The Vineyard- September 28, 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

Genesis 27:46-28:22
Pray that God will speak to you through the reading of His word.
-          Finding Faith on the Journey
o   Jacob has left his home and is still far from his destination of Paddan-Aram, when he encounters God.  What unexpected places have you encountered God?  
-          God’s Promises
o   God makes definite promises to Jacob.  He will be with Jacob, keep Jacob, and return Jacob to the land.  God promises to be our shepherd as well.  How have you experienced God’s presence and protection in your life? 
-          The House of God
o   Jacob names the place where he encounters God Bethel, or “house of God.”  In the New Testament, we learn that in Jesus the fullness of deity was pleased to dwell.  How have you experienced God through Jesus Christ?
Pray that our eyes will be open to experiencing God in unexpected places. 
Praise God for being our shepherd. 
Thank God for allowing us to experience Him through Jesus Christ.
