WEEK 41 – “Kindness, more than just on the outside”
Most people are fairly KIND. But that’s just on the outside. On the inside we are rude, self-seeking, self-serving, insulting, judgmental, demeaning, cutting, harsh, demanding, and down right murderous.
There is a lot that the enemy uses in our lives to come against us walking in the KINDNESS that Jesus wants for us.
Our KINDNESS towards others in our thoughts, reactions, motives, even in our KINDNESS towards ourselves.
Even though He could, Jesus doesn’t demand that we do things His way, Scripture says that it’s His KINDNESS that leads us to repentance.
Let’s chat about how to overcome all that stuff in this video, and finally start walking in the KINDNESS Jesus has for us & that represents Him.
QUESTIONS TO ASK YOURSELF (or your groups)
- What are some of the things in your life SPECIFICALLY that come against your KINDNESS?
- What is your biggest struggle area when it comes to KINDNESS?
- Have you ever experienced the KINDNESS of the LORD come over you in a circumstance where you would normally be UNKIND? What was that like?
SCRIPTURE
Galatians 5:22-23 / Ephesians 4:32 / Luke 6:35 / Proverbs 11:17 / Colossians 3:12 / Proverbs 31:26 / 1 Corinthians 13:4
WEEKLY FOCUS
This week, read through these Scriptures each morning.
Think about this idea of INCREASING IN THE FRUIT OF THE SPIRIT OF KINDNESS.
Ask God if there are any areas you need to surrender or change in order to WALK IN HIS KINDNESS.
Let this theme guide your God time all week, and even your thoughts and conversation with Him through out your days, all week long.
Let Him speak to you about this idea of GROWING IN YOUR KINDNESS, and see what He says.
We’d love to hear your feedback, so hop into the devos conversation thread in SLACK & we’re excited to see what the Lord speaks to you this week.
BLESSINGS!
