WEEK 4: Matthew 16 – 20

READING PLAN

 

OVERVIEW

Not everyone is going to be open or happy to initially hear about the good news of God’s love for them in Jesus, some will even become a little hostile about being spoken to about it. Nevertheless, Jesus declares that the enemy’s kingdom will not be able to hold out ultimately against the good news of God’s kingdom of love.

ATTENTION: 

Read or listen to the Scripture. 

What word, phrase or verse captures your attention? 

CONNECT: 

What connections do you see to other scriptures?

ACTION: 

What is God inviting you to say or do?

PRAY: 

Talk to God about what you just read and discovered or anything else on your heart.

Pray that our enemies will have their eyes and hearts opened to the good news of Jesus.
