Hearing God’s Word is Not the Same as Following It

Jeremiah 41-45

Devotion by Dustin Farr (South Carolina)

After Jerusalem fell to Babylon, a small remnant remained in Judah under the leadership of a man named Gedaliah, who was appointed governor by Babylon. During this time there was stability but it was short-lived due to a man named Ishmael. Ishmael was a royal descendant of the line of David and desiring power created a plot to assassinate Gedaliah and his council. He didn’t stop there but then also killed the Babylonian guards, and even murdered Judeans who were with him. His violence went further when seventy men from Shechem, Shiloh, and Samaria came to bring grain and incense to the temple. Ishmael lured them in and slaughtered them, sparing only ten who bribed him with hidden supplies. These were not acts of justice. They were fueled by pride, ambition, and a willingness to kill the innocent to secure power.

In the aftermath, fear spread through the remnant of the Judean people. Johanan and the other leaders gathered and the survivors approached Jeremiah the prophet, asking him to pray to the LORD for direction. They promised to obey whatever God revealed. For ten days, Jeremiah waited for God’s answer while the people appeared willing to hear it. In reality, they had already decided on their course…fleeing to Egypt for safety.

When God’s answer came, it was direct. Stay in the land, and He would protect them; go to Egypt, and judgment would follow. The message was a test of trust. Would they believe God could preserve them under Babylon’s rule, or would they seek security on their own terms? Their response revealed their hearts. They accused Jeremiah of lying and acting under Babylonian influence, then forced him and Baruch to go with them to Egypt.

Once in Egypt, they returned to idol worship. They knew God’s commands and yet chose to break them. But their disobedience would have consequences. They knew God’s commands and yet chose to break them. Their disobedience would not go unanswered. God made it clear that the very place they sought for safety would be the place of their destruction. The sword, famine, and plague they feared in Judah would meet them in Egypt.

In the middle of this message of judgment, God also spoke to Baruch, Jeremiah’s scribe. While others were seizing power or chasing their own plans, Baruch was called to remain faithful in the work God had given him. God told him not to pursue “great things” for himself during this time, and in return promised to preserve his life. It was a reminder that in seasons of uncertainty, real security comes from God’s hand, not from self-promotion or human strategy. This passage highlights how meaningless it is to ask the LORD for guidance, if you don’t plan on adhering to it. True obedience means submitting to His direction even when it opposes our plans. Faithfulness matters more than personal ambition, and security apart from God is an illusion.

Reflection Questions:

  1. Have you ever sought God’s direction but deep down hoped it would match what you already wanted?
  2. How does this account challenge you to submit to God’s will even when it conflicts with your plans?
  3. What would faithfulness look like for you in your current situation?

Disrespecting God

2 Kings 24-25
2 Chronicles 36

In Chronicles 36 the people of Judah continually disobey God. One of the ways they disobeyed God was by mocking Him and His message.

“But they mocked God’s messengers, despised his words and scoffed at his prophets until the wrath of the Lord was aroused against his people and there was no remedy.” 2 Chronicles 36:16.

Have you ever mocked God? Mocking is belittling God and it doesn’t just mean to ridicule Him out loud. Mocking means to outright disrespect God. Some examples would include picking and choosing what is commanded of us and ignoring what we don’t want to follow. It’s being hypocritical with our faith. It includes being complacent in consuming media that disrespects God and the faith. Now, ask yourself again, have you ever mocked God?

So, what do you do if you have mocked God like the people in 2 Chronicles 36? The first thing to do is repent and ask for forgiveness.

“If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just and will forgive us our sins and purify us from all unrighteousness.” 1 John 1:9

We have to talk highly about God with the respect he deserves. We have to nurture our spiritual growth. That means the recognition of the mockery we may have been adding to our life has to stop and it needs to be replaced by praise.

Reflection Questions

  1. How have you turned your back from God?
  2. In what ways can you express gratitude for who God is?
  3. How can you move away from mocking God and move to recognizing the beauty of God?

