No One Like Our God

Who is a God like our God? As we close our series through the book of Micah, the prophet ends not by pointing us to ourselves, but by pointing us to the character of God. Micah 7:18–20 reminds us that our God pardons sin, delights in steadfast love, shows compassion, defeats our iniquity, remains faithful, and always keeps His promises. All of these truths ultimately point us to the good news of Jesus Christ. At the cross, our sin is paid for and God’s love is displayed. Through the resurrection, sin and death are defeated. Our hope is not found in our ability to be faithful enough, but in the faithfulness of God. Big Idea: There is no one like our God. In this message: • He pardons iniquity • He passes over transgression • He gives His inheritance to the unworthy • He does not stay angry forever • He delights in steadfast love • He has compassion again • He treads our iniquities underfoot • He casts our sins into the depths of the sea • He remains faithful • He keeps His promises Scripture: Micah 7:18–20 Questions to Consider: • Am I worshiping the God of the Bible, or a version of God I’ve created in my own mind? • Have I truly rested in the finished work of Christ? • Who in my life needs to hear that there really is no God like our God?

What Do I Do Now?

Micah 4:1-5

Will injustice ever end? Will war ever cease? Will fear finally disappear? In Micah 4:1–5, the prophet lifts our eyes beyond the brokenness of the present to God’s promised future. Through the lens of the New Testament, we see that these promises find their fulfillment in Jesus Christ. In this message, we explore the biblical truth that God’s Kingdom is already—but not yet. Jesus inaugurated His Kingdom at His first coming, is gathering the nations through the gospel today, and will one day return to restore all things. Main Idea: Jesus has begun His Kingdom, is gathering the nations, and will one day restore all things. In this sermon: Jesus Established His Kingdom (Micah 4:1–2) Jesus Is Gathering and Transforming the Nations (Micah 4:2–3) King Jesus Will Restore All Things (Micah 4:3–5) Whether you’re wrestling with the state of the world or longing for hope in the middle of suffering, Micah reminds us that Christians live between the empty tomb and the new creation—confident that King Jesus is making all things new.

Micah 3:1-12

Micah 1-2:13

Most people don't enjoy being confronted. Yet some of the most loving things someone can do is tell us the truth when something is wrong. In the opening chapters of Micah, God confronts His people about their sin, hypocrisy, and spiritual drift. They were still gathering for worship and practicing religion, but their hearts had wandered far from Him. Through the prophet Micah, God exposes what is beneath the surface—not to destroy His people, but to restore them. In this message we explore: • Why God begins with His own people • The seriousness of sin and its consequences • How sinful actions begin with sinful desires • Why we often resist the truth we need most • The hope of restoration through the coming Shepherd-King Big Idea: God lovingly confronts the sin of His people so that He might restore His people. Whether you are walking closely with the Lord or find yourself drifting, Micah reminds us that God's correction is not evidence of His absence—it is evidence of His love. 📖 Scripture: Micah 1:1–2:13 ⛪ Ascend Bible Church | Indianapolis, IN 🌐 ascendbible.church [http://ascendbible.church]
