Jeremiah 32:17  Ah, Sovereign Lord, you have made the heavens and the earth by your great power and outstretched arm. Nothing is too hard for you. ‭(NIV‬‬)

**Jeremiah 32:27  I am the Lord, the God of all mankind. Is anything too hard for me? (NIV)

**Jeremiah 33:3**  Call to me and I will answer you and tell you great and unsearchable things you do not know. (NIV)

Prayerlessness is indifference. Prayerlessness is carelessness. Prayerlessness is heedlessness.

If we put a little effort into it, we could come up with a few more “lessnesses.” 

The three verses at the top of the page today are among people’s favorite verses to memorize. It would do us well to revisit these chapters. Chapter 32 in particular is a message of judgment and disaster. God shows Jeremiah what lies on the other side of disaster but first comes disaster. It would be good to understand what caused the disaster and avoid similar behavior and mindsets.

Chapter 33 describes the restoration to come and the promise of the Messiah. (See verses 15 and following.) 

Commit these verses to memory. Remember where they came from. Take full note of their context. Align your mind with God’s thoughts. Attune your heart to his love. Acknowledge the wonderful reality of 32:17: 

Ah, Sovereign Lord, you have made the heavens and the earth by your great power and outstretched arm.
Nothing is too hard for you.

Listen carefully as God declares 

“I am the Lord, the God of all mankind. Is anything too hard for me?”

Practice the presence of God and the joy of discovery in response to 33:3: 

Call to me and I will answer you and tell you great and unsearchable things you do not know.

God has invited you into his presence. He has made the way open and accessible by Jesus. This is a good day to learn how to pray. This is a good day to practice prayerfulness.

I will pray at all times with all kinds of prayer practices.

Our Father, teach us to pray in days of looming disaster and days of restoration. Teach us to pray now and always. Amen.

Daily D – Genesis 46:2-4

Genesis 46:2-4 During the night God spoke to him in a vision. “Jacob! Jacob!” he called. “Here I am,” Jacob replied. “I am God, the God of your father,” the voice said. “Do not be afraid to go down to Egypt, for there I will make your family into a great nation. I will go with you down to Egypt, and I will bring you back again. You will die in Egypt, but Joseph will be with you to close your eyes.”

Daily D – Genesis 43:26-28

Genesis 43:26-28 When Joseph came home, they gave him the gifts they had brought him, then bowed low to the ground before him. After greeting them, he asked, “How is your father, the old man you spoke about? Is he still alive?” “Yes,” they replied. “Our father, your servant, is alive and well.” And they bowed low again.

Daily D – Genesis 41:37-42

Genesis 41:37-42 Joseph’s suggestions were well received by Pharaoh and his officials. So Pharaoh asked his officials, “Can we find anyone else like this man so obviously filled with the spirit of God?” Then Pharaoh said to Joseph, “Since God has revealed the meaning of the dreams to you, clearly no one else is as intelligent or wise as you are. You will be in charge of my court, and all my people will take orders from you. Only I, sitting on my throne, will have a rank higher than yours.”

Pharaoh said to Joseph, “I hereby put you in charge of the entire land of Egypt.” Then Pharaoh removed his signet ring from his hand and placed it on Joseph’s finger. He dressed him in fine linen clothing and hung a gold chain around his neck.

Daily D – Genesis 37:5-7

Genesis 37:5-7 One night Joseph had a dream, and when he told his brothers about it, they hated him more than ever. “Listen to this dream,” he said. “We were out in the field, tying up bundles of grain. Suddenly my bundle stood up, and your bundles all gathered around and bowed low before mine!”

Daily D – Genesis 32:24-32

Genesis 32:24-32 This left Jacob all alone in the camp, and a man came and wrestled with him until the dawn began to break. When the man saw that he would not win the match, he touched Jacob’s hip and wrenched it out of its socket. Then the man said, “Let me go, for the dawn is breaking!”…
