The Vineyard- July 19, 2015

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

II Corinthians 4:1-6
Pray for God to speak to you through the reading of His word. 
Read the passage. 
-          The Importance of “How”
o   We often get so caught up in what we are doing, that we forget that how we do it is extremely important.  We can represent the truth of who God is, but if we do so in a way that fails to demonstrate love, our efforts will be frustrated.  How might you better go about presenting God’s truth?
-          Setting the Agenda
o   When we allow Satan to veil us to the truth about Christ, we allow him to set the agenda for our live.  How might we better ensure that the light of Christ is allowed to shine in our hearts and our minds?
-          Experiencing God
o   The glory of God is experienced in Christ, both as he hung on the cross out of love, and rose from the grave in triumph.  How can we create more opportunities for us to experience God in Christ? 
Pray for the patience and wisdom to present the gospel in its simplicity, beauty, and love.    
Pray that the agenda for our lives will be set by the light of Christ, rather than the deceptions of Satan. 
Praise God for the ability to experience Him through Christ.
