WATCH VIDEO (6 MIN):

GUIDANCE COMES FROM BEHIND

READING ASSIGNMENTS:

GENESIS 35:1-15

EXODUS 16:1-3

LUKE 24:13-35

DISCUSSION QUESTIONS

  1. In Genesis 35, Jacob goes back to the place where God met him. Where would that be for you? Bethel means "House of God". How have you experienced God’s presence in the church?

  3. In Exodus 16, the Israelites skipped over the memory of God parting the Red Sea and remembered something that may not even be true back in Egypt. Does the stress of your current circumstances ever affect your memory of God's faithfulness? How does the story of the Israelites speak to you?

  5. The Road to Emmaus in Luke 24 shows that sometimes we have more clarity when we look back on something because time gives us new insight. Has that ever happened to you? Have you ever been able to see something God did that you couldn’t see while it was happening?

CONCLUSION

When we remember what God has done, we have the confidence to face what's ahead.

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.
