Family Devotion Day 40: It is time!

Read 

Bible reading for Day 40  | Psalm 127:1

“Unless the Lord builds the house, the builders labour in vain. Unless the Lord watches over the city, the guards stand watch in vain.”

Learn

Did you know a goldfish can only pay attention for nine seconds? 

And people pay attention for even less time – eight seconds! 

There are so many things in this world that take our attention away from God. But the Bible says we need to look at God, not other things, because we can do nothing well without Him. 

Unless God helps us “build our house”, our house will fall down. It is the same with everything else – unless God helps us do anything, what we do will not last. 

Sometimes we get so busy, we think we must finish all our work before sitting down to pray. But what we are busy with will be useless if we don’t do it with God and for God. 

Have you been giving God your attention? Prayer is one way to stay close to God our Father.

This is Day 40 of our Family Devotions. But it is not the last day. Keep praying that the Church of Singapore – yes, that includes you – will:

• Turn Singapore Godward
• Win the Youth
• Bless the Nations

Great job in finishing 40 Days of praying every day with Christians in Singapore to build God’s Kingdom! 

Discuss

1. Have you shared the Gospel with someone yet? It is time for you to just do it!

2. Will you promise to pray to God every day? Ask Him to help you talk to Him as soon as you open your eyes every morning, or before you go to sleep at night, or any time you want to talk to Him.

Pray

1. Pray that Singapore will turn to God. Ask Him for leaders who want to follow God’s ways and who love the people of Singapore.

2. Pray that the young people in Singapore will look for God and find Him. Ask God for a chance to invite your young friends to church where they can hear more about His love for them.

3. Ask God how you can bless people from other countries, whether it is to pray for them or to go with your church to their country to share the Gospel with them.
