#soap # Micah 07 ## Title: Remember the Goodness of God ## Scripture: (Micah 7:18-20) “Who is a God like you? Who forgives sin and pardons the rebellion of those who remain among his people? Who does not stay angry forever, but delights in showing loyal love? Who will once again have mercy on us? Who will conquer our evil deeds? Who will hurl all our sins into the depths of the sea? You will be loyal to Jacob and extend your loyal love to Abraham, which you promised on oath to our ancestors in ancient times.” (NET) ## Observation: Throughout Micah, God is talking about where the people had fallen and the possible judgment on the way. However, the Lord ends the prophet’s discourse by reminding the people He is still great and wants good things for them. We can sometimes become frustrated because of seasons of difficulty. It can be easy to forget about the goodness of God when difficulty becomes acute. It is important that even when we are crying out to God, we also remember who we are talking to. We are talking to our great God who loves us more than we can imagine. ## Application: Take time to think about the goodness of God and write down 10 things the Lord has done for you. ## Prayer: Thank You, Jesus, for the million little miracles we will not notice today.
