The Word of God, spoken by Jeremiah, still needs to be heard today –
“O land, land, land! Listen to the Word of the Lord!” (Jeremiah 22:29).
God has much to say to this land and every land. Are we listening to His
Word? or Have we closed our ears? Jeremiah speaks of our Saviour, Jesus
Christ – “The days are coming, declares the Lord, when I will grow a
righteous Branch for David” (Jeremiah 23:5). Like Jeremiah, we must
direct attention to the Saviour. Speaking God’s Word, Jeremiah said, “I
am a God who is near. I am also a God who is far away” (Jeremiah
23:23). We must maintain these two emphases in our preaching. God is
greater than we can imagine, yet He has come near to us in Christ.
