For Such A Time As This | DNA [Week 3] | Mark Seagle | Jan. 17, 2021

As a church, and as individuals, we were placed here in this world and season for a purpose. We might never see all the results of our lives fully devoted to Christ, but we are called to live on mission and to befriend faithfulness. As a people after the heart of God, we should find our delight in the Lord, and we will find ourselves faithful to His purposes.

Scripture: Psalm 37:3-5

If you are leading in the middle of this, there is a reason that you are leading in the middle of this. 

1- How is your thinking shifted, when you move from a ‘goal-setting’ faith to becoming a 'person of revelation’?  The psalmist writes that ‘without revelation, people run wild.’ (29.18)  Because God sets the purposes; defines the direction; prepares the way, what is your role  as you trust in the Lord and as you do what is good?  (Psalm 37.3-5)  How will you discover more of His character?

2- We delight in Jesus: He shapes our hearts. Practically, what does it look like to delight in Jesus? Describe God’s heart or His character…as you venture through the Scripture, journal what you see of His heart or His passion. Invite the Spirit of God to form this same heart's delight within you? Let this be an on-going pursuit of the heart of our God. 

3- We are to dwell where God has placed us and to befriend faithfulness. When you look behind you, at the trail of your life, what do you see? Faithfulness is most often seen as you look back. In light of what you see, what do you need to do more? To adjust and do differently? to re-ignite? To stop?  

Trust in the Lord and do what is good; dwell in the land and live securely. Take delight in the Lord, and he will give you your heart’s desires. - Psalms 37:3-5 (CSB)
