TITLE: THE LORD IS GOODNAHUM 1:1-7

Nahum is a book of judgment; a sequel to the book of Jonah.

Nahum’s message is a heavy burden; a message of doom and gloom.

(Most prophecies were not of good fortune but of judgment out of disobedience to God.)

TITLE: THE LORD IS GOODNAHUM 1:1-7

Point 1 We have an heavenly assurance:-In the backdrop of doom and gloom God is

still good. -Even in the midst of judgment God is still

good. (ref. Rom. 8:28)1. He gives you a lesson

2. He gives you a test3. He grades you on your test

4. You get rewarded for your test

TITLE: THE LORD IS GOODNAHUM 1:1-7

Point 2 We have an heavenly assistant:

-God is a stronghold in the day of trouble.(Stronghold-meaning a place of safety and refuge.)

-We have a place where we can flee in a time of trouble.

-God is jealous (ref. vs.2); human jealousy is sin.-God views us as a precious possession.

-He places Himself between places, people, and events that may cause us harm.

-We are precious to God. -God is in control of everything (ref. vs. 3)

TITLE: THE LORD IS GOODNAHUM 1:1-7

Point 3 We have an heavenly acquaintance:

-He knows those who trust in Him. (ref. vs. 7)-He knows His sheep; He knows us intimately.

-His sheep knows His voice and a stranger they will not follow.Question:

1. Who are you following?2. Do you know His voice?

-We are known as His friends (ref. Jhn. 15:13-15)-We are brethren and joint heirs (ref. Heb. 2:11-12); we are of

the same womb. -By His grace we are brought into the royal family and are a

part of Him. (Never take your relationship with God for granted!)

THE LORD IS GOOD!!!
