Good Morning!
Let’s focus our day by spending some time with Jesus before it begins.

THANK.
Write down 5 things you’re thankful for in the last 24 hours.
WORSHIP. Pick a song from one of our Spotify Playlists and let it play in the background.
PRAY. Pray for yourself, a family member, a friend, someone who doesn’t know Jesus, and the nations.
READ. Today’s scripture reading is from Acts 1:8
THINK. A Thought from Pastor Dave…
Paradox Church is part of a larger movement of churches throughout the world called Antioch (learn more at antioch.org) We’re taking 22 Days to pray together for 2022. Today’s prayer is from Pastor Andrew Znachko at Antioch Indianapolis. https://www.instagram.com/tv/CYkAQd9IpIu/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link

Willpower. We generally think of it as something that comes from within that drives us to accomplish things that are beyond our current ability. We can feel overwhelmed and exhausted trying to summon it, and defeated and hopeless when it runs out. But that promise of God - you will receive power - flips the idea upside down. Today, take your plans and goals for the upcoming year and give them to God. Ask what He is calling you to do. His plans are greater than the plans we have for ourselves and can often feel scary, if not downright impossible. But the beauty of God’s call is this - you don’t have to have the power to do it. When you ask Him, Holy Spirit WILL give you POWER to accomplish God’s purposes in your life. That’s WILL power!

Worship - Join us for a night of worship and prayer to close the 22 days with the House of Prayer on Thursday, February 3 at 6pm at Paradox Church in Warren.

LIVE. One practical way to understand and apply the Bible is the SOS method. Ask…
S: What does this passage say about God, and what does it say about me?
O: What am I being invited to obey?
S: What can I share with those around me?
CONNECT. Have a question, prayer request, thought, or story? Let us know at paradoxchurch.com/connect

Run the race with endurance today, and stay focused on Jesus.
Make it a Great One!
