Good Morning!
Let’s focus our day by spending some time with Jesus before it begins.
THANK. Write down 3-5 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.
READ. Our Scripture Focus is 2 Timothy 3:16-17. Try memorizing it during this study!
Today’s reading is from 2 Timothy 3:14-17 & 2 Timothy 4:1-4 (Go Deeper: Isaiah 40:6-8 & John 17:17-26)
THINK. A Thought from Pastor Dave…
Do you collect anything? A collection is something that is usually kept, perhaps looked at, but not really used. Too often Christians collect teaching and knowledge without using it. We go to church, hear a message, listen to a podcast, watch a YouTube or TikTok video, read a Christian book, go to our Bible study, and perhaps even read our Daily Focus… but do we use all that knowledge? Most of us are educated far beyond our level of obedience. The Bible says this about itself - “all scripture is from God and useful…” So use it today! How can we use God’s Word? There’s benefit and blessing in teaching it, correcting and calling out things that are contrary to it, training ourselves and others to live rightly, and encouraging others patiently. Take a moment to ask God how He might have you use His Word today. Scripture is God-breathed and true. When we memorize it, we carry the good news of Jesus with us wherever we go. Try memorizing the Scripture Focus today if you haven’t already!
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?
PRAY. Pray for yourself, a family member, a lifegroup/church friend, someone who doesn’t know Jesus, and the nations. Pick one each day or pray through them all every day.
CONNECT. Have a question, prayer request, or story? Let us know here or reply via text.
SHARE. Invite a friend to read the Focus with you! Just text “FOCUS” to (586) 200-6277.

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