Lament

July 28, 2024 Speaker: Kevin Deyette Series: Micah

Passage: Micah 7:1–10

Text: Micah 7:1-10
Title: Lament

Lament: An expression of grief/sorrow, to mourn/grieve

Micah's reasons to lament:
1. Dissapearance of righteous people
2. Corruption of leaders
3. Complete social unraveling

Micah does 3 things in his lament:
1. Looks to God
2. Waits on God
3. Trusts in God

Summary: God welcomes our honest lament of our difficulties, but entrusts us to look to Him, wait on Him, and trust in Him.

The first response of Christians when facing hardship shouldn't be strategy or despair- but prayer to God.

What is your biggest burden, anxiety, or difficulty right now?
