Restoring

Mar 30, 2025    Pastor Craig Babcock

In this powerful exploration of the book of Nahum, we're reminded of God's sovereignty over nations and the consequences of forgetting His ways. The prophecy against Nineveh serves as a stark warning about the dangers of complacency and the importance of passing down faith to future generations. We see how even the mightiest empires can fall when they neglect spiritual wisdom and rely solely on their own strength. The imagery of lions failing to teach their cubs to hunt parallels the failure of passing down vital spiritual truths and practical skills. This message challenges us to consider how we're preparing the next generation to face life's challenges with faith and wisdom. Are we storing up treasures for our children, or are we equipping them to 'hunt' and grow strong in their own faith journey? This lesson from ancient history remains remarkably relevant, urging us to actively cultivate our relationship with God and intentionally disciple those who come after us.