A Time to Uproot – THEN – A Time to Plant

Jeremiah 32-34

In today’s reading in Jeremiah 32-34, God is furious with His people and promises to punish them. It won’t be pretty for a while, but eventually God’s love and mercy makes it back on the scene. We learned in yesterday’s reading how important God’s discipline is for shaping our character and turning us back to Him. I hope whoever is reading this realizes that you are never too far gone from God’s love and mercy. Yes, He might teach you a lesson to help you learn from it, but true repentance will lead to restoration. God will not stay mad at you if you choose to turn from your sinful ways. Maybe you’re holding back because you feel so embarrassed and humiliated at your poor choices and feel completely unworthy of God’s love. Maybe you feel like the prodigal son sheepishly returning home and expecting your father’s wrath, but you’re so desperate you will work as a servant in order to survive. Maybe you’re afraid you’ll receive a cold and resentful reception like the older brother gave the prodigal son. Don’t let fear of others’ judgment of you stand in the way of restoring your relationship with your Heavenly Father. His opinion of you is the only one that truly matters.

We can take comfort in God’s character revealed in 33:26 “…For I will restore their fortunes and have compassion on them.” God will meet your repentance with compassion and restoration, but you first have to face the reality of your sin and the damage it has done to your life and your relationship with God. 

-Kristy Cisneros

Reflection Questions

  1. What are some of the consequences of sin in your life? Have you experienced a time when your own personal true repentance has led to restoration? What might that look like – both today and in the future?
  2. How does God’s justice and mercy work together?
  3. Realizing there are still consequences for sin, how might God expect us to mirror His mercy to the repentant? How can your justice and mercy work together?

Death Threats

Jeremiah 26-29

“You will be hated by everyone because of me, but the one who stands firm to the end will be saved.” (Matthew 10:22).

In chapter 26, Jeremiah experienced hate on account of obedience to God. He was obedient to telling the people God’s message and they wanted to kill him for it. In our current day, the world is trying very hard to normalize certain sins and they spew a lot of vitriol toward Christians for not supporting it and promoting it. We see in certain areas of the world where Christians are even being killed for their beliefs. 

Did Jeremiah crumble under the threat of death? He absolutely did not. In the face of the threat of death, he stood his ground and continued to be obedient to God’s call to warn the people. God wants us to not have a spirit of fear and timidity but to be bold—even in the face of danger. Thankfully, we don’t need to rely on our own limited power, because we have a far greater source of strength. 2 Timothy 1:7 says,  “For the Spirit God gave us does not make us timid, but gives us power, love and self-discipline.”

If we are practicing obedience to God’s word, we can be sure that we will receive push back from the world. We need to be resolute like Jeremiah and not conform to the wickedness of the world, but instead call it out so that we can help bring as many people as possible into God’s kingdom.

-Kristy Cisneros

Reflection Questions

  1. What might you be thinking and feeling and doing if you were in Jeremiah’s shoes? Is there anything you find particularly admirable about Jeremiah?
  2. What is the purpose behind speaking up (not omitting a word) even when it is not positively received?
  3. Have you ever faced a potentially fearful situation because of your faith? How do you think you (with help from the Spirit of God) might handle it today if you ran into persecution for believing in and speaking for God?
  4. What might you be able to do today to strengthen your faith in order to speak every word from God AND perhaps handle persecution better in the future?

Running with Their Message

Jeremiah 23-25

Jeremiah’s heart was broken over the ungodliness and wickedness he witnessed among God’s people. As noted in 23:11, the priests and prophets were particularly godless. Their wickedness was so immense that God compared them to Sodom and Gomorrah. The prophets were not speaking inspired words, but rather what came to their own minds. I can’t help but wonder if these prophets told the people simply what they wanted to hear. In other words, they were good old fashioned con artists. My mind immediately went to the concept of today’s prosperity gospel and how preachers like Joel Osteen tickle the ears of the people with assurances that God wants you to be wealthy. Or there are even pastors who justify, minimize or normalize sins that are clearly spoken against in God’s word. God issues a clear warning in Jeremiah 23:16-17 about not listening to those who are sharing their own ideas as opposed to God’s inspired word.

