Bible verse of the day — August 23, 2026

· an archived day

On August 23, 2026, the VerseMates Bible verse of the day was Jeremiah 29:11. “For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, says the LORD, thoughts of peace, and not of evil, to give you hope and a future.” Written to people who were going to spend seventy years in exile. The future promised here was real and also a long way off — which is why this verse belongs to people whose circumstances have not improved yet.
