SCRIPTURE: Jeremiah (NIV) 33:1 While Jeremiah was still confined in the courtyard of the guard, the word of the LORD came to him a second time: 2″This is what the LORD says, he who made the earth, the LORD who formed it and established it—the LORD is his name: 3 ‘Call to me and I will answer you and tell you great and unsearchable things you do not know.’
OBSERVATION: King Zedekiah had locked Jeremian in prison because Jeremiah was prophesying that God was going to hand Judah over to the Babylonians. The king was able to control the prophet, but He could not control the prophet’s God. No prison can keep God from speaking to His servant.
APPLICATION: If there is nothing that can hinder God from getting to me, there is nothing that can hinder Him from clearing a way for me to get out.
And I must not allow myself to get so caught up in my circumstances that I close my ears to what He has to say. Consider the promise God made to Jeremiah while Jeremiah was still imprisoned!
PRAYER: Lord, You have such good things to say to me. Even when I am trapped and feel so limited. You are never limited! And in you, my possibilities are never limited. May my ears be ever open to hearing what you are saying to me even when my circumstances seem crushing. Amen.
