Before I formed you in the womb I knew you, before you were born I set you apart; I appointed you as a prophet to the nations. Jeremiah 1:5

The person who was called to do the divine work must obey, for, like God told Jeremiah, He began to prepare us when we were still formless. David said he was formed this way (Psalm 139:13). Consequently, we can understand that we were also created this way. Even before conception, the Most High already knew us, for He led the process of fertilization that resulted in our life. 

The fear of the Lord, which leads us to obey Him, is common to those people who want to make things right. But those who are foolish judge themselves ready to do what has to be done, but that is not the truth. We have absolutely nothing in ourselves that can be used to accomplish the will of God. We always need His help to read the Bible, to minister the Word and pray as we ought to. 

Look to yourself as God sees you. He takes to Himself those that the world considers as children, and He changes them just as He wants to. So, all people need to do is allow themselves to be led by the Holy Spirit. Those that the Father sends don’t have to fear anybody, for the Omnipotent is with them to deliver them (Jeremiah 1:8). There are no flaws in the plans of the Most High. 

The Lord sends His Word to strengthen the person He has called and He reaches out His hand and touches the lips of this person. Therewith, the person obtains the necessary anointment to fulfill her ministry. So, He will use the person as He wants to, wherever He sends her. If this person remains humble and ready to learn, the Holy Spirit will guide her and use her. The Word given to you will come with power to accomplish what it proclaims (Isaiah 55:11). 

Do not try to interpret for yourself what God shows you, but talk like He says so. Those sent by the Lord have power to rip and overthrow, destroy and ruin, as well as build and plant. Therefore, wherever you are sent to, the Most High will use you according to His plans. Never do something without the celestial Father´s direction, for Jesus said, nothing can be done without Him (John 15.5b).

The great revelation given by God to the young Jeremiah was that He was watching over His word that it may be fulfilled (Jeremiah 1:12). Therefore, it does not matter the threat you may suffer. If you remain steadfast in what the Most High has told you, the enemy will not defeat you. Although everything seems like the Word will not be fulfilled, remain calm and firm in faith, for the Lord honors all things that His lips proclaim. 

Obey God and He will be with you. The Most High would never tell you something that was not His will. The Lord does not tempt anyone (James 1:13), but the evil one does this all the time. As His servant, do not abandon the Scriptures. If you think something is being handed to you but it has no biblical basis, refuse it right away, for it does not come from God. 

In Christ, with love,
