Write any phrases from the selected Bible verses that speak to you:
Visualize for a minute a house either being built or remolded. With this picture in mind, a message of hope comes to us. Not only do we have a Builder, we also have a Rebuilder. Sometimes the chaos of sin or circumstance enters and reeks havoc in our lives; BUT, no mess is too big for our Savior. He can redeem anything, causing all things to be even more beautiful than before.
Is there something that God has placed on your heart “to build” that is based on His foundational truths?
Is there a time in your life that you have experienced “beauty from ashes” due to God’s redeeming love? Explain.
Write a prayer using the above verses as a reference.
Worthy is the Lamb that was slain to receive power and riches and wisdom and might and glory and honor and blessing. - Rev. 5:12
Dear Lord,
Today remind us of your majesty so that we will then be in awe of your mercy. You, King of kings, marched to the cross. How can this be? Thank you for your willingness to pay the price for our sins. May we now live for you in humbled gratitude. In Jesus' Name, Amen.
