<h2>Memory Verses and Reflection Questions</h2>
<h3>MONDAY, 9/20</h3>
<p><strong>Memory Verse</strong></p>
<p>James 4:4</p>
<p>You adulterous people, don’t you know that friendship with the world is hatred toward God? Anyone who chooses to be a friend of the world becomes an enemy of God.</p>
<p><strong>Reflection Questions</strong></p>
<p>James 4:1-2</p>
<ul>
<li>How have I experienced my heart to be the battle field of different desires?</li>
<li>How does this show that so much of a person’s unhappiness comes from within?</li>
<li>How is prayer the solution to lusting and fighting?</li>
</ul>
<p><strong> </strong></p>
<h3>TUESDAY, 9/21</h3>
<p><strong>Memory Verse</strong></p>
<p>James 5:16</p>
<p>Therefore confess your sins to each other and pray for each other so that you may be healed. The prayer of a righteous man is powerful and effective.</p>
<p><strong> </strong></p>
<p><strong>Reflection Questions</strong></p>
<p>James 5:16-20</p>
<ul>
<li>Why may it be the case that confession brings healing?</li>
<li>How have I experienced healing through the prayers of “righteous” people, as I confessed my sins to them, in the past?</li>
<li>Why does James say that “Elijah was a man just like us?”</li>
<li>How should I respond to the needs of those who are sick, who have sinned, and those who have wandered from the truth? Who are these people in my life?</li>
</ul>
<h3>WEDNESDAY, 9/22</h3>
<p><strong>Memory Verse</strong></p>
<p>1 Peter 1:13-15</p>
<p><sup>13 </sup>Therefore, prepare your minds for action; be self-controlled; set your hope fully on the grace to be given you when Jesus Christ is revealed. <sup>14 </sup>As obedient children, do not conform to the evil desires you had when you lived in ignorance. <sup>15 </sup>But just as he who called you is holy, so be holy in all you do;</p>
<p><strong>Reflection Questions</strong></p>
<p>1 Peter 1:14-16</p>
<ul>
<li>What are the evil desires that I had when I lived in ignorance?  How has the knowledge of the gospel made a difference in my life in terms of dealing with evil desires?</li>
<li>How does the fact that I have a Heavenly Father who is holy motivate me to strive toward holiness?</li>
<li>“Holiness” means not only moral purity but also being “set apart” for a special purpose.  What are the areas in my life where I need to be morally pure?  What are the areas in my life that I need to be set apart in?</li>
</ul>
<h3>THURSDAY, 9/23</h3>
<p><strong>Memory Verse</strong></p>
<p>1 Peter 2:9</p>
<p>But you are a chosen people, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a people belonging to God, that you may declare the praises of him who called you out of darkness into his wonderful light.</p>
<p><strong>Reflection Questions</strong></p>
<p>1 Peter 2:5-9</p>
<ul>
<li>What view of self is challenged by the fact that, as a Christian, I am but a stone in a spiritual house, a part of the larger whole?</li>
<li>Reflect on the corporate nature of my identify – “people, “ “priesthood,” and “nation”.  In what ways have I refused this and insisted in my own individualism?</li>
<li>What things in my life are not becoming of a citizen of God’s chosen people, a royal priesthood, a holy nation?</li>
</ul>

<p><strong> </strong></p>
<p><strong>Memory Verse</strong></p>
<p>James 1:19-20</p>
<p>My dear brothers, take note of this: Everyone should be quick to listen, slow to speak and slow to become angry, <sup>20 </sup>for man’s anger does not bring about the righteous life that God desires.</p>
<p><strong> </strong></p>
<p><strong>Reflection Questions</strong></p>

<li>Reflect on these words:  “pure; then peace-loving, considerate, submissive, full of mercy and good fruit, impartial and sincere.” What are some practical ways in which I can increase in these characteristics in my relationships?</li>

<h3>Monday, 9/6</h3>
<p><strong>Memory Verse</strong></p>
<p>Heb  9:27 Just as man is destined to die once, and after that to face judgment, <sup>28 </sup>so Christ was sacrificed once to take away the sins of many people; and he will appear a second time, not to bear sin, but to bring salvation to those who are waiting for him.</p>
<p><strong>Reflection Questions</strong></p>

<p><strong> </strong></p>
<p><strong>Reflection Questions</strong></p>

<li>Given the seriousness of this message and the fact that this is addressed to believers, what should my attitude be towards vigilance against sin?</li>

