As the prophet Jeremiah stood amidst the smoldering ruins of his beloved city, he was overcome with grief and hopelessness. What made it even more painful is that he knew this devastation could have been avoided if the nation had only listened to God. But at his lowest point of despair, he remembered God’s faithfulness, and calling this to mind renewed his faltering hope. When your world seems to be crumbling around you, and you feel overwhelmed by the struggles and pain of life, shift your focus back to God’s goodness, trusting that He is ruling over it all and that your hope should rest in Him alone.
Identity
Imagine waking up tomorrow and not remembering who you are, and then having to live that way for the next 20 or 30 years. What an awful existence that would be! But the truth is, many Christians live with a similar condition. They’ve never been told who they are in Christ, and so they live their entire Christian life without ever knowing their true identity as a child of God; unsure of why they even exist at all. In this series, we will expose the lies Satan uses to keep us trapped in that prison, and we will discover the truth of what the Bible says about who we really are in Christ.