16 This is what the Lord Almighty says:

“Do not listen to what the prophets are prophesying to you;
    they fill you with false hopes.
They speak visions from their own minds,
    not from the mouth of the Lord.

Someone who is truly sharing the word of God will compel people to repent of their sins and turn toward God. Be wary of anyone who always tells you just what you want to hear.

22 

But if they had stood in my council,

    they would have proclaimed my words to my people

and would have turned them from their evil ways

    and from their evil deeds.

To whom are you listening? If those people are making you feel complacent with your sin, encouraging you to follow after ungodly things or not make the kingdom of God a priority, then you know that they are leading you astray and that will have dire consequences if continued. 

32 Indeed, I am against those who prophesy false dreams,” declares the Lord. 

“They tell them and lead my people astray with their reckless lies, yet I did not send or appoint them. They do not benefit these people in the least,” declares the Lord.

– Kristy Cisneros

Reflection Questions

  1. How do you discern what is a godly message and what did not come from Him?
  2. When have you seen people chasing after a message that did not come from God?
  3. To whom are you listening?
  4. How can your words better align with God’s message? What would God have you say, and to whom?

“I Feel Put Upon”

 Jeremiah 18-22 

When my son was little, we spent a lot of time watching Thomas the Tank Engine and Friends. One of Thomas’s friends was an engine named Percy. Percy was good at his job, but sometimes he just felt he was given way too much work and it was unfair. “I feel put upon!” Percy would declare at various times. While reading today’s chapters, I think Jeremiah was saying the same thing (but in Hebrew 😀). 

And really, I don’t blame him. God had him observe a potter creating and destroying vessels at his pleasure to demonstrate what God will do with His people. Then He had Jeremiah buy a clay jar and smash it in front of the leaders of Judah to demonstrate what God will do to Judah. And what does Jeremiah get for his obedience? Beaten and mocked. Not only that, but Jeremiah saw that nothing was happening to the evil people, in fact, they seemed to be doing quite well. He was frustrated and felt defeated. I think I would have, too. Any half-way mature person knows that life isn’t fair, but sometimes it’s hard not to be frustrated when you always seem to be on the unfair end of things and that’s where Jeremiah is here. But despite his anger and frustration, he still acknowledges that no matter what, Jeremiah would praise Him and continue to prophesy in His name. Which is probably a good thing because after years of warnings, God begins moving His hand against Judah. 

In chapter 21, we see that the warning of destruction of kings was no longer a vague, general mourning. People are being named. King Zedekiah was told he would be captured by the Babylonians, King Josiah’s eldest had been exiled, and his next son, Jehoiakim’s death was predicted to be un- mourned and dishonorable. Then it’s Jeremiah’s job to try to convince the people to surrender to Babylon so they will go “easy” on them and not kill them. No wonder this guy wasn’t very popular. I hadn’t really given it much thought before but in verse 20:18, Jeremiah mentions his friends. They certainly aren’t good friends as they are plotting to kill him. But unlike Jonah who was commanded to go and preach to a far off nation, Jeremiah was preaching to the people he grew up with and lived around. The people he traded goods with, the people he talked to while on the way to the temple, people who had been a part of his everyday life. Between being scorned for delivering these messages and knowing what was in store for his community, no wonder Jeremiah was down and depressed. He WAS put upon. 

We’ll have to keep reading to find out what happens to Judah and Jeremiah. But in the meantime, think about the times you’ve felt “put upon” by the Lord. What happened? Did He stay with you? Like Jeremiah, did you praise Him anyway? 

Prayer: 

Dear Lord, 

There are times in life when You have given us a burden and we feel “put upon”. Help us to have an attitude of peace and contentment at these times because You have chosen us to carry that burden. Please give us the strength to do it with pleasure. 

In Christ’s Name, 

Amen 

-Maria Knowlton

  2. Have you ever delivered warnings from God to someone you know? What was the hardest part? What did this person think of you? What do you think God thought of you? What happens when no one warns?
  3. Would you rather…speak for man or for God?

