When was a time you didn’t take someone’s good advice? How did the situation turn out?
Scripture: Read Judges 1:1 and Judges 21:25 NLT
Observation:
- What stands out to you when you hear how Judges begins versus how it ends?
- What do you think contributed to the shift?
- How do you think God felt during this time in the life of the nation of Israel?
Application:
- What do you think it means practically to “do what seems right in your own eyes”?
- Where do you most feel the pull toward “You do you” thinking in your own life?
- Decisions?
- Relationships?
- Time?
- Faith practices?
Mark 2:18-22 describes Jesus, who came to bring about something NEW. As you consider the year ahead, what might God want to do NEW in your life?
Prayer:
- Ask God to reveal one area where you’ve been doing what seems right in your own eyes
- Ask Jesus, our King, to give you insight into the New He wants to invite you into this year.
