Today's Reading:
1 Peter 3-4
GOOD FRIDAY: It's all about JESUS!
"He was despised and rejected by men, a man of sorrows, and familiar with suffering. Like one from whom men hide their faces he was despised, and we esteemed him not. Surely he took up our infirmaties and carried our sorrows, yet we considered him stricken by God, smitten by him, and afflicted. But he was pierced for our transgressions, he was crushed for our iniquities; the punishment that brought us peace was upon him, and by his wounds we are healed." From the prophet Isaiah (53:4-5). Written approx. 680 years before this propechy of Christ was fulfilled.

"It was now about the sixth hour, and darkness came over the whole land until the ninth hour, for the sun stopped shining. And the curtain of the temple was torn in two. Jesus called out with a loud voice, 'Father, into your hands I commit my spirit.' When he said this, he breathed his last. " Luke 23:44-46
"Let us then approach the throne of grace with confidence, so that we may receive mercy and find grace to help us in our time of need." Hebrews 4:16

Living for Eternity
Today's Reading:
2 Peter 1-3
In today's reading we are reminded of how temporal our lives on this earth are and that as Peter writes, "But the day of the Lord will come like a thief" (3:10). In Peter's 2nd letter I see a strong emphasis placed on the importance of growing in our knowledge of God's word and our faith as followers of Jesus Christ (1:3, 5, 6, 8, 10, 12; 3:1, 16). One of the best ways to do this is to be continually growing in our understanding of who God is through His word. There are many honest and sincere believers in churches all over this country who follow men and women who teach false doctrines. Some of these teacher/leaders are well known and have large, growing ministries. But they are in error (2:3). There have even been times when I have sat in small groups where the leader was teaching Scripture in error. This is a dangerous practice. God has placed you in a powerfully unique position to teach others truth...for them. So that they may become mature and stable in their walk with God. Persevere in your study of God's word and you will be used of God greatly in the lives of others. The best thing that we can leave behind us in this temporal world are the seeds of truth and love that we have sown into the lives of others. The Lord promises a great reward for those who persevere in this type of ministry.
PrayerPoint:
Pray for another small group leader today.
