S – If you remain, then return to Gedaliah the son of Ahikam, son of Shaphan, whom the king of Babylon appointed governor of the cities of Judah, and dwell with him among the people. Or go wherever you think it right to go.” So the captain of the guard gave him an allowance of food and a present, and let him go. ⁶ Then Jeremiah went to Gedaliah the son of Ahikam, at Mizpah, and lived with him among the people who were left in the land. 

Jeremiah 40:5–6 ESV

O – Jeremiah finds favor with the captain of the guard who tells him he is free to go where he pleases.  If he went to the governor’s city, there would be provision and protection there.  Jeremiah stayed with the governor and in the cities of Judah.

A – In the most challenging circumstances, God is still Jehovah Jireh, our provider.  It is part of his character to take care of and provide for those he has a relationship.  God will give us favor even when it doesn’t make sense.

R – Heavenly Father, you are Jehovah Jireh.  Thank you for providing for us daily.  Many things we take for granted are because you give us favor.  We are grateful that you watch over us and ensure we are taken care of today.
