Sabbath, Study, Serve Taking the Sermon Into Our Week Scripture of the Week: 2 Samuel 7:1-17 From the Sermon: The prophet Isaiah once said that God’s _______________________ and God’s ___________________________. Are you the one to build ______________________________? What it boils down to is that _______ of the Lord is not like our and God is not captive to our _____________________. God didn’t stop with simply saying that he did not desire a house; God went on to say that he would form _________________________. God’s presence cannot be ________________________. This was an __________ covenant with ___________ ramifications. _______________ — the grace and love that came before. Reflection Questions: What are some ways that we try to out-pace God? Has there ever been something that you really wanted to do to honor God, only to have it fail spectacularly? Are we living as people of the promise? What is lost today if we insist on our own plans instead of God’s? Prayer: Lord, for the times we have acted as if we knew better than you, forgive us. For the times we have acted so quickly that we failed to seek first your desires, forgive us. For the times we have failed to speak of you and your Kingdom, forgive we, we pray. Amen.
