—Jeremiah 22:20-23
by: Michaella Osborn.
God takes injustice seriously—He even punishes whole cities for it. In this passage, punishment for unrighteousness was given to Jerusalem. God said that He tried to correct them when they were living in prosperity, but the city would not listen. Is it easier to hear God and receive correction from Him when you are in a prosperous season or a destitute one? What about corporately? Do you think that God still holds groups of people like churches, cities, or nations collectively accountable? Are any groups you are a part of in need of collective repentance?
