Friday's Bit of Discipleship

“To combine conviction with humility... will require the greatest dependence on the grace of God. Our first mistake is often to be overconfident and to think we can handle this issue on our own. The enemy laughs.”
p.130, The Prideful Soul’s Guide to Humility, Fontenot/Jones

Discipleship Point about regular time with God in His Word

Being in God’s Word lets the Holy Spirit disciple (teach) us directly. This includes time alone for prayer and reflection to hear from and yield to the Holy Spirit. (SCOPE2). It also involves time with God and others in His Word like in worship and small group, other great ways to be discipled both directly and indirectly by the Holy Spirit.

Have you carved out time to let God’s Word and Spirit disciple you? To gather with others, there is Sunday worship and a discipleship hour after. There are Group gatherings as well throughout the week, but don’t forget to carve out time just between you and God, even if it is late at night like Nicodemus (tomorrow’s story).
