Jeremiah 29:4-7 Devotionals, Articles & Bible Study

          4This is what the LORD of Hosts, the God of Israel, says to all the exiles who were carried away from Jerusalem to Babylon:
          5“Build houses and settle down. Plant gardens and eat their produce.
          6Take wives and have sons and daughters. Take wives for your sons and give your daughters in marriage, so that they too may have sons and daughters. Multiply there; do not decrease.
          7Seek the prosperity of the city to which I have sent you as exiles. Pray to the LORD on its behalf, for if it prospers, you too will prosper.”

— Jeremiah 29:4-7
