1 Moreover the word of the LORD came unto Jeremiah the second time, while he was yet shut up in the court of the prison, saying,

2 Thus saith the LORD the maker thereof, the LORD that formed it, to establish it; the LORD is his name;

3 Call unto me, and I will answer thee, and shew thee great and mighty things, which thou knowest not.

4 For thus saith the LORD, the God of Israel, concerning the houses of this city, and concerning the houses of the kings of Judah, which are thrown down by the mounts, and by the sword;

5 They come to fight with the Chaldeans, but it is to fill them with the dead bodies of men, whom I have slain in mine anger and in my fury, and for all whose wickedness I have hid my face from this city.

6 Behold, I will bring it health and cure, and I will cure them, and will reveal unto them the abundance of peace and truth.

7 And I will cause the captivity of Judah and the captivity of Israel to return, and will build them, as at the first.

8 And I will cleanse them from all their iniquity, whereby they have sinned against me; and I will pardon all their iniquities, whereby they have sinned, and whereby they have transgressed against me.

9 And it shall be to me a name of joy, a praise and an honour before all the nations of the earth, which shall hear all the good that I do unto them: and they shall fear and tremble for all the goodness and for all the prosperity that I procure unto it.

10 Thus saith the LORD; Again there shall be heard in this place, which ye say shall be desolate without man and without beast, even in the cities of Judah, and in the streets of Jerusalem, that are desolate, without man, and without inhabitant, and without beast,

11 The voice of joy, and the voice of gladness, the voice of the bridegroom, and the voice of the bride, the voice of them that shall say, Praise the LORD of hosts: for the LORD is good; for his mercy endureth for ever: and of them that shall bring the sacrifice of praise into the house of the LORD. For I will cause to return the captivity of the land, as at the first, saith the LORD.

12 Thus saith the LORD of hosts; Again in this place, which is desolate without man and without beast, and in all the cities thereof, shall be an habitation of shepherds causing their flocks to lie down.

13 In the cities of the mountains, in the cities of the vale, and in the cities of the south, and in the land of Benjamin, and in the places about Jerusalem, and in the cities of Judah, shall the flocks pass again under the hands of him that telleth them, saith the LORD.

14 Behold, the days come, saith the LORD, that I will perform that good thing which I have promised unto the house of Israel and to the house of Judah.

15 In those days, and at that time, will I cause the Branch of righteousness to grow up unto David; and he shall execute judgment and righteousness in the land.

16 In those days shall Judah be saved, and Jerusalem shall dwell safely: and this is the name wherewith she shall be called, The LORD our righteousness.

17 For thus saith the LORD; David shall never want a man to sit upon the throne of the house of Israel;

18 Neither shall the priests the Levites want a man before me to offer burnt offerings, and to kindle meat offerings, and to do sacrifice continually.

19 And the word of the LORD came unto Jeremiah, saying,

20 Thus saith the LORD; If ye can break my covenant of the day, and my covenant of the night, and that there should not be day and night in their season;

21 Then may also my covenant be broken with David my servant, that he should not have a son to reign upon his throne; and with the Levites the priests, my ministers.

22 As the host of heaven cannot be numbered, neither the sand of the sea measured: so will I multiply the seed of David my servant, and the Levites that minister unto me.

23 Moreover the word of the LORD came to Jeremiah, saying,

24 Considerest thou not what this people have spoken, saying, The two families which the LORD hath chosen, he hath even cast them off? thus they have despised my people, that they should be no more a nation before them.

25 Thus saith the LORD; If my covenant be not with day and night, and if I have not appointed the ordinances of heaven and earth;

26 Then will I cast away the seed of Jacob, and David my servant, so that I will not take any of his seed to be rulers over the seed of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob: for I will cause their captivity to return, and have mercy on them.

Matthew Henry's Jeremiah Chapter 33 Bible commentary...



The restoration of the Jews. (1-13) The Messiah promised; happiness of his times. (14-26)1-13 Those who expect to receive comforts from God, must call upon him. Promises are given, not to do away, but to quicken and encourage prayer. These promises lead us to the gospel of Christ; and in that God has revealed truth to direct us, and peace to make us easy. All who by sanctifying grace are cleansed from the filth of sin, by pardoning mercy are freed from the guilt. When sinners are thus justified, washed, and sanctified in the name of the Lord Jesus, and by the Holy Spirit, they are enabled to walk before God in peace and purity. Many are led to perceive the real difference between the people of God and the world around them, and to fear the Divine wrath. It is promised that the people who were long in sorrow, shall again be filled with joy. Where the Lord gives righteousness and peace, he will give all needful supplies for temporal wants; and all we have will be comforts, as sanctified by the word and by prayer.

