Questions for Growth Groups and Personal Reflection
Read 2 Samuel 7:1-17
As you read the passage or listened to the sermon, what stood out to you, challenged you or stayed with you?
1. The LORD’s Wisdom (vv.1–5)
Can you think of a time in your own life when you pressed ahead with a plan that seemed good and right, only to realise later that you hadn’t really sought the LORD’s will?
How do you discern whether an idea that seems good and kingdom-shaped is truly from God or just from yourself? (cf. Romans 12:2; James 1:5)
2. The LORD’s Humility (vv.6–7)
How do you respond to the humility of the LORD in these verses — the God who chooses to come close, to walk with His people, to “tent” with them? (cf. John 1:14)
Where do you most need to know the LORD alongside you at the moment — in your hardship, your uncertainty, your weakness?
3. The LORD’s Grace (vv.8–11)
How does God’s gracious promise to David help you think about the ways God has shown grace to you? (cf. Eph 1:3-14)
How are the two connected?
4. The LORD’s Unstoppable Promise (vv.12–16)
How does knowing that neither death, nor sin, nor time can destroy the promise of God encourage you?
Where do you most need the strength of God’s unstoppable promise in your life right now?
Spend some time praying about the above.
