Context of Jeremiah 7:25

23But I did tell them this, ‘Obey me, and I will be your God, and you will be my people. Live the way I told you to live so that things will go well for you.’ 24But they didn’t obey me or pay attention to me. They followed their own plans and their stubborn, evil ways. They went backward and not forward. From the time that your ancestors left Egypt until now, I have sent all my servants the prophets to you again and again. 26But you didn’t obey me or pay attention to me. You became impossible to deal with, and you were worse than your ancestors. 27“Jeremiah, you will say all these things to them, but they will not obey you. You will call to them, but they will not respond to you.

The promise is very encouraging. Let God's will be your rule, and his favour shall be your happiness. God was displeased with disobedience.
