Chris.
Judah was falsely entertained by false 'prophets'. This became a part of the reason for their crisis and tragedy. The people of Judah could have had a more Blessed and Prosperous Life in God. That was God's intention for them. Because of their negligence they missed out so much from the Blessing of the Lord. We need to guard against negligence and compromise.