“Per My Last Email”

Jeremiah 14-17

“Per my last email.” I’ve never actually used those words in text or speech, because everyone knows what that means, “ I ALREADY TOLD YOU THIS INFORMATION!!!” It’s a little passive-aggressive, so I’ve only ever thought it. I’ve often wondered throughout scripture, if God has thought similarly. In Jeremiah 14, Judah begins to experience a serious drought. The people begin crying as they start to notice God is not hearing their prayers. WHY are You treating us like a stranger ( 13:8)? WHY are You acting like You can’t do anything for us (13:8)? WHY have You afflicted us so that we cannot heal (13:19) I can only imagine God was thinking, “per my last PROPHET, I ALREADY TOLD YOU WHY!!!!” By this time, at least according to my study Bible’s timeline, Jeremiah had probably been warning the people of Judah for well over 15 years. The people could not claim ignorance of God’s coming judgment and this drought was just the beginning. It does dawn on some of the people that , oh yeah, maybe this has something to do with our complete disregard for Your laws and decrees. Or maybe, it wasn’t even that many people realizing their sins in this passage…maybe it was just Jeremiah…which means it really wasn’t much of an apology at all. 

In chapter 15, God gets a little graphic with His description of Judah’s destruction, using the sword, dogs, birds, and beast (15:3). And that sets the tone for the first half of the chapter. In the second half, Jeremiah and God have a heart to heart chat. I really feel for Jeremiah. It is really hard when you’ve tried so hard to be good, only to have people treat you bad. In this case, make plans to murder you (thankfully, although I can relate with the former, I can’t with the latter)! Jeremiah also expresses disappointment in feeling God has abandoned him. But God assures him He has not, and He will reward him. But not before chapter 16. 

God then asks Jeremiah to go into a type of self exile. He was forbidden from marrying, having kids, or participating in funeral traditions. As God used Hosea as a living object lesson, He uses Jeremiah to live out an example of what God’s coming punishment would be like. Families would be destroyed and so many would die there would be no time for mourning. 

All of this, including chapter 17 is a bleak description of Judah’s folly and God’s wrath. But then oddly, in the middle of the listed curses, is a blessing (17:7-8). If the people would trust in the Lord, they would be planted firmly and withstand the droughts and coming destruction. 

Today’s reading ends with a reminder of God’s command to keep the Sabbath holy. Apparently, the people had given up on this command and were treating the Sabbath just like every other day. ( We could have a very long discussion about what that means for us now… but that’s for another day). 

Unfortunately, like a previous email, the people of Judah disregard all of the Lord’s instructions and decrees brought to them by Jeremiah. 

Just like the people of Judah, we too have been warned, comforted, educated, and instructed by the Holy Word of God. When it comes to the final judgement, we can’t claim ignorance. WE GOT THE EMAIL! Let us put into the practice all we have read and heard until the day of Christ’s return! 

Prayer: 

Dear Father, 

You have given us all we need to come to an understanding of You, Your love, and Your decrees. Please open our hearts to greater learning and understanding so that You know we take Your word seriously. 

Im Christ’s name we pray, 

Amen

Sorting Through the Muck

Jeremiah 10-13

 In nursing school, we were taught to remind patients not to google their symptoms because of all the “muck” there is out there. And given the right combination of benign systems, you can diagnose yourself with the black plague pretty quickly. But I can tell you right now not a single one of my patients under the age of 100 didn’t google their symptoms as soon as they surfaced. In conversations with my patients, I quickly learned that an admonishment against googling wasn’t going to work. I needed to help my patients navigate through all the muck of the internet to find information that is actually helpful (sites that are sponsored by hospital systems such as Mayo Clinic or Cleveland Clinic, or associations such as the American Heart Association or Cystic Fibrosis Foundation are generally reliable). 

