Part 3: Make Someday Today

Conversation starter. Start light and fun conversation in your group about the series topic.
•Talk about the longest wait you’ve had at the Emergency Room. What were some of the people there going through?
Contemplate. Ask questions to get your group thinking about these principles.
•Read John 5:1-7. Why do you think Jesus asked the question, “Do you want to get well?” in verse 6?
•Read John 5:8-10. What do you think was going through the man’s mind after being told to stand but before taking the action of standing? What was he thinking after standing?
•What do you think the Jewish leaders were thinking?
•What was the heart condition of each and what changes, if any, were taking place in them?
Contribute. Ask questions that create personal openness in your group.
•What do you believe God’s purpose for your life is and what are you doing to clarify His plan?
•Has anyone ever told you about what they thought God was doing in their life? What was your reaction?
Cry out to God. Pray intensely for your group on the topic.
Father, we are asking You to turn our messes into Your miracles. Give us the strength to turn our backs on excuses. Grow our faith until we fully believe You can do what You say You can do. Show us clearly what each of our purposes are as we obey You. Amen.
Commit to change. What’s a new area to grow with the Lord?
