When the Enemy Prowls

As we wrap up our series, “Forged,” JP shows us three unavoidable obstacles that are found in Scripture and how to combat them. JP looks to 1 Peter to show us how anxiety, temptation and suffering can be combated with a Kingdom first mindset. 

1 Peter 5:6-10

       1) In anxiety, humble yourself

       2) In temptation, resist the devil

       3) In suffering, practice patience

Life Group Questions:

       1) When faced with anxiety, how can you effectively cast those burdens on the Lord knowing how much He cares for you?

       2) Was there a time when you were hesitant to bring sin to the light out of fear that others wouldn’t understand? What is a verse that you have clung to when faced with temptation?

       3) What is a way that you can help others practice patience in times of suffering? Explain a time where you were shown grace in the midst of suffering.
