As I read this morning chapter 1 in Jeremiah…this is what I learned about him.

Jerm 1:4-5

4-Now the word of the Lord came to me saying, 5- “Before I formed you in the womb I knew you, and before you were born I consecrated you; I appointed you a prophet to the nations.”

*He was a prophet for a worldwide ministry.

*Jeremiah was called by God specifically.  His ministry was 2 fold-destructive and constructive.  God’s word is accompanied with power so that Jeremiah would accomplish these objectives.

*God never makes a mistake in choosing his servants.  He empowers all he calls and provides the encouragement and help they need.

*With God Jeremiah is invincible.

*The secret of spiritual victory in Jeremiah’s life is that Jeremiah is assured success on the condition of his faith in God.

The last thing I learned today is Jeremiah knew his calling and his calling was specific.  Although he faced many challenges and opposition he was a butt kicker!  He was called to speak the truth of the Lord and many people turned against him. Although I’m sure it was hard at times but he knew that God was with him and he knew his calling and he went out and did it.

What is your calling?  As we are all on this path to hear and see God move~ I challenge you to press in and listen to that still small voice inside that is speaking to each of our hearts and ask God to show you what your calling is and then go and kick booty!!!