Since you’ve probably visited the internet before, you probably already know much muck exists in the writings of any topic you look up. Even in looking up commentary on the book of Jeremiah, I came across writings that were complete perversions of the scriptures. The writers added “facts” to twist scripture to their agendas. I wonder if they even noticed the irony that their writings on Jeremiah are EXACTLY the kind of things God was warning Judah about. 

We saw in chapter 7 and now in 10 that the people of Judah added their idol worship to their worship of the ONE TRUE GOD. And clearly, people are still doing it today. 

I learned, through what seems to be a much more godly commentary site, that this is called syncretism. Syncretism is “the amalgamation or attempted amalgamation of different religions, cultures, or schools of thought.” (Internet dictionary). The writer of the commentary notes, “ YHWH hates syncretism. He has given us clear instruction on how we are to live, behave, and worship Him. He does not take lightly when we decide to trust more in our wisdom and modify His instructions as we see fit.” 

In chapter 12, we really start to feel bad for Jeremiah. He’s asking God why the evil are getting away with everything and seem to prosper and God’s response was that it was going to get a lot worse! In light of our present circumstances and prophecy, we may feel the same way. 

Then in chapter 13, God uses an object lesson to show what will happen to Judah if they do not turn to Him. The NASB calls it a linen belt and the Message calls it shorts. Either way, Jeremiah was commanded to wear it right away. As this belt or shorts was worn close to the body, it represented how closely the Lord holds Judah to Himself. God then has Jeremiah take them off and stick them between some rocks and retrieve them a few days later. Not surprisingly, they were completely tattered and torn (though being a guy, Jeremiah probably wore them anyway 😀). Just like time, weather, and lack of care ruined the shorts, God promised to ruin Judah if they continued to ignore His commands. In verses 15-16, God tells the people to hear, pay attention, do not be arrogant and give God the glory and He would not destroy them. Stay tuned to find out if they heed this warning…or not. 

Jeremiah was not called “The Weeping Prophet” for nothing. But I think the more tragic thing is that society hasn’t changed much. There are those who are doing the EXACT same things for which God severely punished the practitioners. Jeremiah would be appalled. He would be weeping that there are so many sinking in so much muck. 

Praise God that we don’t need to wade through the muck of untruths that surround us. No matter the person or their credentials, we must always hold up their teachings to the only source for truth, the Holy Bible, because God and His truth are not hiding from us nor are far from us! (Acts 17:24-28) 

Prayer: 

Dear Lord, 

Please let me be aware if there are any thoughts, beliefs, or behaviors that contradict your decrees. Please help me to keep my offering of worship pure and true. 

In Jesus’ Name, 

Amen 

-Maria Knowlton

Reflection Questions

  1. What ailments does the world have today? What symptoms do they have? What is the prognosis? Is there any cure available? How many will ignore the warnings of the wise doctor (and nurse)?
  2. What muck have you seen others and/or yourself following or mixing with Bible truth? Continue praying for God to show you truth – and keep seeking it in God’s precious Word.
  3. What are your thoughts and feelings reading through all of God’s warnings to Judah through the prophet Jeremiah? Who needs to hear these warnings today? Are there words God wants you to speak? Ask him.

Burnt Bedbugs

Jeremiah 4-6

Recently, I was involved in a discussion about parasites. (Old people, right?) One person was telling how their house became infested with bed bugs after buying a used car. Exterminators had to come and use equipment that heated up the ENTIRE house to 135 degrees fahrenheit! All plastics, foods, and other meltable items had to be removed from the home and it cost thousands of dollars. But it was the only way to completely get rid of every one of those little buggers! This story popped into my head while spending time in today’s reading. 

Chapter 4 starts out almost hopeful. Jeremiah tells the people of Judah that if they just turn to God, God will forgive them and they will live free. That hopefulness lasts for about 4 verses. Then, Jeremiah warns of destruction from the north (Babylon). The rest of our reading is pretty dire. In chapter 5, Jeremiah lists their sins, the reasons the Lord is so displeased with them. His chosen people were being cruel to each other, getting rich through exploitation of the poor, and rebellious towards His decrees. Even the priest and prophets were proven to be cheats and liars and no one seems to notice or care (5:31). 

