Through the prophet Jeremiah, God reminded His people of what He had told their ancestors, the children of Israel when they came out of Egypt. As we read these words, we should realize that when we hear God’s word preached or taught, He is talking to us. It’s up to us to listen and to follow what He says. He wants us to be obedient to what we learn – to put it into practice. That’s how we show that we are really His. He says, “Obey me, I will be your God, and you will be MY PEOPLE!”
