Be Decisive (Jeremiah)
Overview
Wiersbe's "Be" Series on the Old Testament—Practical, devotional, and concise describes the "Be" series. Each of these mini-commentaries contains a wealth of practical insight into God's Word.
No nation can despise God's law and defy His rule without suffering for it. The prophecy of Jeremiah teaches that very clearly. Be Decisive tells of Jeremiah's acceptance of his leadership role and of his decisiveness in guiding Israel. This resource provides the tragic details of how Judah fled from Jeremiah's guidance and consequently paid the price for their iniquity. Wiersbe effectively illustrates that leadership is not easy but being decisive and firm in God's Word is the only way to lead well.
