Seeking God in the Storm

Seeking God in the Storm
Don will be preaching this week on Isaiah 36-39, which you can read HERE.

Here are some questions from a RightNow! study called  The Gospel of Isaiah.  You can access your RightNow! account and find even more resources on Isaiah.

In the ancient Near East, people believed that gods had territories. When the Assyrians come to Jerusalem, what do they say about Yahweh? How do they describe his power?

Hezekiah’s response to the Assyrians is to pray. Is that always your reaction to frightening or devastating news? What makes it hard to pray in the face of threats?

Read Luke 22:39-46. How did Jesus respond when he faced perhaps the most threatening moment of his life? What do you notice about his words on the Mount of Olives?

What about God makes him trustworthy?

What about your circumstances makes it difficult to trust God?

What is something you can do to trust God more this week than you did last week?

We learn to trust God and His character from The Word, others, and our circumstances.  Like the father of the sick child, we cry out to Jesus, "Lord, I believe!  Help my unbelief!"
