Jeremiah 23:23-29

23Am I a God who is only close at hand?” says the Lord. “No, I am far away at the same time.

24Can anyone hide from me in a secret place? Am I not everywhere in all the heavens and earth?” says the Lord.

25“I have heard these prophets say, ‘Listen to the dream I had from God last night.’ And then they proceed to tell lies in my name.

26How long will this go on? If they are prophets, they are prophets of deceit, inventing everything they say.

27By telling these false dreams, they are trying to get my people to forget me, just as their ancestors did by worshiping the idols of Baal.

28“Let these false prophets tell their dreams, but let my true messengers faithfully proclaim my every word. There is a difference between straw and grain!

29Does not my word burn like fire?” says the Lord. “Is it not like a mighty hammer that smashes a rock to pieces?
