At a time when Babylon was laying siege on Jerusalem, God called Jeremiah to purchase land in the city. Seemingly without hesitation, Jeremiah trusted God’s word. He bought the field, “signed the deed, sealed it, got witnesses,” and paid his money. He called his disciple to put the deed in an earthenware vessel and keep it safe for what would be many years (Jeremiah 32:9-15).

Call to me and I will answer you, and will tell you great and hidden things that you have not known.

Jeremiah 33:3

Jeremiah was preaching to the deaf ears of Israel and Judah’s kings. They didn’t listen and imprisoned him for speaking truth. But even through that, Jeremiah spoke of the restoration of the nation after their 70 years of captivity. He told of God’s great might…that nothing is too hard for Him (Jeremiah 32:17).

If there ever was a promise that could change your life, it’s today’s verse. The promise was to Jeremiah, but you must know that in the deepest times of sorrow or need, you can call on the One who can handle anything. Believing in Him will open the doors of understanding for you in His Word. Do not hesitate. Stay in Scripture. Then intercede for this nation’s leaders and people…that all deaf ears will hear and many will return to the Lord.
