Text: Jeremiah 40-44
If we ask God for direction, He will tell us what choices to make. His ways lead to life. Today, we're looking at Jeremiah and the remnant the Assyrians left in Israel.
The people came to Jeremiah and asked him to inquire of the Lord regarding what to do next. They promise to do whatever God says even if they don't like it.
After 10 days, the Lord gives Jeremiah the answer, and he shares it with them. Before they have a chance to respond, Jeremiah speaks to their heart condition (Vs. 19-22). "For you were hypocrites in your hearts when you sent me to the Lord..."
The proud men respond to the message and accuse Jeremiah of speaking falsely. Though we say we want to hear from God, we reject it when it comes. Rejection usually comes by way of questioning the source. This happens due to our own decisions.
Only the strong obey the Word of the Lord. So how do we become more receptive to God's direction?
