"Seek, Love, Walk" - Sermon

Grand Lake Church

1. What does it mean to you that God is just? How does God’s justice shape your view

of His character?

2. How do we reconcile the idea of a loving God with the reality of His justice? In what

ways do God's love and justice work together rather than contradict each other?

3. God’s justice is perfect, unlike human justice. How does this challenge the way you

think about fairness and judgment in the world today?

4. How should knowing that God is just influence the way we respond to injustice in the

world? What practical steps can you take to promote justice in your community?

5. The Bible often speaks of God defending the oppressed and standing against evil.

How does this aspect of God's justice inspire or challenge you in your own life?

6. How can we trust in God’s justice when we see wickedness seemingly going

unpunished? What scriptures or truths help you maintain hope in God's ultimate

justice?

7. What role does repentance play in our understanding of God's justice? How does

recognizing our own need for forgiveness impact the way we view justice for others?

8. How can we as Christians live out God's justice in our daily lives? What attitudes or

actions might need to change in order to better reflect God's heart for justice?

9. In what ways do mercy and justice coexist in God’s nature? How does understanding

God's balance of mercy and justice affect how you relate to Him and to others?

Prayer for the Week:

Righteous and Holy God, We come before You this week, in awe of Your justice and

humbled by Your perfect ways. You are a God who loves deeply and yet judges rightly.

Help us to hold both Your love and justice in our hearts as we seek to know You more.

Thank You for being a just God who stands for truth, protects the oppressed, and

opposes evil. When we see injustice in the world, help us not to lose hope but to trust

that You will one day set all things right. Teach us to be agents of Your justice, working

to bring fairness, mercy, and compassion to those who suffer around us.

Lord, we confess that there are times when we have failed to live out Your justice in our

own lives. Forgive us when we have acted unjustly toward others or turned a blind eye

to those in need. Help us to repent and seek Your forgiveness, trusting that Your mercy

and justice meet at the cross.

As we go through this week, give us the courage to stand for what is right, even when

it’s difficult. May Your Spirit lead us to be people who reflect Your justice in our words,

our actions, and our relationships. Let our lives be a testimony to Your goodness, as we

seek to love and serve others in truth and grace.

When we feel discouraged by the brokenness of the world, remind us that Your justice

is perfect and will prevail. Help us to trust in Your timing and Your ways, knowing that

You see all and are working all things for good.

In Your perfect balance of justice and mercy, guide us, Lord, and make us instruments of

Your peace.

In Jesus' name, Amen.
