Hey everyone, this is Mary DeMuth and this is Pray Every Day where I have the joy and privilege

of praying you through the Bible verse by verse.

Grateful to have you here and so proud of you for listening in the month of December when things are very, very hectic and busy.

So thank you for valuing the Word of God.

Thank you for valuing prayer.

I appreciate it.

Saying valuing doesn't sound right to me, but you know how

you say a word and you're not quite sure. Anyway, grateful to have you here today on this day. I've

already said what day it is. And today I'm going to read Jeremiah chapter 36 versus 1 through 16 in the

world English Bible. And this is what it says. In the fourth year of Joachim,

the son of Josiah, king of Judah, this word came to Jeremiah from Yahweh, saying,

take a scroll of a book and write in it all the words that I have spoken to you against Israel,

against Judah, and against all the nations from the day I spoke to you, from

the days of Josiah, even to this day. It may be that the house of Judah will hear all the

evil which I intend to do to them, that they may each return from his evil way, that I may

forgive their iniquity and their sin. Then Jeremiah called Baruch, the son of Narayah, and Baruch wrote from the mouth of Jeremiah all Yahweh's words, which he had spoken to him, on a scroll of a book.

Jeremiah commanded Baruch, saying, I am restricted, I can't go into Yahweh's house.

Therefore, you go and read from them from the scroll, which you have

written from my mouth, Yahweh's words in the ears of the people of Yahweh's house on the fast day.

Also, you shall read them in the ears of all of Judah who come out of their cities.

It may be that they will present their supplication before Yahweh and will each return

from his evil way, for Yahweh has pronounced great anger and wrath against this people.
