The Vineyard- January 12, 2014

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

John 10:1-21
Pray for God to speak to you through the reading of His word. 
Read the passage. 
-          The Good Shepherd
o   Jesus says that his sheep recognize, and follow, his voice.  Are you following the voice of Jesus?
o   Jesus laid his life down for us because he owns us, we are his.  What does it mean to you to know that Jesus values you that much?
-          The Gate
o   As the gate, Jesus is the only way we can come to God.  Do you sometimes try to come to God through your own power, holiness, or good deeds?
-          I AM
o   Jesus makes a bold statement, in identifying himself with God.  Do you fully appreciate the majesty and beauty of who Jesus is?
-          Jesus and the Church
o   Our security, as individuals and as a church, is tied to our proximity to Jesus, our Good Shepherd. 
How might we as individuals and as a church more closely identify with Jesus, ouPray that God might empower us to follow the voice of Jesus. 

Pray that our church might deepen its identity in Jesus Christ our Lord.
