Listen to Pastor Nick read the Firestarter and Jeremiah 33:14-16.

Can you imagine the sun no longer rising, or the moon changing its faithful rotation about the earth each month? So unchanging is God’s Covenant with us. However, there is one condition—obedience. Slaves must be set free. How can anyone be free while controlling the lives of others through slavery?

There is a marked change in the atmosphere of this section of Jeremiah. Greater than the punishment of exile is God’s desire to restore the people to their land. There is a sense of “hoping against hope” that Jeremiah is holding out to you. God is faithful, unchanging as the sun and the moon.

Are you unchanging toward God in your response? Are you letting go of the need to control others, which in our day, is a brand of slavery? As you read about the Rechabites, ask yourself, “Is there something specific that the Lord is asking of me?”

Read quietly, with joy. God will do wonderful things with your life, if you will let God do it.
