Psalms 106:1-48. Verse 6, along with gratitude for some aspects of my family heritage, are there other aspects of it that I have needed, or still need, God’s help in putting off? Action point?
Isaiah 47:1-15. God’s wrath upon Babylon and the Chaldeans. What may displease God about the church in America today? What is my church doing about it?
Revelation 15:1-8. Verse 3, how does singing the song of Moses draw me closer to God? How does singing of the Lamb draw me closer still?
Luke 22:54-62. Under pressure of the Enemy, Peter breaks. As things are going in our country now, what kinds of pressure may the Enemy place upon me? How can I keep from breaking?
