NAHUM S.O.A.P. ~ CHAPTER 1

Monday, 7/13/26

Once again, not paying attention to the length of what we've been reading leads us to another "minor" prophet - this time Nahum... (which is only three chapters long... which means Habakkuk on Thursday?)

SCRIPTURE:

"I'll snap your chains and set you free from the Assyrians.” ~ Nahum 1:13

OBSERVATION:

He will - has - snapped my chains...

...and set me free...

...from the Assyrians of my sins...

...through Jesus...

Will I embrace that freedom?

Or will I remain in the broken links of those snapped chains?

APPLICATION:

Shake off and walk out of the broken links...

Celebrate my freedom...

...in and through Him...

PRAYER: 

Freeing Father God - You know how I find myself wallowing in the broken chains of my selfish and sinful wants and willfulness... I ask Your forgiveness and strength to shake them from my feet and follow You more closely, to not allowing them to become an excuse for continued stumbling along Your way - Thank You for the freedom You so freely give through Jesus - May I seek Your direction in all things today, surrendering to Your will and purposes - In Jesus's Name, and for Your honor and glorious praise...

Terrifyingly Just And Wonderfully Protective (Micah 7, Nahum 1)

Photo by Abdiel Hernandez on Pexels.com Terrifyingly Just And Wonderfully Protective (Micah 7, Nahum 1) Micah 7 brings the book to its emotional and theological climax. The prophet looks honestly at the moral collapse around him, yet he refuses to surrender to despair. He turns instead to the God who saves, shepherds, pardons, and delights in steadfast love. Nahum 1 then reinforces this…

The Lord is a jealous and avenging God; the Lord is avenging and wrathful; the Lord takes vengeance on his adversaries and keeps wrath for his enemies. The Lord is slow to anger and great in power, and the Lord will by no means clear the guilty. His way is in whirlwind and storm, and the clouds are the dust of his feet. He rebukes the sea and makes it dry; he dries up all the rivers; Bashan and Carmel wither; the bloom of Lebanon withers. The mountains quake before him; the hills melt; the earth heaves before him, the world and all who dwell in it. Who can stand before his indignation? Who can endure the heat of his anger? His wrath is poured out like fire, and the rocks are broken into pieces by him. The Lord is good, a stronghold in the day of trouble; he knows those who take refuge in him. But with an overflowing flood he will make a complete end of the adversaries, and will pursue his enemies into darkness. What do you plot against the Lord ? He will make a complete end; trouble will not rise up a second time. For they are like entangled thorns, like drunkards as they drink; they are consumed like stubble fully dried. From you came one who plotted evil against the Lord , a worthless counselor. Thus says the Lord , “Though they are at full strength and many, they will be cut down and pass away. Though I have afflicted you, I will afflict you no more. And now I will break his yoke from off you and will burst your bonds apart.” The Lord has given commandment about you: “No more shall your name be perpetuated; from the house of your gods I will cut off the carved image and the metal image. I will make your grave, for you are vile.” Behold, upon the mountains, the feet of him who brings good news, who publishes peace! Keep your feasts, O Judah; fulfill your vows, for never again shall the worthless pass through you; he is utterly cut off.
