One Year Bible: Day 290 - Jeremiah 38:1-40:6; 1 Timothy 3:1-16; Psalm 119:57-64

The difficulties faced by Jeremiah were great - “bound in chains” (Jeremiah 40:1). They were not insurmountable - “the commander ... let him go” (Jeremiah 40:5). The Psalmist says, “Though the wicked bind me with ropes, I will not forget Your law” (Psalm 119:61). Whatever difficulties we may face, we are still called to “keep hold of the deep truths of the faith with a clear conscience” (1 Timothy 3:9).
