The Vineyard
I am the vine; you are the
branches. Whoever abides in me and I in him, he it is that bears much fruit,
for apart from me you can do nothing. – John 15:5
Genesis 13:1-18
Pray for God to speak to you through
the reading of His word.
Read the passage.
-
Beginning with worship
o
Abraham gets his life back on track
when he returns to the altar, and renews his worship of Yahweh.
o
Do you place importance on beginning
your week with worship?
o
How do you begin each day with God?
-
Faith in poverty and prosperity
o
Society would have us believe that
prosperity solves all of our problems.
However, with “more stuff” can come more problems, or at least different
ones.
o
How do we ensure our focus stays on
God, whether we are struggling to have enough, or struggling because we have
too much?
-
People over possessions
o
Abraham demonstrates that people are
more important than possessions, when he gives the best part of the Promised
Land to Lot.
o
Would you be willing to part with
possessions if it brought peace to your relationships with others?
Pray that worship will set the tone
for our lives.
Pray that we will have faith in the
good times and the bad.
Pray that we will value other people
more than our possessions.