14-26 To crown the blessings God has in store, here is a promise of the Messiah. He imparts righteousness to his church, for he is made of God to us righteousness; and believers are made the righteousness of God in him. Christ is our Lord God, our righteousness, our sanctification, and our redemption. His kingdom is an everlasting kingdom. But in this world prosperity and adversity succeed each other, as light and darkness, day and night. The covenant of priesthood shall be secured. And all true believers are a holy priesthood, a royal priesthood, they offer up spiritual sacrifices, acceptable to God; themselves, in the first place, as living sacrifices. The promises of that covenant shall have full accomplishment in the gospel Israel. In #Ga 6:16|, all that walk according to the gospel rule, are made to be the Israel of God, on whom shall be peace and mercy. Let us not despise the families which were of old the chosen people of God, though for a time they seem to be cast off.

we can not expect good things from GOD unless we call upon him

 


ENOCH's Jeremiah Chapter 33 comment on 4/23/2013, 8:30am...

I read this first three verses last night and at morning devotion with my family. I know GOD is speaking loud and clear to me and I take great comfort and assurance in this chapter. I know I would be feeding on this for many days to come.

 


Chanel's Jeremiah Chapter 33 comment on 2/16/2013, 6:23am...

Going through some great trials and trying to help my son through, this verse came for the word of the day in such great and timely time frame. I had a very sleepless question and answer seeking tearful night and read this word for the day. Oh how wonderful God is. I believe this from God. This gives me great inspiration to keep calling on The Lord and continue praying. The devil is a liar and wants me to believe that God isn't hearing me or wants me to do evil but I will continue to do the right thing and wait on God for he will see me through as he has said he will do. This helps my mind to stay on him and strengthens my faith to know that he will deliver us from the enemy and has great use for us in his kingdom here on earth. As I pray I pray that this word touches more and forward to my son that he may be healed and understand that God has the power and that he is the one who we need to seek and lean on. Oh the shout that's in me is bursting to get out, hallelujah. Oh how God is so worthy to be praised. Tears may fall in the night but joy comes in the morning.

 


Desmond echi's Jeremiah Chapter 33 comment about verse 3 on 2/05/2013, 12:43am...

The reason why God has not shown us great and mighty things is we refuse to call him when we are in trouble, Matthew 7:7.

 


Bobbi Jo's Jeremiah Chapter 33 comment on 9/30/2012, 10:50am...

Jeremiah 33:11 What a promise, praise to God will reverse even captivity. I am going to quit nagging God and start praising him for what I have asked for even when I don't know when I will get it. Why didn't I realize that before, no one likes a nag. He heard me the first time. Gives me a new perspective. I have been a faithless nag but that changed today. Pray for me thanking God I am no longer a faithless nag!

 


Achoko's Jeremiah Chapter 33 comment on 9/25/2012, 10:34pm...

Jeremiah 33:3 is a powerful verse that reminds us that God spoke, he is speaking and he is waiting to speak to you and me for as long as we call to him, you may be vying so many questions, of why, how, who etc, let’s call to God, he is waiting to tell you and I things we haven’t even heard before great and mighty things. Amen

 


Samuel's Jeremiah Chapter 33 comment about verse 3 on 9/08/2012, 8:17pm...

i love this chapter.do you know how great god is?take a look at the heavens at night or day and see for yourself that the one who brought us on earth wants to use us for his kingdom.that mean that we are very important and since we are so important it means that we are untouhable because he giveth and taketh life.man was created a little lower than the angels then it means that man can do many great things.look at jesus christ, look at the wonderous works he did and he stated that we can do greater works than him.i remember that in the new testament that someone was demon psesss and the disciples could not of cast out the demon and christ told them that this cometh only by fasting and praying.we as human has great spiritual capabilities but we must yes its compulsory seek god everyday walk and talk with god.be holy and he would showw you great and mighty things that thou knowest not.remember angelica zombrano and mary baxter.
