How Great is Our God, Part 2—by Justin Renton
August 22, 2022
Sermon summary:
Job 9: 1–6 Job lost perspective of who God was. He lost all he owned in one day, had his children die in one swoop; his health suffered, his reputation was shot. Yet he kept his view of God pure. He saw how amazing he is.
Look up and see. Examine what he has made.
Sometimes we pray expecting God to come through and he doesn't. How do we respond?
We cannot argue or disrespect him.
Job 36:26 The numbers of His years are infinite. Eternity is hard to grasp.
Isaiah 55:8–9 God's ways are greater than ours.
Hardship make us look up at God. We don't understand why but have to trust him.
Decide to Trust God:
- In the good and bad
- With the easy and hard scriptures.
- With your past and your future.

A lesson about prayer, how our prayers come before God like bowls of incense.
Biblical justice calls us to more than punishment—it demands mercy, righteousness, and action. See others as loved by God and help the voiceless thrive.
True righteousness is justice in practice: following Jesus by seeking what is right, defending the vulnerable, and restoring dignity to those around us.
