will make a new covenant" but also with details such as the coins and the field. We often think of nothing being too big for God to handle. Certainly Jesus' death and resurrection displays this. But in this passage we also see that no item is too small to be beyond God's control.
