Profound Truths to Live By

2025 THEME: Burning Hearts

Title: Profound Truths to Live By

Scripture: Jeremiah 38-Lamentations 5

I. GOD REIGNS- NO JOKE (38-41)

We will soon learn two things: Earthly kings have (limited power) for a little time, while God has
(unlimited power) for all time.

God is the Lord of Heaven’s Armies. He will not be (thwarted). His plans will not be (undercut).
He is Lord over all (kings and kingdoms).

II. GOD IS TO BE WORSHIPED-NO SUBSTITUTES (42-45)

“Our Lord hates when we give the worship that is due him to something in creation.” (PDT)

God’s anger is the (product of His love). True love is (rightfully jealous). God has chosen us as His
own, and He will not (share our heart) with other lovers.

III. GOD IS ALL-POWERFUL-NO LIMITS (46-52)

One of the most common mistakes we make is thinking God (is too small).
As we bring Jeremiah to a close, we are struck by (Who God is) and (how powerful) He really is.

IV. GOD IS MERCIFUL- NO FAILING (Lamentations)

Even in our darkest moments, even in our weakest moments, we have a promise from God’s
own Word that He (never fails) and he (never leaves us). 3:22-24

Next week: week: The Calamity and the Cure
