Seek the Lord Obey His Commands Reflection Questions Who is somebody you knew whose life was one of unvarnished positives? What were those positive qualities? In general, what does it take for a person to have a generally positive life? What are qualities that you would look for in that person? The passage states that it was ‘the Lord (who) gave him rest’. How would you describe the activity of the Lord in the affairs of state, i.e. allowing or holding back war? (Both in Judah during the time of the text and also in our day) The text states that the state of peace was taken advantage of for furtherance of their security. What kinds of activities should a state/individual take when times are prosperous and there is an abundance? How would you describe Asa's dependent prayer? (desperate, confident, anxious, fearful, faithful, etc.) What in the text indicates your response? Would you describe your life currently as one of peace or one that feels under attack? What current responses are you taking to confront your circumstances in life? What quality of Asa do you admire? How would a person go about emulating that quality? In what ways is your life like/dislike that of Asa? Announcements Women's Monday Night Bible Study Starting Soon!: We will be walking through Abide by Jen Wilkin, a ten-week study of 1, 2, 3 John.
