Prayer
Chorus: Lion of Judah, we worship You
Take time to recognise that God is in our midst.
Pray to the Lord that we may be filled with and drunk in the Holy Spirit. To be at a point where you can hear the prompting of the Spirit in all situations.
Pray for the All Nations’ Center and their families that all may be laid on the altar of sacrifice.
The Difference Between Sloth and Rest
Consider this interview with John Piper.
The laziness of the sluggard is owing to his overpowering aversion to work. And the restfulness of the diligent is received as a gracious reward for the gift of God-glorifying work and a pleasant preparation for renewed productivity.
When you work, you honour God. When you do real work, you do it for others and not for yourself, ultimately for God’s glory.

Homework
Take time to consider your work and your rest. Does your work align with God’s purposes? Does your rest prepare you for the work ahead of you?
