Jeremiah 6 · Grade 3

Watchmen and a Trumpet

Name Date

Read the Story

God warned Jerusalem that trouble was coming from the north. He told his people to stand in the ways and look. They should ask for the old paths, where the good way is. If they walked in it, they would find rest for their souls.

But the people said they would not walk in it. God set watchmen over them to blow the trumpet as a warning. The people said they would not listen.

Some leaders told the people everything was fine. They said Peace, peace, when there was no peace. They were not even ashamed. God wanted his people to hear the truth and turn back.

Memory Verse
