#soap # Nahum 03 ## Title: No Enemy is Too Big ## Scripture: (Nahum 3:1) “Woe to the city guilty of bloodshed! She is full of lies; she is filled with plunder; she has hoarded her spoil!” (NET) ## Observation: At this time, Assyria must have seemed completely invincible. They were vicious and ruthless people and they were full of “murder and lies.” However, God instructed Nahum to speak to them with courage and confidence. They may have been big, but God was and still is bigger. No matter how big they were, Nineveh was not bigger than God. He prophesies that the nation of Assyria was going to fall, and they do. No matter what enemy you face or what situation seems invincible, it is never bigger than our great God. This reminds me of a cartoon my girls would watch when they were little. It was about a kid who was afraid of monsters under his bed. He was comforted by remembering God was bigger and sang a song that said, “God is bigger than the boogey man. He’s bigger than the Godzilla or the monsters on TV. God is bigger than the boogey man, and He’s watching out for you and me.” ## Application: Trust that the Lord is bigger than any problem you face. ## Prayer: Thank You, Jesus, for always being bigger than any difficulty that comes our way.
