The Call of Jeremiah

Gods Not Dead! Please join us sharing God’s Word daily.  We will spend about fifteen minutes a day praying and reading every word in God’s Word in approximately three years.

14 I press on toward the goal for the prize of the upward call of God in Christ Jesus.” Philippians 3:14


Jeremiah Overview; “Jeremiah was a priest, a native of Anathoth, in the tribe of Benjamin. He was called to the prophetic office when very young, about seventy years after the death of Isaiah, and exercised it for about forty years with great faithfulness, till the sins of the Jewish nation came to their full measure and destruction followed. The prophecies of Jeremiah do not stand as they were delivered... The general subject of his prophecies is the idolatry and other sins of the Jews; the judgments by which they were threatened, with references to their future restoration and deliverance, and promises of the Messiah. They are remarkable for plain and faithful reproofs, affectionate expostulations, and awful warnings.” -  Matthew Henry Concise
Jeremiah Chapter 1, “Jeremiah's call to the prophetic office. (1-10) A vision of an almond-tree and of a seething-pot, Divine protection is promised. (11-19)”  -  Matthew Henry Concise



Dear Saints,

Today we prayerfully continue our Feast reading the book of Jeremiah Chapter 1.  God calls Jeremiah to be a prophet (see Jeremiah 1:1-10) to the Jews as wells as the neighboring nations. God shows Jeremiah the destruction of Judah and Jerusalem for they sinned by (see Jeremiah 1:11-19) denying God’s glory.  God avows His judgment, for they forsook the Lord.18 And I, behold, I make you this day a fortified city, an iron pillar, and bronze walls, against the whole land, against the kings of Judah, its officials, its priests, and the people of the land. 19 They will fight against you, but they shall not prevail against you, for I am with you, declares the Lord, to deliver you.”“   Jeremiah 1:18-19  English Standard Versions (ESV).    God has plans for everyone who repents and (see 1 John 1:9) asks forgiveness in the name of Jesus.  “16 Rejoice always, 17 pray without ceasing, 18 give thanks in all circumstances; for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you.   1 Thessalonians 5:16-18 ESV. No matter how God uses you or what Jesus provides (see Philippians 4:11-13); stay faithful because the Lord strengthens you.
