Love is the Mission
July 28, 2019 • Nick Griggs
When love becomes our mission we will do what ever it takes to love people well! We will become intentional about our own personal inner healing so that we can begin to see and think with the mind of Christ. We will not be satisfied with anything less! Questions: 1. Read Mark 12:30-31 - How much of your day do you spend intentionally loving and showing Jesus affection? 2. Read 1 Corinthians 3:16-17 - How does knowing that His spirit is alive within you make it easier to connect with Him on a conscious level? 3. Read John 8:42-44 - Take a minute and ask Jesus in prayer to reveal a foundational lie to you that you have either believed about God, people or yourself. Do not rush. Share your answer. 4. Read John 8:31-32 - Take a minute in prayer and ask Jesus to reveal the truth about the lie you believed. Do not rush. Share your answers. 5. Read John 14:26 and 1st John 5:14-15 - After being intentional and going through this process with Jesus, how do you feel? Are you willing to make this a daily practice in your life?
You talking to me?

Our thoughts and words have the potential for good and bad, victory and defeat, good days and bad days. You choose! Questions: 1. Read Philippians 4:8. What advice does Paul give in this passage? In hard times, what would it look like to set your mind on things above? Is it possible to be in control of our thoughts? 2. Read Philippians 4:8. How does what we think on, affect the conversations we have with ourselves and others? 3. Think about a time when you have been in a bad mood. What put you in that state? What ultimately lifted you out of it? 4. Read James 3:-5 & Proverbs 18:21. What key point is James driving home through his multiple illustrations? Do you believe you can actually change the way you feel by changing the words you speak? If so, give an example. 5. Do you believe that the thoughts we think, and the words we speak can become self-fulfilling prophecies? Why or Why Not?
