Memory Verse for the Week: Galatians 1:10-12 (ESV)

For am I now seeking the approval of man, or of God? Or am I trying to please man? If I were still trying to please man, I would not be a servant of Christ. For I would have you know, brothers, that the gospel that was preached by me is not man’s gospel. For I did not receive it from any man, nor was I taught it, but I received it through a revelation of Jesus Christ.

INTRO: How would you rate your own personal sense of purpose or calling?

RESOURCED AND PURPOSEFUL
How has the LORD designed us to be sourced?

DRIVEN OR ASHAMED
What happens when we base our justification upon our sanctification?

A MIRACULOUS PILGRIM
What is powerful enough to re-order your identity, relationships, and work?

YOU CAN PRAY WITH US …

1. Worship the LORD for how He does only what is in our best interest as God, most-wise. Praise Him that He is holy, and He is wholly good and understands our needs from His infinite and eternal perspective.

2. While God built us to be infinitely resourced from Him and to have a clear purpose to love others, how have you lived as if God deprives you and His commands are a burden? Confess your pride to Jesus, asking Him to forgive you and change your heart.

3. Give thanks to Jesus for bearing the cost of our sinfulness and for giving us His Spirit within us to produce real conversion. Thank Him for His work to not only remove our guilt but also to give us new hearts.

4. Who do you know that needs to experience renewal in their heart? Pray for them, asking the Lord to break through the hardness of their heart to help them see the insufficiency of human efforts to change their nature.

5. Ask the Holy Spirit to transform your desires and actions. Pray for Him“to work in you both to will and to do His good pleasure” (Philippians 2:13) especially as you pursue Him in His Word, in prayer, and with His people.
