1:4-5 In his first message from the Lord, Jeremiah learned three important truths about God: his knowledge of all things, including individuals; his ability to choose individuals for specific tasks even before they come into existence; and his willingness to extend his authority to the people he calls. • God set Jeremiah apart to perform a special task and granted him the official status of a prophet when he appointed Jeremiah to that task. • Jeremiah’s ministry extended to the nations. Although he traveled away from the kingdom of Judah only three times (see 13:4-7; 43:7-8), his written materials have been read worldwide.
