Reading God’s Word: 2 John

Advent Reading:  Matthew 1:18-25

Memorizing God’s Word: 1 John 5:12 Whoever has the Son has life; whoever does not have the Son of God does not have life.

Meditating on God’s Word: 2 John 6And this is love: that we walk in obedience to his commands. As you have heard from the beginning, his command is that you walk in love.

Praying God’s Word: “Lord, teach us what this looks like. To walk in love toward you, our families, even complete strangers. Give us an ever-increasing obedience to your Word, so that we can walk in an ever-increasing love. We want to love through our differences. Love through our hurts. Love through our weaknesses. Just like you’ve commanded, just like you’ve shown us in Jesus. In whatever the Holy Spirit brings to mind right now, help us to walk in love. In Jesus’ name, Amen.
