Scripture Union Daily Guide 11th April 2026 – Outline
Jeremiah’s counsel of surrender branded him as a traitor in the eyes of many (Jeremiah 38:1-4). Had Jeremiah not had a divine commission, such accusation would be justified; but having one means he was just a compassionate interpreter of God’s will for the nation. God’s word is not meant to placate people and make them comfortable in their sin. It should pierce their hearts and turn them from their wickedness to true repentance. Unfortunately, many people today cannot stand the truth of God’s word. Many of today’s messages are shallow and do not move the hearers to repent and grow in their walk with God.
The result is that we have “baby Christians” who hardly know about a personal relationship of walking and talking with their Lord daily. Observe Zedekiah’s weakness and inconsistency. He was afraid of his princes. He hides his dislike of their arrogant power, which prevented him from shielding Jeremiah as he should have done (Jeremiah 38:5-6). Such a leader is a burden, especially in the time of crisis. Notice the person God used to bring Jeremiah out of the cistern, an Ethiopian Eunuch (Jeremiah 38:7-10). God can use the most unlikely person as his instrument of goodness to His people (1 Corinthians 1:27-29).
Food for Thought
The truth can be bitter sometimes, but right response to it brings freedom.
