Bible Saturday 9/4: Under Authority

Psalms 16:1-11. Verse 7 KJV, in what particular way do I need God’s counsel and instruction today?

Judges 2:1-23. Verses 10-12, generational ignorance of God. Why has this become a worsening trend in America today? What are the consequences? What is my church doing about it?

II Corinthians 4:1-15. Verse 7, in what way am I a flawed and fragile for the gospel? How does that serve God’s purpose?

Luke 7:1-10. What one thing would I most desire to have done for me by Jesus’ authority today?
