Hope Despite Loss

God provides us with hope despite loss, by reminding us of the fulfillment of His Words of judgment (ch. 1:10), which proves that we can trust His words of restoration!

1. The loss of personal holiness. (v.1-2)
2. The loss of God's presence. (v.3)
3. The loss of the king. (v.4-11)
4. Despite the losses, the exiles retained a living hope, because of the promised sequel – the restoration of holiness, God's presence, and the kingship.
   How can we retain hope, when we go through loss?
