Isaiah 5:20

Psalm 82:1-4

“They do not know or understand; they wander in darkness. All the foundations of the earth are shaken.” (Psalm 82:5 )

Daniel 1:1-7

How Should You Respond When Your World Is Shaken Up?

• Don’t be surprised! 

1 Peter 4:12

“I have told you these things so that in Me you may have peace. You will have suffering in this world. Be courageous! I have conquered the world.” (John 16:33 )

 Main Sources For Every Problem We Face:

my old nature; the world; Satan; God

• Consider how God might use the problem/challenge you’re facing.

“For I know the plans I have for you”—this is the Lord’s declaration—“plans for your welfare, not for disaster, to give you a future and a hope.” (Jeremiah 29:11 )

Why Does God Shake Things Up?

1. To inspect (Jeremiah 17:10 )

Ask yourself: What is this revealing about me?

2. To correct (Hebrews 12:8-11 , Job 5:17 )

Ask yourself: What is this teaching me?

3. To direct (Proverbs 16:9 )

Ask yourself: Where is this leading me?

4. To protect (Job 36:16 )

Ask yourself: How is this protecting me?

5. To perfect (1 Peter 5:10 , Romans 5:3-4 )

Ask yourself: Where and how can I grow from this?

• Trust God even though I don’t understand it.

“A man’s steps are determined by the Lord, so how can anyone understand his own way?”  (Proverbs 20:24 )

“ ⁵ Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and do not rely on your own understanding; ⁶ think about Him in all your ways, and He will guide you on the right paths.” (Proverbs 3:5-6 )
