Jeremiah 20:9 Then I said, I will not make mention of him, Nor speak any more in his name. But his word was in mine heart as a burning fire shut up in my bones, And I was weary with forbearing, and I could not stay.
Notice that Jeremiah couldn’t hold in the Word of God. That means he knew the Word. He had it in His heart. It was real to Him. Even though he wanted to quit He couldn’t.
Is it possible that the reason we do not feel this passion is because we are not full of the Word of God? Is it possible that we read about the Word, hear the Word talked about, but get all we know second hand so that the Word is not in our hearts like it was with Jeremiah.
I challenge you to get into the Word. Let it get into you. You will not be able to hold it back.
