Monday
1 Peter 5:6-7 6 Humble yourselves, therefore, under God’s mighty hand, that He may lift you up in due time. 7 Cast all your anxiety on Him because He cares for you.
· Sometimes we may think we have let God down, but He is the one Who holds and lifts us up.
· Remembering this can help us stay humble.
· God cares about every tiny detail in our lives. If it matters to you, it matters to Him.
· Life can make us anxious and nervous and worried, but we are told to give that to God and trust Him with it.
· What things in your life need to be handed over?
Tuesday
1 Corinthians 3:6-9 6 I planted the seed, Apollos watered it, but God has been making it grow. 7 So neither the one who plants nor the one who waters is anything, but only God, Who makes things grow. 8 The one who plants and the one who waters have one purpose, and they will each be rewarded according to their own labor. 9 For we are co-workers in God’s service; you are God’s field, God’s building.
· Paul says bringing someone to Christ is a team effort.
· What seeds have you planted? What seeds have you watered?
· Paul also stresses that the important thing to remember is that God is the one Who makes it grow. God gets the glory. Not us.
· In verse 10, Paul also mentions he laid a foundation and someone else is building on it. Paul did his part and is confident God will finish the good work.
· Every little bit counts. Always do your part of the work, even if you’re not the one who gets to finish it.
Wednesday
Proverbs 27:17 17 As iron sharpens iron, so one person sharpens another.
· This verse shows the importance of sticking together and keeping each other focused and sharp.
· It is important we have a group of people we can rely on and stay encouraged towards our goal.
· Work with each other. Their strength might be your weakness. Your strength might be their weakness.
· In what ways can you encourage your brothers and sisters?
· In what ways do you need encouragement?
Thursday
Joshua 24:14-15 14 “Now fear the Lord and serve Him with all faithfulness. Throw away the gods your ancestors worshiped beyond the Euphrates River and in Egypt, and serve the Lord. 15 But if serving the Lord seems undesirable to you, then choose for yourselves this day whom you will serve, whether the gods your ancestors served beyond the Euphrates, or the gods of the Amorites, in whose land you are living. But as for me and my household, we will serve the Lord.”
· Joshua commanded the Israelites to throw away their idols and to serve the Lord faithfully. What would that look like if we did this today?
· Joshua tells them they HAVE to choose between serving other gods and serving the Lord. They couldn’t do both. We can’t either.
· Is there anything in your life that you have made a “god” or “idol” of? Is there anything that has taken God’s rightful place in your life?
· These things aren’t necessarily bad in and of themselves, (some may be,) but it’s wrong for anything to be placed BEFORE God.
· Joshua issued an ultimatum. “Choose for yourselves this day whom you will serve.” No more trying to do both. No more some of this and some of that…it’s all or nothing.
· “As for me and my household, we will serve the Lord.” Joshua made up his mind that he would serve God whether anyone else chose this or not. Will you?
Friday
1 Peter 5:8-9 8 Be alert and of sober mind. Your enemy the devil prowls around like a roaring lion looking for someone to devour. 9 Resist him, standing firm in the faith, because you know that the family of believers throughout the world is undergoing the same kind of sufferings.
· This week we’ve learned about God as a craftsman, and being God’s craftsmen.
· You need to know that our enemy is crafty as well. He loves to bring us down and will succeed if we aren’t ready for his attacks.
· Know your weaknesses and build up your defenses. Resist him. How can your brothers and sisters help with this? What can we pray for specifically?
· At the end of verse 9, Peter lets us know we aren’t the only ones struggling. You don’t have to go through anything alone. What can you do now to make sure you reach out when you return to your normal routine and schedule when you need help?
