Synopsis: In this passage, God exposed the worthlessness of idols and His supremacy over all creatures, people and the world He created. Rather than being disheartened by signs in heaven, God's people were called to fear God and look to Him who would save them.

Through the prophet Jeremiah, God exposed the spiritual sickness of His people and would make them take their bitter medicine. Birds know the season for migration and where to fly, yet God's own people did not repent of sin or return to Him in time of need. Are you among those willing to heed God's voice and walk in His ways?

Synopsis: God directed Jeremiah to stand at the gate of the temple and declare to God's people their need to thoroughly amend their ways and doings, a timeless and relevant message for all who profess to know and worship God. By looking back to God's previous judgments, those who refused to listen, be corrected or incorporate God's word into their lives were looking at their future. Are we willing to stop, seek God and heed His word?

Israel resembled a person suffering from a spiritually fatal condition due to sin, and God plainly told His people their prognosis of destruction from the north. Rather than standing, seeing and asking for the good old paths to walk in, they were determined to go their own way. Are you someone who delights in God's word or see it as a reproach?

God sent Jeremiah to Jerusalem to see if he could find one man who did justly and sought the truth, but among the rich and poor there was not one found. God would send Babylon from the north to prune foreign branches from the vine of Israel that were not his, yet the inhabitants of Jerusalem would not repent of sin, return and fear God. All God's people ought to examine themselves and ensure our lives increasingly resemble our Saviour Jesus.

Through the prophet Jeremiah, God clearly outlined His charges to His backsliding people and the way back to Him. He called them to put away their abominations and return to Him, as unrelenting destruction was coming from the north on account of their sin. Would they continue to believe lying prophets or have a change in heart to respond to God's word by faith in Him and evict sinful thoughts that lodged in their minds?

Synopsis: Through the prophet Jeremiah, God addressed His people who had forsaken Him for idols. Compared to the northern kingdom God, Judah was worse because they returned to Him in pretence, remaining fickle and faithless. There was (and is!) healing and restoration for God's backsliding children who repent of sin and return to Jesus our LORD in truth.

To people who forsook the LORD and justified themselves, God remembered them and how in early days they once used to seek Him. Through the prophet, God brought charges against His people because they worshipped idols and forgot Him. The Bible teaches judgment begins at the house of God, and His people do well to heed His voice, repent of sin and turn to Him again.

Synopsis: Before Jeremiah was conceived or born, God knew and ordained him to be a prophet to the nations. Over the course of ministry that spanned decades, God's grace was shown by speaking to God's own people who rejected His counsel and rebuke. Jeremiah was enabled to do what some would see as a thankless and pointless task because God was with Him and is faithful to fulfill His awesome purposes.
