Bible Sunday 8/9: Drink This

Studying this morning's readings from the St. James Daily Devotional Guide (click to subscribe), I examined myself with these questions. Where is your self-examination leading today?

Psalms 95:1-11. What’s the difference between being as one of God’s sheep and having a hard heart toward him? What’s an example of each behavior on my part in the last day or two?

I Kings 22:1-53. Ahab claims to want to hear from God, but punishes the prophet when he doesn’t like what he hears. When have I done this, ignoring the message and shooting the messenger? Don’t I often try to use God instead of letting him use me?

Acts 26:1-11. Verses 6-8, what hope and what promise has God given his people, which I now seek to claim? How is it going so far? Do I live each day in gratitude and trust for our God who has conquered death?

Mark 14:22-31. What does the Lord’s Supper, the bread becoming Jesus’ flesh, the wine his blood, mean to me in my everyday life?
