Key Theme:
The enemy is trying to subtly tempt the church, corporately and individually, to compromise, fall asleep, and become useless.
Key Application:
Be watchful for these temptations in your life falling prey to them will lead to unhealthy and dangerous spiritual places.
Key Verse:
Jeremiah 17:9-10 “The heart is deceitful above all things, and desperately sick; who can understand it? “I the LORD search the heart and test the mind, to give every man according to his ways, according to the fruit of his deeds.”
Key Questions:
1. Where do you see Jezebel-ness sneaking in to your life or the life of the broader church?
2. How does the subtle whisper of the enemy saying “shhhh its ok don’t get in the battle this or that isn’t a big deal” come to you?
3. “If you want to be with Jesus, sit with the suffering, that’s where Jesus it.” Consider this quote by Dr. Jeff Meyers how does it challenge you?
