“Call to me and I will answer you and tell you great and unsearchable things you do not know.” Jeremiah 33:3 NIV
The NLT replaces the words unsearchable things with remarkable secrets. When there’s knowledge of a big secret, we all want to be in the know. There is a level of satisfaction and joy in knowing what is about to happen. In addition to that, our level of joy is heightened even more so when we are the first to know.
In today’s reading, the focus is on God’s promise to the Israelites for their restoration, peace, and glorious return from captivity. In the midst of their trouble and calamity, all would seem lost as they’ve been uprooted from their land, they’ve lost their homes, their possessions, and even their joy.
But God tells Jeremiah to call out to Him – to ask Him for the answers to the unknown, the uncertainty, the unsearchable things, and the secrets – and He will tell him.
God wants to share His plan with us, but we can’t figure it out on our own. We need to go to the plan maker – the Lord who made, formed, and created the earth. He is almighty and all knowing, and wants to tell us of all the wonderful and marvellous things that He has in store for us, which we can never figure out on our own.

That same verse stood out for me: “Ask me and I will tell you remarkable secrets you do not know about things to come.”
Jeremiah 33:3 NLT
As someone who needs to know😏 this resonates with me. I want to know about things to come. I want to know remarkable secrets. I want to know what the future holds. I also want to ask but maybe having patience in the Creator of the future would be better…or maybe we ask and don’t hear what we want to hear.
