On 1st January as always my church gives everyone a chance to get a BIBLE VERSE of the YEAR for themselves. I got the verse "I have put my word in your mouth" Jeremiah 51:16, but I'm struggling to know it's full or proper meaning. PLEASE anyone explain Verse's meaning. PRAISE THE LORD.
In a few words the message for you (and for all christians as well) is just speak to other people about the good news of the salvation that God offers to people through the sacrifice of His Son Jesus Christ.
That's a great verse Joshua (btw, I think you meant to write Isaiah 51:16); a verse of great assurance to Judah (who would go into Babylonian captivity about one hundred years later).
Even though Isaiah's message may seem presumptuous, Isaiah had already prophesied (as did other prophets) of Judah's & Israel's captivities. But now, the promise was given that they would be released from captivity & return to their own land. Isaiah chapter 51 is but one chapter of God's encouragement for them to be faithful to their God & Redeemer (i.e. hopefully they would have learnt their lesson from their punishment). So in verse 16 (the special verse given to you), the words here are reminders to Judah of God's special, unflinching interest in His special possession.
"I have put my words in thy mouth": assures them that they were the only ones of all the peoples of the Earth to receive God's Laws & Truths; they were the ones selected through whom the Messiah would come & through Him & because of Him, would God's Word spread to all. The Gospel of Christ was the message of life & hope to all those sitting in darkness bound in sin's shackles. Judah (& Israel) already received God's Truths & they were expected to learn from their punishment to declare the Name of the LORD as a witness to His Power & Goodness. But did they? Sadly, No.
But this part of the verse you've received is indeed special & timely. You should not be as Judah was, a privileged people with every reason to be a shining light to the world, yet remaining unchanged. As a child of God, with Christ's Spirit reigning in your heart, you not only have God's Word hidden there, but you are God's Light to shine forth & bring His Word to others who might be sitting in darkness & bondage; to share the words He's put into your heart & mouth. May those words echo King David's praise in Psalm 35:28, "And my tongue shall speak of thy righteousness and of thy praise all the day long." Be greatly blessed, dear brother.
Repeated from ( Jer. 10:12-16); except that "Israel" is not in the Hebrew of ( Jer. 51:19). Which ought, therefore, to be translated, "He is the Former of all things, and (therefore), of the rod of His inheritance" (that is, of the nation peculiarly His own). In ( Jer. 10:1-25), the contrast is between the idols and God. Here it is between the power of populous Babylon and that of God. "Thou dwellest upon many waters" ( Jer. 51:13); but God can, by merely "uttering His voice," create "many waters" ( Jer. 51:16). The "earth" (in its material aspect), is the result of His "power". The "world" (viewed in its orderly system), is the result of His "wisdom," etc. ( Jer. 51:15). Such an Almighty Being can be at no loss for resources to affect His purpose against Babylon.
This is a description of how He did the creation. It also tells us that God alone is in charge of the lightning, rain and wind.
