Lift Up Your Head
DISCUSS & ENGAGE THE SCRIPTURES
- Read 1 Kings 8:58 and 2 Corinthians 3:18 NKJV. We know our hearts are turned toward God when we are walking in His ways. As you live your daily life, where are you walking in His ways and where are you not?
- Read Genesis 28:16-17. We tend to control any area of life where we don’t believe God is in it. What is God showing you about the areas of your life that you attempt to control the most?
- We can’t wake ourselves up, but we can put ourselves back to sleep. What is God showing you through the six ways we can awaken to Him?
- Creation (Romans 1:9-20)
- People (Acts 9:17-18)
- Signs & Wonders (Acts 2:19)
- God’s Word (John 5:39-40)
- Holy Spirit (John 16:8)
- Jesus (John 12:32)
- Read Joel 2:12-13 and Matthew 6:16-18. Fasting is an invitation to partner with God as a normal part of following Jesus.
- If you’ve decided to fast and pray, what’s your plan?
- If you’ve decided not to, what is God revealing to you about your heart?
PRAY
By faith, turn our hearts toward You, God, in every way.
