The Life God Wants for You (Jeremiah 24-25)
God’s plan for us isn’t always what we’d plan, but it has greater purpose.
1. We’re sanctified through hardship (24:1-10)
– God uses hardship to build upon our redeemable qualities (1-7)
– God uses hardship to prune out of us what causes harm (8-10)
2. We serve God in His way not ours (25:1-14)
– Sometimes God calls us to keep ministering to those who keep rejecting Him (1-7)
– God can both use people’s evil for His purposes and judge their evil fairly (8-14)
3. We obey knowing the alternative (25:15-38)
– No one can escape God’s wrath, which is why obeying Him is better for us (15-29)
– God’s wrath is definitive and complete, so we implore people to not chose it (30-38)
