The first chapter of the book of Jeremiah discloses much. He was the son of Hilkiah ( "my portion is Jehovah"), a priest of Anathoth ( "answers to prayer"). When we participate in the Census, we are accounted for thus able to be appointed for duty. Jeremiah was just such a man. In the thirteenth year of Josiah ("whom Jehovah heals"), the Word of THE LORD came. This parallels the 13th year since the millennial celebration of the birth of Jesus Christ. Those who are appointed for healing of “the land” are being raised up.
Jeremiah 1:5 Before I formed thee in the belly I knew thee; and before thou camest forth out of the womb I sanctified thee, [and] I ordained thee a prophet unto the nations.
This one verse provides us with a peak at the non-quantum aspect of Our Heavenly Father. Before Jeremiah was “formed” he was “known” by Our Heavenly Father. He was set apart for duty, he was accounted for and appointed by Divine Intent.
:6 Then said I, Ah, Lord GOD! behold, I cannot speak: for I [am] a child.
Jeremiah claimed immaturity, incapability, lack of fullness, when approached by Our Heavenly Father. That did not sway Our Heavenly Father for HE knew of Jeremiah’s gifts and calling in the non-quantum state.
7: But the LORD said unto me, Say not, I [am] a child: for thou shalt go to all that I shall send thee, and whatsoever I command thee thou shalt speak.
Our Heavenly Father opened Jeremiah’s eyes to the power of being able to hear Our Heavenly Father and respond hence Jeremiah was empowered with a Spiritual connection to carry out his calling.
:8 Be not afraid of their faces: for I [am] with thee to deliver thee, saith the LORD.
It was clear that he would be challenged by the current system who would try to compromise and intimidate him.
:9 Then the LORD put forth his hand, and touched my mouth. And the LORD said unto me, Behold, I have put my words in thy mouth.
The anointing was all that was necessary for his ministry to be activated. Massive amount of study or information was not needed. Jeremiah did not see himself as “skilled”.
I expect to discuss more of this chapter in today’s online Bible study:
