The word of the Lord came to Jeremiah a second time, while he was still shut up in the court of the guard: 2 “Thus says the Lord who made the earth, the Lord who formed it to establish it—the Lord is his name: 3 Call to me and I will answer you, and will tell you great and hidden things that you have not known.
Along my spiritual walk, there have been many moments where I felt uncertain, scared, lost, and worried about my future. I wasn’t in a literal jail but felt imprisoned in my mind, heart, and actions. Our earthly life is full of trials, temptations, and worldly desires that blur answers to questions that can make you lose sleep and concentration and leave you wondering what the future holds.
I recently had a conversation with a friend who seemed lost in many ways with questions about everything. The only answer I could provide was Him. Based on past experiences, it wasn’t the answer they wanted to hear. But, it was the truth. The only person that can provide anyone peace is our Lord. The one who formed this earth and us. Our Lord. It wasn’t until knowing, understanding, and most importantly, believing in our Lord’s promise of restoration and eternal life with Him that will you have the answers to all the questions.
Our Lord says, Call to me and I will answer and tell of great and hidden things.
We need to pray. Pray with the knowledge of His specific promises of answered prayers. God wants to be involved in our lives always. He wants to answer every question we have. Just ask.
Psalm 91:15 When he calls to me, I will answer him; I will be with him in trouble;
I will rescue him and honor him.
Isaiah 55:6-7 “Seek the Lord while he may be found; call upon him while he is near; 7 let the wicked forsake his way, and the unrighteous man his thoughts; let him return to the Lord, that he may have compassion on him, and to our God, for he will abundantly pardon.
