Picture: House (cornerstone to completion)
Scripture: Isaiah 28:16; Isaiah 54:11-14; 1 Corinthians 3:11-16; 1 Peter 2:4-5
Write any phrases from the selected Bible verses that speak to you:
Synonyms for the word “cornerstone” are: centerpiece, mainspring, core, heart. Cornerstone is the main stone that holds the two joining walls of the house together. From this secure place the house is built, brick by brick. Likewise, our spiritual cornerstone is Christ, in which all things stem from Him as we build our lives.
What are practical ways in which you can keep Jesus as the centerpiece of your daily life?
What are some hallmark “bricks” that have been laid in your life, recently or in the past, in
relation to decisions made based on God’s word?
Write a prayer using the above verses as a reference.
...the Lord stirred up the spirit of Cyrus king of Persia... Ezra 1:1
Dear Lord God,
We ask for your supernatural stirring inside our human hearts. Move within the hearts of those who do know you, and also of those who don't. Blow your refreshing wind into us so that we not only long to do your will, but we also commit to the task until it it complete. Move mountains first in us, then through us. In Jesus' Name, Amen.
