Prophets Faithfull to God's CovenantCourageous Prophets of Change Live in the light of God (Isaiah 2:5) Ezekiel: Street Preacher To The ExilesJeremiah 31:27-30 New International Version27 “The days are coming,” declares the Lord, “when I will plant the kingdoms of Israel and Judah with the offspring of people and animals. 28 Just as I watched over them to uproot and tear down, and to overthrow, destroy and bring disaster, so I will watch over them to build and to plant,” declares the Lord. 29 “In those days people will no longer say, ‘The parents have eaten sour grapes, and the children’s teeth are set on edge.’ 30 Instead, everyone will die for their own sin; whoever eats sour grapes—their own teeth will be set on edge. For ReflectionHaving been caught doing something that he ought not to have done, a child might say, "He made me do it. It wasn't my fault." As it turns out, denying responsibility is also an adult response. We are all responsible for our own behavior. No excuses! PrayPray and know that accepting responsibility for deviating from the divine practice of ethical, moral, and decent behavior is your first step toward reconciliation with others and God. Pray, confessing your transgressions, and change your practices, and God will regenerate you.