So God promises destruction, similar to what the exterminators have to do to get rid of bedbugs. In 4:11, Jeremiah speaks of a scorching wind that will come and bring ruin to the land, followed by the army from a distant land. While God promises not to destroy it completely, it will be enough that the earth will mourn its loss (4:28). 

Jeremiah ends today’s reading by comparing Judah with metal. As a blacksmith tests metal to determine its strength, God has tested the people but finds they are like tin foil (6:28-30). 

Or maybe they are like all the plastic that had to be removed before my friend’s house had to be heated up to the extreme to destroy the bugs. They would not be able to survive God’s judgment without his mercy. We will read more about that later. 

As we consider these passages today, let’s reflect on the fact that we would be in the same position as the people of Judah without the sacrificial grace we have received through Jesus Christ. Like a plastic popcorn bowl, Jesus has taken us out of the house before the coming heat.. In this case, the second death (Revelation 20:14-15). 

Prayer: 

Dear Lord, 

While the judgement of Your people may be hard to hear, we must so that we can learn from their sins and so that we can also more greatly appreciate the importance of the grace we have received through the blood of Jesus Christ. Let us be aware of the ways the world is trying to turn us to rebellion. Thank you for your promises of peace in this life and everlasting time with You in the next. 

In your Son’s name, Amen 

-Maria Knowlton

Ambivalent

 Jeremiah 1-3 

So I talked to this young, expecting mother about the importance of safe sleep for a newborn. No pillows, blankets, toys. I arrive at her home, as a home visiting nurse, to see the baby shortly after birth. And she is asleep, surrounded by pillows, blankets, and toys. I talked to another mother about cutting back on smoking by using nicotine patches. On my next visit, I ask if she was able to get a prescription for the patches. Her eyes drop and she says a shy, “No…” I try not to look judgmental or disappointed. We have further discussions but inside, I am a bit frustrated and when I have a full day of those kinds of interactions, I really start to question my choice of vocations. And I also feel like I might be getting a taste of what Jeremiah went through and understand how he got his nick-name, “The Weeping Prophet.” 

In his self-titled book, Jeremiah is introduced as the young son of a priest, making him a Levite. Most Biblical scholars agree he was probably a cup bearer and probably around 17 to 20 years old. Reminiscent of Moses, God calls Jeremiah to him and gives him an important job. While Moses’s excuse was that he was not a good public speaker, Jeremiah tells God, “But I’m just a boy.” (1:6) I wonder if God rolled His eyes. : ) 

But God goes on to tell him that he is to be a prophet, to warn Judah that destruction is coming. God gives him the words and in the first 3 chapters of the book, Jeremiah is pretty harsh. Like in Hosea, and throughout the Old Testament, he compares Judah, and Israel as a whole, to cheating spouses. But unlike Jonah and the prophet Zephaniah, Jeremiah is largely ignored. He warns, he pleads, and the people continue to do their own thing. They know God exists but ignore His direction and commands. And Jeremiah knows what the coming consequences are. 

They were ambivalent. I mentioned that word in yesterday’s devotion. It is a good word for describing those sitting on a proverbial ‘fence.’ They know the consequence of their behavior, but the behavior is easier, more fun. There are a lot of, “ Yeah, but…” in the conversations. Yeah, I know I should stop smoking, but it’s so hard. Yeah I know God is going to destroy our nation, but is my little idol really going to make a difference? It can be so frustrating for those whose job it is to dole out the warnings. I’ve only been a nurse, giving medical and safety advice for about 7 years. Jeremiah was a prophet for over 40 years. I can only imagine! And he wasn’t allowed to quit! 

As we read these passages that are hard to read or hear, let us think about the areas in our own lives where we are ambivalent about our obedience to the Lord. 

Prayer: 

Dear Lord, help us to listen to your Word and those in our lives who give us Godly wisdom. Help us embrace what is good and what is good for us in Your eyes and reject the bad. Please let us let go of excuses. 

In Christ’s Name, 

Amen 

-Maria Knowlton
