In Between Conversations - Sessions 1 & 2

OK...

Just a few thoughts...

I may need to talk to y'all between now and June 4... I may need to ask a question... I may need to tell someone who is doing the same study something that the Lord told me or showed me...I just may need to comment on something that jumped off the page at me during my 2 weeks of homework!!!!

 I may not be able to wait 2 weeks or I may bust!!!!

So here is the deal!!!

If while you are doing your homework you need to talk to someone, comment here under this post!!! This is where we can dialogue in between our Thursdays. 

Does that make sense???? Hope so!

Also, I pray that you will remember why we are doing this study this summer..... I pray that you will seek the Lord throughout these upcoming weeks and listen for His voice in the areas that He will work through.

Please remember that condemnation is not of the Lord and definitely not from the Lord. The Lord brings conviction and the power and comfort to change. Condemnation is from the enemy, guilt is from the enemy!!!

 

"Therefore, there is now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus, because through Christ Jesus the law of the Spirit of life set me free from the law of sin and death."

Romans 8:1-2

 

We all have idols in our lives! That is why God is going to use this study to show us things in our lives that we may not have ever realized before that need to change! I pray that together with the Holy Spirit's help, that we can uplift, edify, bless, and encourage one another through this study, and rejoice together over the work that He is going to do.

I'm tellin' ya, I know it's going to bring life change to us all!!!

Dive In!

Surrender!

Listen!

Oh yes, and don't forget to blog!!! :)

Love to you all!

Looking forward to hearing from you!

Our First Gathering!!!!

Howdy Ladies!!!!

Today is the day!

So here is what you need to do!

Please share in your small groups and on this blog what you perceive to be your biggest challenge toward walking victoriously with God this summer. House full of children? Heavy work load? Difficult season emotionally? Just had your heart broken? Just feel far from God? Whatever it may be, share it with this group so that we can be praying for you throughout the summer and this study. For those of you meeting together, please don't forget to blog your challenges as well so that if anyone is doing this alone, will still feel connected to this group! Thanks!

Turn to Jude 1:24,25 and read your summer Bible study memory verse-segment. (Oh, yes, you can memorize!!! You just have to learn how to make fun associations that make it memorable!) This is our only memory segment all summer so it’s very doable.

And then lastly, by June 4th, have 2 sessions of homework finished!
Session 1 - Personal Pharaohs
Session 2 - Why Idols?

This blogging thing will only work, IF Y'ALL COMMENT!!!!! :) 

I'm so proud of everyone who has committed to this for the summer! We want victory all year long and I know that God has big things to show us these days of summer! I love every single one of you with Christ's love!

Study away!!! And then check back later!
