Our Refuge
The basic premise of the series World Changers is that many of us struggle at times with feeling qualified for the call that God places on our lives, and that’s if we even believe God would call us! We feel unqualified to witness about God because we don’t have all the Bible answers, or we don’t live a perfect life. When God calls us to do specific things, we often see all the ways this seems impossible.
The truth is that this has been a tension throughout the entire Bible. Almost every person was uniquely unqualified for what God called them to do. Being qualified was never a prerequisite for being used by God. There’s only one thing that mattered to Him; are you willing? Those who were willing were used by God, and it not only changed their lives, it changed the world around them.
Each Wednesday, you will receive a scripture to read, a series of reflection questions, and a link to a worship song. Take time to read or listen through the scripture and note any key points that stick out to you. This is often how God speaks to us, so pay close attention and listen for those moments that make you excited, scared, convicted, or encouraged. The reflection questions supplied will guide you into a time of thinking about how and why it is important to seek God’s presence in our lives. And then finally there will be a link to a YouTube video with worship music. This is supplied to create time to pray and seek God. You can use your own music or sit in silence but be sure to close your time by asking God to draw near to you.
Psalm 5:11 (CSB)
But let all who take refuge in you rejoice;
let them shout for joy forever.
May you shelter them,
and may those who love your name boast about you.
Reflection
Go for a walk outside and spend time praising the Creator. Can you think of a time God protected you? How could you boast about God’s provision in your life to others?
