Family/Group Study Notes for February 7, 2021
Series: Beyond; Title: Beyond Weekly Worship
 

 
Share in your group/family what worship means to you. How is worship both individual and communal? What is the power in each?
 
How does worship change your priorities? How does worship of God change your worship of other things?
 
Read Exodus 20:3-8. What does this passage mean to you? What does this say about worship? What is the command? What is the promise?
 
Read Hebrews 13:15-16. From this passage what are the key elements of worship? How are you living this worship through your life?
 
Read Psalm 23:5. What does God want us to know and feel in this passage? What does it say about God and our enemies?
 
Read 2 Chronicles 20: 5-22. How is this passage highlighting the power of worship? How can a life of worship put God in position to fight your battles? Why is it we worship on Sunday and fight our own battles during the week? How can that change?
 
Read Psalm 16. How is David, the writer of this Psalm, describing worship? How is worship setting God always before you? What disciplines can you make in your life to live this way?
 
Gather in smaller groups and listen to each other’s prayer requests and then pray.
