Teach Intentionally..."Family Time…Trust Jesus’ help", with Stacy A. Davis ~ Bible Teacher and Sky Ranch Board Member


Family Time…Trust Jesus’ help



This month’s family time topic from the “Sky Ranch Family Devotional: Follow the Leader” is on “Jesus helps and counsels you“ and the weekly discussion is on “Jesus’ eternal help – trust it.“

This week in your family time, I would encourage you to prepare by praying for your family and asking God to continue to lead the conversation on the Holy Spirit. Pray that He will help your family see the eternal benefits of following Jesus.

Do you have questions or need prayer for your family? Email me at SkyMoms@skyranch.org.
I will be praying for you!

This week we are in the 6th  Topic and 31st  Family Time (or page 60 ) of the Sky Ranch Family Devotional “Follow the Leader”…
Family Time 31: 
Topic 6: Jesus helps and counsels you…Jesus’ eternal help – trust it
Talk with God: Read…Scriptures and questions below.
Romans 8:11  But if the Spirit of Him who raised Jesus from the dead dwells in you, He who raised Christ Jesus from the dead will also give life to your mortal bodies through His Spirit who indwells you.
  • In Romans 8:11, what does His Spirit give to your mortal bodies?

John 6:40  (Jesus is speaking) "For this is the will of My Father, that everyone who beholds the Son and believes in Him, may have  eternal  life; and I Myself will raise him up on the last day."
  • In John 6:40, what kind of life is Jesus promising?

Ephesians 2:4   But God, being rich in mercy, because of His great love with which He loved us,  5  even when we were dead in our transgressions, made us alive together with Christ (by grace you have been saved),  6  and  raised  us up with Him, and seated us with Him in the heavenly [places], in Christ  Jesus,  7  in order that in the ages to come He might show the surpassing riches of His grace in kindness toward us in Christ  Jesus.
  • In Ephesians 2:5-6, God is going to raise you with who and seat you where?

Walk with God: Discuss… The Holy Spirit raised Jesus from the dead. He dwells in you. What does God’s Holy Spirit help you do eternally?

Prayer suggestion…  Pray that you will believe Jesus and have eternal life.

Family Time 31: 
Leader Answers:
  • Life
  • Eternal life and resurrection
  • Raise you with Jesus and seat you in heavenly places
  • Discussion ideas: True belief in Jesus will cause you to live eternally with Him. You and I are eternal; it is just a matter of where you are going to live out your eternity.  God tells us in Revelation 20:4-15 that those who believe Jesus are in the book of life and will be raised in the first resurrection. And that same group will be saved from the eternal fire. Where do you want to live out eternity?
