The Law of Place

The prophet Jeremiah was instructed by the Spirit to go down to the potter’s shed and await a Divine visitation (Jer. 18:1-11). Interesting enough, the Spirit would

not speak to Jeremiah at his current residence but directed the prophet to go to a certain locale. This narrative may indicate that some revelation may be “place-specific” and will only be available when we are in the geographic location indicated.

This is an expression of God’s sovereignty in revealing or concealing information at a certain time and in a certain manner. This may be a good admonition for us to stay faithful to the “place” where we have been assigned.
