DAY 5 OF 5

Practice the Pattern

So as we finish this week’s study, consider how you can preach or counsel your heart with these truths of who God is and what He’s done for us, right in the midst of your current circumstance in these areas.

I am filled.

God satisfies me with truth and grace.

1. In what current circumstance do you feel weary and lacking strength?

2. Preach it to yourself:

Because grace is mine through Jesus (Col. 1:6), and He is the substance of true knowledge (vv. 9-10) and hope (v. 14), I don’t need to be filled up with any other counterfeit in my life.

3. In a journal, practice writing your own.

I have an inheritance.

God has eternal treasure and hope for me.

1. In what current circumstance do you think you’re lacking all you need?

2. Preach it to yourself:

Because of Jesus, I’m given an inheritance that will not fade, can’t be lost, and isn’t dependent on impressing everyone around me. I don’t need to put my hope in what I can achieve, acquire, or produce today (v. 12).

3. In a journal, practice writing your own.

About this Plan

TruthFilled

“Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly” (Col. 3:16a). Join Ruth Chou Simons in this study of the Book of Colossians as she leads us through a practice of preaching gospel truth to ourselves by studying Paul’s example. In every changing season of life, we can rest in God’s character, rehearse our identity in Christ, respond in faith, and remember God’s provision for us.
