Engage The Word – May 14, 2015

1. Before you read, quiet your heart for one minute of silence

2. Read the following Scripture:

1 Samuel 20:16 – 23

16 So Jonathan made a covenant with the house of David, saying, “May the LORD call David’s enemies to account.” 
17And Jonathan had David reaffirm his oath out of love for him, because he loved him as he loved himself. 
18 Then Jonathan said to David: “Tomorrow is the New Moon festival. You will be missed, because your seat will be empty. 
19 The day after tomorrow, toward evening, go to the place where you hid when this trouble began, and wait by the stone Ezel. 
20 I will shoot three arrows to the side of it, as though I were shooting at a target. 
21 Then I will send a boy and say, ‘Go, find the arrows.’ If I say to him, ‘Look, the arrows are on this side of you; bring them here,’ then come, because, as surely as the LORD lives, you are safe; there is no danger. 
22But if I say to the boy, ‘Look, the arrows are beyond you,’ then you must go, because the LORD has sent you away. 
23 And about the matter you and I discussed–remember, the LORD is witness between you and me forever.”

3. What God saying to you through this Scripture?  Pause for another minute and let God speak to you in your silence

4.  Read the following Scripture:

  John 1:29 – 34

6.  The Gloria
“Glory be to the Father, and to the Son and to the Holy Spirit.  As it was in the beginning, is now and ever shall be.  World without end.”
 Amen.
