Your Daily Bible Verse - When Fear and Discomfort Tempt Us to Turn Back (Jeremiah 42:15-16)
Description
Today’s Bible Verse:
"If you are determined to go to Egypt and you do go to settle there, then the sword you fear will overtake you there, and the famine you dread will follow you into Egypt, and there you will die." — Jeremiah 42:15–16
In Jeremiah 42, God warns His people not to run to Egypt for safety. Their fear drove them toward what looked like security, but the very dangers they tried to escape would meet them there. This passage reminds us that when we place our trust in human solutions instead of God’s direction, we risk walking right into the trouble we’re trying to avoid.
