Zephaniah’s prophecy continues with addressing the cause of Israel’s judgment as well as the ultimate solution. God’s plans for Israel are glorious, but the process of making fallen sinful creatures require more patience than we’d imagine. The good news is God is more patient than we are.

1. People who aren’t pursuing God shouldn’t expect to get closer to Him.

2. There are people who lie and people willing to be lied to.

3. The promises of God are worth knowing as much as they are worth looking forward to.
