Opening Prayer: Almighty God, grant me the wisdom and strength to be in Your presence this week, as I face the challenges and opportunities that come my way. Amen.

Read: Galatians 6

Reflect: In this closing chapter Paul seems to make a slight change in direction, he seems to be talking to both sides of the circumcision issue, whereas up to this point he appears to only have spoken to one side. Why does Paul speak to both sides in this last chapter? Does this change the tone of the letter in any way? How does Paul encourage his readers to live in light of their relationship with Christ, whether circumcised or not?

Prayer: for the church, for others, and for myself

Hymn: “My Jesus, I Love Thee”
My Jesus, I love Thee; I know Thou art mine.
For thee all the follies of sin I resign.
My gracious Redeemer, my Savior art Thou.
If ever I loved Thee, my Jesus, ‘tis now.

I love Thee because Thou hast first loved me,
And purchased my pardon on Calvary’s tree.
I love Thee for wearing the thorns on Thy brow.
If ever I loved Thee, my Jesus, ‘tis now.

I will love Thee in life, I will love Thee in death,
And praise Thee as long as Thou lendest me breath,
And say when the death dew lies cold on my brow,
“If ever I loved Thee, my Jesus, ‘tis now.”

In mansions of glory and endless delight,
I’ll ever adore Thee in heaven so bright.
I’ll sing with the glittering crown on my brow,
“If ever I loved Thee, my Jesus, ‘tis now.”

Closing Prayer: Create in me a pure heart, O God, and renew a steadfast spirit within me. Do not cast me from your presence or take your Holy Spirit from me. Restore to me the joy of your salvation and grant me a willing spirit, to sustain me. Amen.

Opening Prayer: Almighty God, grant me the wisdom and strength to be in Your presence this week, as I face the challenges and opportunities that come my way. Amen.

Read: Galatians 4:21-5:26

Reflect: What does it look like to be led by the Spirit? How are you reflecting the fact that you are led by the Spirit? What instructions would Paul be giving if he were writing specifically to you?

Read: Galatians 3:15-4:20

Reflect: How has God allowed us to become His children? What are the benefits of being children? What is Paul’s hope for the Galatians? How should we as Christians become like Paul?

Read: Galatians 2:11-3:14

Reflect: What do you think Paul’s life looked like after being crucified with Christ? How does Paul believe people receive the Holy Spirit? How are we supposed to live in light of the Spirit in us?
