Sermon preached on Sunday, November 20, 2011 at Garden Valley Chapel; Misc. Scripture.

Today, my beloved I want to endeavor to disclose the heart of God for the orphan by first looking at the OT and Lord-willing next week by looking at the NT.

I trust this short series will develop your understanding of our God as the Father to the fatherless and how such knowledge is truly wonderful.

I pray that your heart will be moved to defend the orphan and that God would endear your hearts to Himself in all of this study.

Today I want to simply lay the foundation by looking at three attributes of our Heavenly Father. These attributes reveal His heart toward the orphan.

1.GOD'S JUSTICE
2.GOD'S MERCY
3.GOD'S BENEVOLENCE

Join us for this first of two messages dedicated to discover the Heart of God for the Orphan.
