Journey Group Discussion Questions:
What do you think motivates people’s hatred of God? How might “spiritual forces of evil” (Eph 6:12) influence them, and how can these influences leave us bewildered, anxious, and even despairing?
What authority do God-haters have over us who believe? If we believe that any authority they might have is under God’s authority, why are we sometimes anxious or despairing over their hatred of God?
God only tolerates the wicked for a time even as he pursues the lost and grants us authority to influence them with the gospel. Why is prayer essential to living in this authority, experiencing hope, and living godly and peaceful lives in witness to the gospel (1 Tim. 2:1-4, 8)? Who are you praying for in this way?
