3 7 Prophets Foretell Jesus Comig Jeremiah 33:14-16 BIBLe BACKGROUND for Leaders Jeremiah Preaches Hope i Times of Trouble This passage was writte early 600 years before Jesus was bor. The orther kigdom of Israel had falle to the Assyrias, who had i tur falle to the Babyloias. Jeremiah also saw the fall of the souther kigdom of Judah to the Babyloias, cocludig with the destructio of Jerusalem i 587 B.C. Despite all that was goig o aroud him, Jeremiah s message i this passage is oe of hope. Repeatig early word for word the message he had give i Jeremiah 23:5-6, Jeremiah utters here his most importat message about the comig Messiah. This Kig would be a descedat of David but would rule with more wisdom, justice, ad righteousess tha ay other kig had ever doe. This comig Messiah would ot oly rescue his people from their oppressors but also reuite the kigdoms of Israel ad Judah, which had bee divided sice the death of Solomo more tha 300 years earlier. The Jesus Coectio Your relatioship with Jesus is a amazig gift. Ad God plaed log ago to give you that gift. Thak him for this life-givig blessig! Log ago, God chose to prepare the hearts of his people with the ews that a Savior would come. As you prepare for Christmas, take some time to allow God s message of hope ad salvatio to sik i for you. Choose to believe God s promises ad allow the woder of Jesus icaratio to overwhelm you. Pray about your heart s desire to live this Christmas seaso immersed i the meaig of God s promises. You ca write your prayer here. Jesus Fulfills Prophecy, but Not as Expected After readig this passage, it s easy to uderstad why people of Jesus day expected a Messiah who would lead them i throwig off Roma rule ad restorig the uified kigdom of Israel. From our stadpoit i history, we kow that Jesus came first as the sufferig servat (see Isaiah 53), drawig people to himself through his perfect life ad his message of repetace. Oe day, however, Jesus will retur to complete his fulfillmet of Old Testamet prophecies ad rule as kig over all heave ad earth. As we look forward to our celebratio of Jesus birth, we ca also look forward to the day Jesus will retur to take those who believe i him to live with him i heave. That s God s message of hope for Christias i today s broke world! Preschool/Ages 3 & 4 Lesso 1 Witer Quarter
