Messages That Matter By Dr. Andrew Corbett

The story continues. Jeremiah pleaded with them not to run. But they did. They sought a place to hide. They discovered that there is One from Whom you can never hide. No matter how guilty you may be; no matter how ashamed you are; you cannot run from the One from Whom there is no hiding. Here's why it's still beautifully true today.

Before the capital of Egypt was renamed 'Cairo' it used to be called "Memphis". The people who survived the Babylonian destruction of their city had been warned not to go to Memphis (Egypt).

There is a problem which affects all of us. The consequences of this problem are perilous. Yet God has the remedy. But the problem is that the problem besetting us all causes us to reject God and His offer. God goes to extraordinary lengths to reach out to people with this remedy and frequently uses artists, story-tellers, and captivating preachers to creatively and winsomely present it.

Despite the Jews rejecting the Prophet Jeremiah's message for decades, when it eventually proved true and disaster did indeed befall them, God still offered them conditional mercy. Would they accept it?

Jerusalem had been destroyed, just as Jeremiah the Prophet had foretold. Those who remained in Jerusalem asked Jeremiah to give them the word of the Lord. He told them that the Lord was telling them to remain in Jerusalem where He would preserve and bless them. Despite their assurances to Jeremiah that they would obey the Lord, they didn't! This passage in Jeremiah has some powerful lessons for those serious about God and His Word, and how to deliver it.
