Living It Out This Week
We all want to be independent and do things on our own. This is not necessarily a bad characteristic but sometimes can get in the way of Jesus and the life he has for us. Autonomy is not the idea of following Jesus–submission to who He is, is the path. May these verses help you follow Jesus this week.
Sunday-Revelation 3.14-22: Independence is a key value in our culture. Yet, it can get in the way of our relationship with Jesus. Spend some time praying about your need for Jesus.
Monday-Colossians 1.9-14: What ways does this passage help us see our need for Jesus? The goal of our faith is not just heaven, but pleasing Christ in all ways.
Tuesday-Colossians 1.15-23: Who is Jesus? These verses help us answer the question. Notice the traits of Christ presented by Paul. Does this align with your view of Jesus? What do you need to be reminded of from these verses?
Wednesday-Colossians 2.6-15: There are many half-truths swirling around us these days. It will take diligent and vigilant efforts on our part to stay rooted in Christ. Spend some time praying for Jesus’ church in America
Thursday-Colossians 3.1-17: Being rooted in the Gospel demands we live differently. Look at the many ways we are to act differently because of who Jesus is in our life. How closely does Jesus’ church look like Jesus?
Friday-Colossians 4.2-6: May we pray for boldness to proclaim Jesus in all ways and as clearly as we can. May we have wisdom to know the best way to reach people for the Lord. Above all may we have grace and love.
Saturday-Revelation 4.1-11 Join us in worship tomorrow! Pray for our worship tomorrow. Pray that our eyes would see the Lord! Invite someone to church.