</ul>
<h3>Wednesday, 9/8</h3>

<p><strong>Reflection Questions</strong></p>

<h3>Thursday, 9/9</h3>
<p><strong>Memory Verse</strong></p>

<p><strong>Reflection Questions</strong></p>
<p>Hebrews 12:14-17</p>
<ul>
<li>What are the things that Christians are actively called to do as well as not do?</li>

<h2>Daily Devotion and Bible Reading Plan</h2>

<p>Fri-Sun                9/3-5                      Jeremiah 21-30</p>
<h2>Memory Verses and Reflection Questions</h2>
<h3>Monday, 8/30</h3>
<p><strong>Memory Verse</strong></p>
<p>Heb 5:7 During the days of Jesus’ life on earth, he offered up prayers and petitions with loud cries and tears to the one who could save him from death, and he was heard because of his reverent submission.</p>
<p><strong>Reflection Questions</strong></p>
<p>Hebrews 5:7-10</p>
<ul>
<li>What can I learn from the fact that even Jesus “offered up prayers and petitions with loud cries and tears to the one who could save him from death” and “learned obedience from what he suffered?”</li>
<li>What is the relationship between Jesus’ suffering and “eternal salvation for all who obey him?”  What sufferings are before me which God can use to help me learn obedience?</li>
</ul>
<p><strong> </strong></p>
<h3>Tuesday, 8/31</h3>
<p><strong> </strong></p>
<p><strong>Memory Verse</strong></p>
<p>Heb 6:10 God is not unjust; he will not forget your work and the love you have shown him as you have helped his people and continue to help them.<strong> </strong></p>
<p><strong> </strong></p>
<p><strong>Reflection Questions</strong></p>
<p>Hebrews 6:4-8</p>
<ul>
<li>How is the rejection of Christ by those who have been enlightened “crucifying…the Son of God all over again and subjecting him to public disgrace”?</li>
<li>How do such people resemble the land that “drinks in the rain often falling on it,” yet “produces thorns and thistles”?  What warning can I take from this?</li>
</ul>
<h3>Wednesday, 9/1</h3>
<p><strong>Memory Verse</strong></p>
<p>Heb 7:25 Therefore he is able to save completely(<a href="#_ftn1">a)</a> those who come to God through him, because he always lives to intercede for them.</p>
<p><strong>Reflection Questions</strong></p>
<p>Hebrews 7:20-28</p>
<p>“Because of the unequivocal nature of the God’s oath, all danger of some change in the future has been wiped away.  Thus, Jesus has become the ‘guarantee’ of a better covenant.  The word [‘guarantee’] referred to a person who guaranteed the position or endeavors of someone else while putting him- or herself at risk.”<a href="#_ftn2">[2]</a></p>
<ul>
<li>Reflect on the fact that Jesus “is able to save completely those who come to God through him” and that “he always lives to intercede” for me.  What perspective does this provide for me in my fight against sin?</li>
<li>Who is Jesus to me?  How has he met my need?</li>
</ul>
<h3>Thursday, 9/2</h3>
<p><strong>Memory Verse</strong></p>
<p>Heb 8:12 For I will forgive their wickedness and will remember their sins no more.”</p>
<p><strong>Reflection Questions</strong></p>
<p>Hebrews 8:12</p>
<p>“The fullness of this pardon; it extends to their unrighteousness, sins, and iniquities; to all kinds of sin, to sins highly aggravated.  The fixedness of this pardon; it is so final and so fixed that God will remember their sins no more; he will not recall his pardon.  He will not only forgive their sins, but forget them, treat them as if he had forgotten them.  This pardoning mercy is connected with all other spiritual mercies.”<a href="#_ftn2">[1]</a></p>
<ul>
<li>Reflect on God’s covenantal promise in v. 12.  How was this unconditional pardon achieved?</li>
<li>What is my response to God’s gracious pardon?</li>
</ul>

<td width="333" valign="top">“Again, Paul… makes   his request as a partner and laces it with accounting terminology: “if he   owes,” “charge it to me,” “I will pay.” Paul tries to forestall any possible   unwillingness to receiving Onesimus back with open arms by incurring a debt   of honor to make restitution for any wrong committed by Onesimus. This   sweeping pledge is more than a rhetorical appeal “merely for the sake of   argument.” Although Paul states the matter hypothetically, “if he has done   you any wrong,” it is hypothetical “only in form.” Paul knows very well that   Onesimus has wronged his master and may perhaps owe him a considerable sum of   money.”[1]</p>

<li>What does   Apostle Paul’s offer reveal about the effect of outstanding wrongs or issues   to burden and strain relationships?</li>
