Zephaniah opens his prophesy to Judah with God’s promise to rid the land of those who claim to worship Him but actually they have mixed worship of false gods into the name of the only true God, thus bringing His judgments upon them.
The Man
Pastor Rick teaches from Genesis chapter 43.
From Worry to Worship
The prophet was deeply moved by his interaction with his God in spite of initial alarm, perplexity and frustration. His submission to God led to communion with God and from worry to worship.
True Believers live by Faith
The prophet was determine to submit and receive from God whatever God answered, and God did answer him.
Dissatisfaction with God
The prophet complained to God that He was not doing enough to curb the wicked behavior of his countrymen. The answer God gave the prophet was unnerving.
