"Remember, God is promising these blessings to a repentant people. That must never be left out. His promises are grace, our response is faith, we are to call upon Him (Jeremiah 33:3) and take from Him what He offers. James say, 'Ye have not because ye ask not.' Is that why you are unblessed?" (Rev …

Alas, sword of the Lord, how long till you rest? Return to your sheath; cease and be still.’ But how can it rest when the Lord has commanded it, when he has ordered it to attack Ashkelon and the coast? (Jeremiah 47:6-7). It is all very well to complain about desolation and judgment in the …
"This chapter reads like a whirlwind! And the Lord is in the whirlwind. What has angered God at Moab? See verse 26 - “Make her drunk, for she has defied the Lord. Let Moab wallow in her vomit; let her be an object of ridicule." - this is the sin of sins. Judgment inevitably …
"This return to obedience (Jeremiah 34:9) came, alas, too late, and anyhow, it fell through very quickly. It was simply a bribe to God, to induce Him to save them from danger, and when they found it did not work, they lost enthusiasm for God's commands. People still try to fool God that way today, …
"Amidst his ministry to the nations, this spiritual giant has time for a penetrating word for his scribe. Often the larger affairs of national prophecy can conceal petty ambitions in lesser men. Baruch wanted to be something - and instantly the discerning prophet pierced his heart with these searching and challenging words, "Should you then …

"The wilderness (Jeremiah 31:2) is God's 'qualifying' class for His children! We have so often to learn the hard way! What is your 'wilderness'? Sorrow, loneliness, poverty of spirit? Have you found grace there? It is at hand. Lord, open mine eyes that I may see!" (Rev James Philip, Notes on Jeremiah 31:1-3, Gardesnstown Church, …
"Note the twofold blessing of this new covenant: forgiveness and a new heart to keep His commandments. O the wonder of it! His law in our inward parts - what can this mean but that we are to live it out day by day. This is our inheritance. Let us claim it and dare to …
"Here is a favourite trick people have, when they resist God's will . They do not dare oppose God openly, they take it out on the Lord's servants. Many honoured and faithful servants of God suffer agonies when the spleen of convicted Christians vents itself upon them, Friends, your quarrel is not with the servant, …
"The impressive thing here is the respect shown to Jeremiah by the pagan authorities. Strange, is it not that the outsiders seem more able to recognize the worth of God's servants than God's people do? Familiarity, they say, breeds contempt. A prophet is not without honour save in his own country." (Rev James Philip, Notes …
""All that will live godly will suffer persecution" (2 Timothy 3:12). Jeremiah is put in a foul dungeon for being faithful to God's Word. There are times when all respectability is shorn from men and the bitter hatred of their hearts is revealed. None are so bitter as those who are stung by God's Word …
"Once the stroke of God is past, the air clears and a better spirit pervades the community,under Gedaliah's kindly governorship. God's blessing on the land again appears (Jeremiah 40:12). How quick He is to turn His anger away. He doth not willingly afflict the children of men. Slow to chide, and swift to bless is …
"What price now those who say that the Old Testament God is a grim, harsh God? Bathe in the sunshine of these promises. Look at Jeremiah 31:12. Parched soul, write your name above this one, and discouraged one, take Jeremiah 31:16 from the Lord, and smile again!" (Rev James Philip, Notes on Jeremiah 31:10-22, Gardenstown …
"Study the end of verse 28 - 'My word, or theirs, saith the Lord.' This is the ultimate test. In darkness or shadow, it is always God's Word that stands. Heaven and earth will pass away, but not His Word. It is our wisdom to remember this all our days!" (Rev James Philip, Notes on …
"How human all this is! Jeremiah did as God bade him, and bought the field (Jeremiah 32:1-15); then the doubts began! 'I'm the same,' we say. Yes, but do we do what he did, lay our doubts before God? 'All my doubts I give to Jesus.' O trust Him. He means what He says, and …
