Verse of the Day
Jeremiah 36:32
“Jeremiah took another scroll and gave it to Baruch … who wrote on it at the instruction of Jeremiah all the words of the book which Jehoiakim king of Judah had burned in the fire.”
Jeremiah carefully declared every word God had given him, even though King Jehoiakim did not want to hear this message. Jehoiakim tried to silence the prophet and eliminate the message he declared.
Jehoiakim took the scroll that contained the message, cut it into small pieces, and cast it into a fire until nothing was left. By burning the scroll, he thought he was eliminating God’s words and making them disappear as if they had never been written.
But he was to discover that God’s Word cannot be destroyed! His Word is settled in Heaven forever (Psalm 119:89).
Jeremiah simply dictated the words once again. But this time, even more words were added. Jehoiakim had learned powerful lessons: No person can silence God. His Word will go forth. And His Word stands forever!
This demonstrates important truths. God’s Word is not merely a scroll, piece of paper, or message on a computer screen. And the Bible is not just a book. It is eternally true and packed with spiritual power. As Jesus said, His words are spirit and life (John 6:63). They cannot be destroyed or erased.
You should take God’s Word seriously. You should immerse yourself in His Word. It teaches you His thoughts. It opens the door to His power. It provides perfect guidance and timely correction. It is eternally true and stands forever.
