I knew you even before you were conceived.
Jeremiah 1:4-5
4 Now Yahweh’s word came to me, saying, 5 “Before I formed you in the womb, I knew you. Before you were born, I sanctified you. I have appointed you a prophet to the nations.” (WEB)
When Jeremiah was called to be a prophet to Israel, God told him that even before he had been conceived in his mother’s womb, he was known by God and set apart for His divine purposes. Knowing this surely gave Jeremiah the strength to live out his destiny, even in the darkest of times. And the same is true for you. When everything else around you does not make sense, this bedrock truth can give you the assurance to keep going. What a wonderful thought—the God of the universe knows you intimately and set you apart for His purposes even before you were conceived!
PRAYER
Father, it is truly humbling to know that Your amazing love for me existed even before I entered this world. You knew me and set me apart for Your special purpose long before I was born. Help me to receive a deeper revelation of this truth so that I might continue to live out my destiny in the shadow of Your love.
Amen.
