Your Word Was the Joy of My Heart (Jeremiah 15:16)

from Verse by Verse · host Life, Hope & Truth

David Johnson discusses Jeremiah 15:16—“Your words were found, and I ate them, and Your word was to me the joy and rejoicing of my heart; for I am called by Your name, O LORD God of hosts.”NOTE: While it’s possible that the term “Christian” was originally intended by non-believers to be demeaning, it’s difficult to say with certainty. The Greek word Χριστιανοί (Christianoi, or “Christ’s people”) may simply have been a way to identify those who believed in the divinity of Jesus Christ. At any rate, it was eventually adopted by Christians to identify themselves.🔗 This episode is a companion to the following Daily Bible Verse post: https://lifehopeandtruth.com/bible/blog/your-word-was-the-joy-of-my-heart/🔗 Check out our Learning Center for all kinds of helpful resources—we’ve got video series, booklets, study guides, infographics and more: https://lifehopeandtruth.com/learning-center/📆 Verse by Verse releases every Monday, Wednesday and Friday.
