Jeremiah’s Call and Commission The LORD’s message came to me,
“Before I formed you in your mother’s womb I chose you. Before you were born I set you apart. I appointed you to be a prophet to the nations.”
I answered,“Oh, Sovereign LORD, Really I do not know how to speak well enough for that, for I am too young.”
The LORD said to me,“Do not say,‘I am too young.’ But go to whomever I send you and say whatever I tell you.
Do not be afraid of those to whom I send you, for I will be with you to protect you,” says the LORD.
Then the LORD reached out his hand and touched my mouth and said to me,“I will most assuredly give you the words you are to speak for me.
Know for certain that I hereby give you the authority to announce to nations and kingdoms that they will be uprooted and torn down, destroyed and demolished, rebuilt and firmly planted.”
