Living It Out This Week
The end is near! Sometimes we hear this and just shrug it off. Other times we may become obsessed with the events. Regardless, Scripture reminds us to be patient as we actively wait for Jesus’ second coming. May these verses help you grow in patience as we wait for His return.
Sunday-James 5.7-11: Anything stick out to you form today’s message or these verses? Patience will help us grow into spiritual maturity. Where is God showing you patience?
Monday-Matthew 24.1-35: A long passage but one needed to remind us to wait patiently for the Lord. Notice how Jesus reminds us to not be alarmed by what others say but be ready for his quick return. What hope has Jesus given you?
Tuesday-Matthew 24.36-51: We may see signs of the end but we must remember no one knows the exact time. Waiting does not mean inactive, it means be about the business of the Kingdom of God.
Wednesday-Matthew 24.31-46: As we wait for the Lord’s return we go about serving others, loving God and loving others. How can we do this as a church, families and individuals?
Thursday-1 Thessalonians 5.1-11: Paul is encouraging the early church to know some certain truths about the Lord’s coming; what are they? How can these help us persevere in our faith?
Friday-Revelation 21.1-8: A glimpse of the end of time. A glimpse to help us know soon we will live with God. This after all is the full hope of mankind—to live with our maker.
Saturday-James 5.12-19: Join us in worship tomorrow! Pray for our worship tomorrow. Pray that our eyes would see the Lord! Invite someone to be with you in church.
