Today’s Scripture
“The day is coming… when I will make a new covenant with the people of Israel and Judah” (Jeremiah 31.31).

 

 
Jeremiah 31 brings a message of hope. In the midst of breaking down, God is doing a new thing… he is going to build up and to plant. The Old Covenant was established through Moses and the New through Jesus’ blood.

 
Both the old and new Covenants were with Israel. The promise is that Israel will be saved, will come to know Jesus, will receive the Holy Spirit and Jerusalem will be inhabited abundantly. As Christians, we have been grafted into the existing covenant community. Ultimately, the new covenant will be fulfilled in the Millennium when Israel acknowledges Jesus as Messiah and Lord.
