Memory Verse for the Week: Micah 7:18 (ESV)

Who is a God like you, pardoning iniquity and passing over transgression for the remnant of his inheritance? He does not retain his anger forever, because he delights in steadfast love.

INTRO: When have you seen the powerful threaten the weak?

HIS WAYS, NOT OUR WAYS
In what ways does the LORD work differently than we do?

THE ENDANGERED HERO
How does Jesus do what we were made for but have never been able to do?

THE CALL TO LOVE & HUMILITY
How has the LORD called us to Himself and to His ways?

YOU CAN PRAY WITH US …

1. Worship the LORD for His compassion and grace to sinners like us. Praise Him, Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, that He is not like us, that His thoughts are not like our thoughts, and that His ways are not like our ways.
2. How have you lived as if you deserve the highest place, refusing to live humbly? Confess your pride as a true effort to replace Jesus as God. Ask Him to forgive you and change your heart to bow before Him truly.
3. Give thanks to Jesus for the beauty of what Jesus did to go into peril to rescue us from sin, death and hell. Thank Him for moving down so radically to do what we could never do – atone for our sins and secure us in love.
4. Who do you know that tends quickly toward pride or superiority? Pray for them, asking the Lord to open their eyes to God’s love of humility and His design so that we can walk humbly with Him.
5. Ask the Holy Spirit to help you grow in compassion for the weak and those who offer you no advantage. Pray for His work to so secure you in His resurrection power that you’re unafraid to live humbly and in true love for others.
