When Jeremiah recalled to his mind God's mercies, compassion, and faithfulness, he knew there was hope, even though the season they were in and the times didn't look so promising, he had hope because God still reigned. We're going to learn that God has always, and still reigns, even when circumstances show us a different picture.

Every car has a dashboard to give us feedback of what's happening under the hood. The speedometer tells us how fast we're going, the odometer tells us how far we've gone and then there are warning lights that tell us something is wrong. Even traffic lights tell us something by color. Because of God's compassion, He will always warn us long before destruction takes place in our lives, but for many of us, we don't know what the warnings look like, or worse, we ignore them and pay the price. We're going to learn how to recognize God's warning signs that are given to us that have the potential to save us from destruction.

We live in a fast-paced world of the “instant,” that we have a tendency to believe that we can do everything. So we pack as much as we can into our life, that one day we realize, I’m much too busy. We try to develop our walk with God, strengthen our life and families, build our career...and after awhile, it all catches up with us and we burn out. God is going to show us how He cures busyness.

We fear the future, the past, relationships, being alone, terrorism, the end of the world, wars, and many “what if’s.” What if I can’t provide? What if I get sick? What if we lose our home? Let’s turn the what if into something confident instead of a fear. What if God is able to help me with my fear? He can, and He will. We’re going to learn how God helps us with our fears.

It’s hard to focus on living the dream when you’re in debt. Too many people, including Christians, struggle from paycheck to paycheck, avoid phone calls from debt collectors, leave bills unopened, and wonder how they’re going to keep things afloat. With God’s help, debt can be a thing of the past. The question is, what am I willing to do to get to where I need to be?
