Let’s set our hearts on H.E.A.R. (ing) from the Lord as we prayerfully read the letter to the Ephesians, chapter 4.
Write your responses to your H.E.A.R. prompts and discuss with a near one or group. Look for opportunities ‘to do the book’ in your daily traffic patterns.
Pray with compassion for neighbors who are ‘far away’ from the Lord – V.18 – “they are darkened in their understanding, excluded from the life of God, because of the ignorance that is in them and because of the hardness of their hearts….” Pray for a Jesus awakening to occur in their lives. Be aware of a ‘preoccupied’ neighbor experiencing a crisis that may be an opportunity to be a witness for Christ.
- H. – highlight – i.e. Prayerfully take time to highlight or underline the words or phrases that stick out most to you.
- E. – explain - Thoughtfully write out in your own words what you understand and why it’s significant.
- A. – apply – i.e. – consider ways this passage connects to your life.
- R. – respond – i.e. – prayerful response with your heart to the Word for transformation.
