NOVEMBER 2011
celloutlines | week two (continued...) Saul transformed from being someone who literally committed murder to one of the most dynamic and passionate early missionaries. What does this tell us about our past mistakes and feelings that God can never use us when we’ve messed up in some way? (Look up 2 Corinthians 5:17)
Worship It is possible that there are obvious points for prayer that have arisen from your discussion. If so please feel free to proceed in a time of prayer however you wish to….or you may have already interspersed your discussion above with prayers for each other. If not you could use the following ideas: 1. David was asked how he would like his story to inspire others. “To put it simply, I pray that others would know that he does answer prayer; that if you truly search for him you will find him, and he will reveal himself to you.” Write out the promises that David heard God speak to him. ‘You are loved.’ ‘You are my child.’ ‘I know the plans I have for you, trust in me.’ ‘I will be there for you, every step of the way.’ Ask each person to consider which of those promises they need to hear and believe most in their lives at the moment. Then either in pairs, or one at a time in the whole group, pray for each other and ask God to make that real in that persons life. 2. Spend some time saying sorry to God for the times when you have just gone through the motions, pretended you were into church, did things that other people expected of you, without really honouring, serving or worshipping God.
