In Exodus 34, God describes himself as “slow to anger,” but many people are uncomfortable with the portrait of God as an angry or emotional being. How does the Bible talk about anger, and how does this help us understand God as slow to anger?

  Key Scriptures: Luke 18 v.1 - 8; Luke 11 v.5 - 10
  
  Other Scripture refs: Luke 2 v.36 - 37; Eph.6 v.18; Hebs.11 v.6; Mark
  11v.24; James 5 v.15 - 16; Hebs.6 v.12;
  Mark 10 v.46 - 52; Hebs.5 v.7; 1 Sam.1 v.9 - 20; Matt.26 v.39, 42 - 44; Mark
  14 v.35 - 36, 39 - 41; Luke 22 v.41 - 44
  
  Sunday's teaching on Persevering in Prayer was largely taken from two
  parables of Jesus recorded in Luke 18 and Luke 11, but many other relevant
  Scriptures were also referred to.
  
  It is suggested you choose from (and modify as appropriate) the questions
  below to suit your Group and as the Holy Spirit leads you.
  
  QUESTIONS:
  1. To encourage others, have you had an experience you can share of
  persevering prayer which was finally answered? - maybe not answered in the
  way you expected and possibly even better than you'd hope for!
  
  2.Do you get discouraged and lose heart when the answer to your
  prayer request seems a long time coming? If so, has this affected you in
  persevering?
  
  Does it help you to not give up, recognising that prayer is firstly about
  maintaining and maturing your relationship with God?
  As James Montgomery says in his old hymn: "Prayer is the Christian's vital
  breath".
  
  3. Does the focus of your prayer life need to change from
  predominantly asking for things, to simply spending time in His presence
  appreciating Him for who He is and not for what we can get? As Tommy Tenney
  said: we are prone to seek what we can get from His hands, rather than
  seeking His face.

  ·       What steps can you take to adjust the focus of your prayer life? 

  ·       What have you found helpful that might help others in your Group?  

  4. Do you find the thought of making demands of God unashamedly and in
  an annoyingly persistent way difficult? 
  Why do you think this might be? (e.g. maybe it is seen by some as
  disrespectful)
  
  5. Have you had a personal (or corporate) experience where a desperate
  situation has caused you to get more fervent in prayer?
  What was the result?
  
  Some Take Away Thoughts for personal prayerful consideration:
  (i) Do you personally have unanswered prayer requests you
  may need to modify or seek God for possible 'hidden' reasons for delay?
  
  (ii) With the example of Jesus in the Garden of Gethsemane,
  grappling in his humanity, with a prayer which could not be answered, do you
  (as Jesus ultimately did) need to pray a prayer of surrender to the Father's
  will in any particular matter?

  Over the past three weeks, the Sunday preaches have considered 3 very different examples, which Paul cites in 2 Tim.2 as possessing desirable qualities for a disciple of Jesus: 

  ·         a dedicated soldier who is focussed on the mission he/she is engaged in

  ·         a disciplined athlete who runs with integrity to win the winner’s prize 

  ·         a diligent farmer

  1.In your discipleship of Christ, which do you see yourself as most like and in what way – the soldier, athlete or farmer? 

  2. Paul felt confident to say to the believers in Corinth (1 Cor.11 v.1), to imitate him in the way he lived, as he imitated Christ.

  • What aspects of your life and service as a disciple of Jesus do you feel confident to encourage others to imitate you in?

  3. Paul also expressed to the Corinthian believers that whilst they could have many teachers to learn from, he saw himself as their one spiritual father. (1 Cor.4 v.15)

  • Have you had the blessing of a special relationship with a spiritual father or mother at any stage of your Christian walk with the Lord? Do you feel able to share who that relationship was with and in what ways they were of help to you?

  4. The following qualities of a farmer were recognised in Sunday’s preach:

  ·         diligent – hardworking

  ·         dependent on God

  ·         patient in waiting

  ·         forward looking

  ·         persevering

  ·         a faithful steward

  ·         passionate

  Which of these qualities do you consider that you need to grow in to become a more effective disciple of Christ?       

   

  Do you have a trusted person to help you in this, who you could become accountable to?

   

  5. Do you have a believer or believers, who you are seeking to help shape as a disciple of Christ, from your own experience as a disciple?

  Is there someone in Redeemer who the Holy Spirit is impressing on your heart who you could get alongside and help them grow as a disciple of Jesus?      

   

  -          Paul’s instruction in Titus 2 v.1 - 10 may be of help if your Group discusses what to teach/impart to people at different life-stages.  

   

  6. Is anyone experiencing a particularly hard time currently and would like prayer from the Group to help you persevere whilst drawing strength from God and trusting Him to bring you through the situation you are facing?
