Study in Jeremiah
Jeremiah 50:1-10, God’s Judgment on Babylon and Hope for Israel
Jeremiah 50:1–10 opens with a bold prophecy against Babylon, the empire that once seemed unstoppable. God declares that her idols will be exposed, her strongholds shaken, and her pride humbled. At the same time, these verses shine with hope—Israel and Judah will seek the Lord again, and God promises deliverance for His people. This passage reminds us that no nation, however powerful, can stand against God’s judgment. For believers today, Jeremiah 50:1–10 is both a warning against trusting in worldly…

Jeremiah 49:7-22, Judgment on Edom’s Pride
Concerning Edom, thus saith the Lord of hosts; Is wisdom no more in Teman? is counsel perished from the prudent? is their wisdom vanished? 8 Flee ye, turn back, dwell deep, O inhabitants of Dedan; for I will bring the calamity of Esau upon him, the time that I will visit him. 9 If grapegatherers come to thee, would they not leave some gleaning grapes? if thieves by night, they will destroy till they have enough. 10 But I have…

Jeremiah 48, Pride – The sin that always goes before the fall.
Jeremiah had brought prophecies against the southern kingdom of Judah for their rebellion against God. And if you remember, the Lord had told Jeremiah when he called him, I’m going to place words upon your lips to share, but people won’t listen. And what a calling to tell the Lord to tell you that. And that’s exactly what the nation of Judah did. They didn’t listen. But God wanted them to know he’s not done with them yet. And he…

And as I mentioned, when we begin to study Jeremiah, the book of Jeremiah, the chapters don’t necessarily go sequentially. There will be chapter that will skip forward and others that will go back. This is one that looks back, and it looks…
Jeremiah 43
I don’t know if you’ve ever had people come and they want your advice, and they know that you’re a believer, and they know that you trust in God, and they ask you to pray for them, and pray that God would give you insight into what they should do in a certain situation. And God, in his word, reveals to you what their problem is, and you share the answer with them. And then they proceed to go, no,…

And Josiah…

This afternoon we want to continue our study in the book of Jeremiah. And so if you have your Bibles and will turn with me to Jeremiah. And we are looking at chapters 37 and 38 as Jeremiah has been in prison. And you know, sometimes we just don’t understand why God allows certain things to happen. And I’m sure Jeremiah was wondering about this as well. Jeremiah had been doing everything God had told him to do. And yet…
