Scripture Reading | There’s much more to reading the Bible than merely understanding the words on the page. |
Communion with God is not something a person institutes. It is like sleep you cannot make yourself sleep, you can create the conditions that allow sleep to happen. | Contemplation is more than just silence. It requires a deep reflection, repetition, patience and persistent. | In the epistle of Hebrews, the author uses “we” and “us” 78 times. So many reference s to plurality should inspire a desire for community. (The Book of Hebrews) | Hebrews 10. The body of Christ is in corporate nature. This should inspire togetherness and should inspire us to help each other in following Christ. | “A spiritual friend is someone whom you can explore your deep fears and anxieties without filtering them first.” | I want to strive to be a spiritual friend to those burdened by their troubles that they find it hard to voice their own prayers. |
Prayer Concerns | Lord, help me to read your word and really understand it instead of merely reading the words. |
Lord, assist me to open up to your words and really hear what you are saying to me. |
Lord, I ask you to help me meditate and truly contemplate on your word. |
Lord, please help me to have a sense of community with everyone around me. |
Lord, please help me to inspire others into following Jesus with me. |
Lord, please lead me to a spiritual friend that I can readily confide in. |
Lord, please help me to be a spiritual friend so I can intercede for them. |
Praise and Thanks | Thank you Lord for enabling me to really understand your word. |
Thank you Lord for opening my spiritual ears to really hear your word. | Thank you lord for giving me the ability to truly contemplate on your word. | Thank you Lord for inspiring a sense of community in me. | Lord, I thank you for helping me bring more people to you. | Lord, thank you for giving me a competent spiritual friend. | Thank you Lord, for enabling me to be a sufficient spiritual friend. |
