God’s Truth for Trying Times - 11/7/21

We need God’s truth in trying times. Read the Scripture passage, think about what it is saying, then pray; by yourself or with your household. Let the Word of Christ dwell in you richly (Col. 3:16).

READ: 2 John 1:12-13

“Though I have much to write to you, I would rather not use paper and ink. Instead I hope to come to you and talk face to face, so that our joy may be complete. The children of your elect sister greet you.”
‭‭2 John‬ ‭1:12-13‬ ‭ESV‬‬

CONSIDER: Nothing beats being face-to-face with fellow believers so that they can encourage one another and experience the joy that they share in Christ. A kind greeting from fellow believers is one of the greatest encouragements.

THINK: What does this declare about God? What are God’s people being called to do? What assurance is given? How does the Word of God transform our hearts and lives and relationships?

PRAY: Pray these verses to God as a prayer. Pour out your heart in praise to God. Pray for others. Present needs to Him.
