REFLECTING UPON THE WORD WRITTEN (Scriptures)
1. PRAY FERVENTLY: Pray for the Holy Spirit to open your heart to receive God's Word.

2. READ SLOWLY: (Rom. 8:11; Col. 2:13-15; Eph. 5:18, 6:10-11; 1 Peter 1:3), (1 John 3:8), (Lk. 9:1-2, 10:17), (Matt. 17:14-21 & Mk.9:14-29), (Jn. 15:6-8)

3. REFLECT DEEPLY: Did any verses specifically stand out to you? Consider writing them down and any implication/application God may be pressing upon you.

REFLECTING UPON THE WORD SPOKEN (Sermon)
1. Why did Jesus come into this world?
2. Did Jesus' Kingdom Mission stop at His ascension?
3. What power and authority did Jesus place upon His disciples and His church?
4. In Matthew 7 (Mark 9), the disciples had a difficult time demonstrating Kingdom Power with a father's son suffering from spiritual oppression. How did Jesus describe His disciples? Why did they struggle?
5. From question #4, what could the church learn about Jesus' teachings?
6. How will you be able to assess whether you are following the devil's yoke vs. Jesus' yoke?
7. What steps will you take to draw yourself closer into the presence of God?
