Good Morning “One”.  Today we are in Jeremiah 33.  Israel and Judah had both lost their minds, forgotten their God and their covenant with them.  God didn’t!  He is clear in this chapter through Jeremiah.  After Israel and Judah are broken down and humbled, they will return to Him and He will restore them.  Their sins will be wiped out through The Blood of “The Lord our Righteous Savior” (Jeremiah...  Read More

Good Morning “Make Him Known-ers.”  Today we are in Jeremiah 32.  Jeremiah was given The Word of The Lord for those God led him to.   He had a choice to make.  Be obedient, or not.  He obediently gave Judah and her then King Zedekiah - The Word of The Lord.  Zedekiah didn’t appreciate being told the Truth.  Due to Judahs rejection of God and His Word, Zedekiah’s kingdom was going to be thwarted - ...  Read More

Good Morning “Reconciled”.  Stay we are in Jeremiah 31.  The end is near!  Exciting stuff in this chapter!  Northern Israel (at times called Ephraim because of where their idolatry began) and Judah will collectively be reunited and reconciled with God through Jesus.  I forget, how did Israel become divided?  Let’s do some review.After David, Solomon was anointed King.  When Solomon was old, his ma...  Read More

Good Morning “Gods People”.  Today we are in Jeremiah 30.“‘So you will be my people, and I will be your God.’ ”‭‭Jeremiah‬ ‭30‬:‭22‬ ‭NIV‬‬As you read this chapter don’t get confused - Israel is referred to here as Jacob, and Jesus as David.  All Israel descended from the line of Jacob and Jesus from the line of David.  It’s kinda like our last names… our descended names if you want to call it tha...  Read More

Good Morning “Those God Has Prosperous Plans For”. Today we are Jeremiah 29.  “For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the Lord, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.” Jeremiah‬ ‭29‬:‭11‬ ‭NIV‬‬Next to John 3:16, Jeremiah 29:11 is probably one of the most quoted, and probably miss-quoted verses of all time.  We love it!  Gods got a plan for us!  It’...  Read More

Good Morning “Approved Workmen”.  Today we are in Jeremiah 28.Yesterday we saw that God purposed to give Judah an opportunity to learn that living / serving under the “yoke” of an evil king wasn’t the way to go.  We cannot serve two masters.  I mentioned that passages such as these give context to Jesus’ Words in Matt 11.  His Words would have hit home to the rebellious, unrepentant people he was ...  Read More

Good Morning “Easy Yoke Carriers.”  Today we are in Jeremiah 27.In chapter 24 we saw clearly that God still had a plan for those He took into Babylonian Exile.  Their 70 years were meant to change their hearts, bring them to their knees, bring them back to God!  He was more concerned when their eternity than their present comfort.  In today’s chapter we get an inside look at what that looked like ...  Read More

Good Morning “In At ALL Cost”.  Today we are in Jeremiah 26.  Jeremiah was ALL in!  He was determined to speak Gods Truth even if it meant his life.  “But as soon as Jeremiah finished telling all the people everything the Lord had commanded him to say, the priests, the prophets and all the people seized him and said, “You must die!” Jeremiah‬ ‭26‬:‭8‬ ‭NIV‬‬They didn’t like hearing their “practice...  Read More

Good Morning “Guilty”.  Today we are in Jeremiah 25.Everyone is in the same boat - guilty.  God through Jeremiah makes that clear in this chapter.  Judah will face 70 years of judgment for disregarding The Word of The Lord and turning a deaf ear to His prophets.  Even Jeremiah has plead with them for 23 years to no avail.  It doesn’t end there though… once the 70 years is complete, Babylon, despit...  Read More

Good Morning “Soft Hearts”.  Today we are in Jeremiah 24.  2 baskets of figs?  One good, one rotten.  What’s the point?  Figs and the fig tree in Scripture become imagery for us to compare the degree of Israel’s Spiritual obedience.  Obedience results in fruit, no obedience no fruit.  Consider Jesus and the story of the barren fig tree in Mark 11:12-27.  “This is what the Lord, the God of Israel, ...  Read More

Good Morning “Discerners”.  Today we are in Jeremiah 23.“and many false prophets will appear and deceive many people.”‭‭Matthew‬ ‭24‬:‭11‬ ‭NIV‬‬What do you think of when you think of prophets?  Or prophecy?  Future telling?  Ummm… kind of, once at least.  Before we had the complete Word of God, He spoke through the prophets, giving them His Word for the people.  “In the past God spoke to our ance...  Read More

Good Morning “Never Forsakers.”  Today we are in Jeremiah 22.  “… Why has the Lord done such a thing to this great city?’ And the answer will be: ‘Because they have forsaken the covenant of the Lord their God and have worshiped and served other gods.’ ””‭‭Jeremiah‬ ‭22‬:‭8‬-‭9‬ ‭NIV‬‬Judah in the process of forsaking their covenant with The Lord, rejected His Word.  In fact rejecting His Word is p...  Read More
