Digging Deeper

Do you love that we get to grow deeper in our faith?  That we serve a living God.  That God loves us and pursues us.  Let’s take today and dig deeper into God’s word.  

Grab different versions of the Bible.  Grab a commentary. Now let’s look up some Scripture’s.

Read Isaiah 26:3

Who has peace?  What kind of peace is it?

Where/ who does it come from?  Who does our minds stay on?  Who is the source?  Who trusts in you?

Isaiah 66:12

May want to read verses 10-14!

Who do we rejoice with and why?  What is the future blessing calls for?  What kind of image is this?  Who do we find comfort in?  Cross reference – Isaiah 40:1, 48:18 and 59:11

Mark 4:39 -40

What does Jesus display? who does Jesus chide? Why? What is the antidote to fear?  What was there question about Jesus?

mark 5:31- 34

Why did she touch Jesus garment? How did she respond?  Where can fear lead to?  What did the woman deeply feel after her healing?  Does the woman feel welcomed before her healing?  What about after her healing?  What healed her?

john 14:27

what did Jesus leave for us?  What did he give to us?  What kind of relationship do we have to have with Hod to ha e his peace?

john 16:33

What things did Jesus tell his disciples? What do we have in Jesus?  Does this mean life will be easy?  Will we have tribulation in our own life?

Now take the next few verses. Read them and. Ask question about the verses using the 5 W’s and H questions. Pray and seek what God would like to show you.
