June 2, 2022 Who Has The Answer?

 



READ

Read Isaiah 55:8–9. Consider all of the reasons why it is beneficial to have a God who is much more wise, considerate, and selfless than you. Take a moment to thank him for his wisdom displayed in your life.

Isaiah 55:8-9 (CSB)

8“For my thoughts are not your thoughts,

and your ways are not my ways.”

This is the Lord’s declaration.

9“For as heaven is higher than earth,

so my ways are higher than your ways,

and my thoughts than your thoughts.


Today's 4-min RightNowMedia video explores how the world is full of opinions, perspectives on how to live, and various definitions of truth.

Francis Chan Finding Truth Devo-1


1. After listening to Francis, how did this session expand your understanding of why God’s truth is so important?

2. Francis explained in the video that God is our anchor when we’ve been lied to by the world over and over again. When we become frustrated—not knowing whom to believe—we can run to our Bible and find peace in what it says. What are some of your favorite truths found in the Bible? How do these truths make you feel when you’re confused or looking for answers?

3. Francis explained the dilemma of trying to understand God and the ways of the world with our finite minds by discussing Isaiah 55:8–9. These verses tell us that God’s thoughts and ways are much higher than ours. In what ways is it comforting to you to know God’s thoughts are much higher, bigger, and more truthful than yours?

4. Re-read Isaiah 55:8–9. What kinds of situations have you been in where you’ve appreciated God’s ultimate wisdom?

5. When we look to the Bible, we will see that God has a way for us to live that not only enhances our lives but enhances the lives of those around us as well. How would you describe the way God’s truth has enhanced your life? How do you hope it enhances your future plans?

RESPOND

The word Truth is a bit of a buzzword these days. Everyone wants to know the Truth, and they’re willing to find it in any capacity, shape, or form. But we know that the Word of God holds the real Truth about us and the world.

March 17, 2022 Our Father...

Happy St. Patrick's Day!  Are you wearing green today to avoid being pinched by leprechauns and other fairy creatures?  Or do you cling onto Psalm 84:11 today and everyday? Last week, our homework was to pick a Scripture verse to memorize.  Would you like to share your verse with the group?   Today, our study is on the first phrase of The Lord's Prayer. " Our Father in heaven , hallowed be your name, your kingdom come, your will be done, on earth as it is in heaven. Give us today our daily bread. And forgive us our debts, as we also have forgiven our debtors. And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from the evil one." Matthew 6:9=13 For centuries, believers have memorized and used the Lord's prayer as a tool for going to God in prayer. It was given by Jesus in response to his disciple's request for a lesson in prayer. It continues to be a lesson for us as well. Here is today's video lesson  Our Father Questions for Reflection 1.
