PSALM 139:7-12 God loves us enough to save us from sin’s separation (Genesis 3:22-24). What would have happened if they had eaten from the tree of life? When they were separated by sin, who looked for them? (Genesis 3:9) God can be with us wherever we are (Psalm 139:7-12). How well does God know you?…
ROMANS 8:31-39 What should be our response to God’s choosing (v.31a)? When we read verses 28-30, ‘what will we say in response?’ Why should the knowledge of God’s choice help to increase our assurance? “If God is for us, who can be against us?” (v.31b) What assurance do you receive from knowing that God is…
I CORINTHIANS 6:12-20 Because the body is for the Lord, we should choose no other master (v.12-13). How is Paul using their own words to teach them? What will protect you from being mastered?

II SAMUEL 11 We have a hard time finding sin in David’s life before Bathsheba (11:1-15). How did the years of faithful obedience protect David from sin? How do our years of faithful obedience protect us from sin? What do we need to do when we have sinned (12:13). We have a hard time finding…
I SAMUEL 17 Satan uses intimidation because it doesn’t require anything of him (v.4-11). What response should believers have to giant problems?

What power does intimidation have with a…
HEBREWS 12:16-17 We are not to be immoral like Esau (v.16). When we go back to Genesis, what do we find immoral about Esau? What was it about the illustration given that is still immoral?
