Truth Over Lies: Week 3

Posted on by
“LIES ABOUT YOU” (PART 1) DAY 2

THE LIE: “You Can’t Change”

Read: Hebrews 13:20-21; Philippians 4:13 and SOAP: Hebrews 13:20-21

THE TRUTH: Now may the God of peace who by the blood of the eternal covenant brought back from the dead the great shepherd of the sheep, our Lord Jesus, equip you with every good thing to do his will, working in us what is pleasing before him through Jesus Christ, to whom be glory forever. Amen. Hebrews 13:20-21

In Jesus I Am … A Conqueror

Posted on by
Week 4, Day 5
READ AND SOAP: 1 JOHN 4:4

But you belong to God, my dear children. You have already won a victory over those people, because the Spirit who lives in you is greater than the spirit who lives in the world.

1 John 4:4 NLT

Reflection Questions:

  • How are you empowered to fight against the enemy’s schemes every day?
  • How can you overcome the enemy through the power of Christ?

Through our time together in this study on identity, we have learned that who we are is not about anything we have done, but who God is and what He has done for us.

In Jesus I Am … Empowered

Posted on by

Week 4, Day 4

READ: 1 CORINTHIANS 12:4-11, 2 CORINTHIANS 12:9; SOAP: PHILIPPIANS 4:13

For I can do everything through Christ, who gives me strength.

Philippians 4:13 NLT

Reflection Questions:

  • What does it mean that we are able to do all things through Christ?
  • How can you find peace in your weakness or in difficult circumstances knowing He is always working, even in your weakness?

In God’s kingdom, we are at our strongest when we are weak, and we are our most independent when we are dependent on God. Our verse today does not mean that we should do all things, but that we can find joy as we rely on God to empower and equip us to do the work He calls us to do.
