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.
MEMORIZE. Our Scripture Focus for this study is Exodus 15:1-3. Scripture is God-breathed and true. When we memorize it, we carry God’s Word with us wherever we go.
READ. Today’s reading is Exodus 25 & Exodus 26:1-14. (Go Deeper: Genesis 3:24, Hebrews 9:6-14)

THINK. A Thought from Pastor Mike…
I don’t watch reality TV, but I am sure there is some home show I could reference right now to best describe God’s behavior. He lays out for Moses an elaborate plan for constructing and decorating a home for himself. Among the important features are that it be portable and beautiful. Portable because God intends to lead the Israelites forward and he wants to be with them wherever they go. Beautiful because he wants his place among them to be prominent and special. Since God is the same “yesterday as today”, I believe it’s safe to assume he still wants those things. Do you carry God with you in your daily travels, or for you does he live in a permanent structure that you only visit on Sunday? Does he hold a special place in your life, or have you built tabernacles for other gods?
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!
