Jeremiah 23:21-27

21I did not send those prophets. But they have still run to speak to you. I did not tell them what to say, but they have continued to prophesy.

22If they had really met with me, they would have spoken my message to my people. They would have caused my people to turn away from their wicked way of life. They would have stopped my people doing evil things.’

23The Lord says, ‘Am I a God in only one place? No! I see everything everywhere!

24Do you think you can hide in a place where I cannot see you? You should know that I am everywhere, in the heavens above and on the earth.’ That is what the Lord says.

25‘I have heard the lies that these prophets are saying. They say that they have messages from me. They say, “God has spoken to me in a dream!”

26But all their words are lies. Their messages are their own ideas. When will they stop deceiving people?

27They want to make my people forget who I am. They use their dreams to do this. They tell them to each other. They are as bad as their ancestors. They also forgot who I am when they worshipped the false god, Baal.
