Picture: House (Builder/Architect)
Scripture: Psalm 127:1; 1 Chronicles 28:11-12, 19; Jeremiah 29:11-13; Hebrews 3:1-6; 11:8-10
Write any phrases from the selected Bible verses that speak to you:
Close your eyes and visualize the detailed architectural plans of a residential home. Much like these plans, God has laid out every detail of our lives, start to finish. Just as God spoke to King David in regards to the physical temple that was to be built, He speaks to us through His word concerning our daily plans.
Do you consider your Builder trustworthy or do you have plans of your own? Explain.
What are some specific life plans that God has revealed to you as you have trusted in His word?
Write a prayer using the above verses as a reference:
O house of Israel, trust in the Lord--he is their help and their shield. O house of Aaron, trust in the Lord--he is their help and their shield. You who fear him, trust in the Lord--he is their help and their shield. Psalm 115: 9-11
Dear Lord,
You implore us to trust you. Give us both the desire and ability to do so. We so badly want to do things our own way at times. May we say in full confidence that you alone are our help and shield. Amen.
