Sunday 2 April: Space to reflect and pray

Taking action

Read today's devotional. Or click the play button to listen.

This week we’ve been exploring how we can put God’s word into action, with inspiration from various passages of Scripture. 

Look back over the suggested action points for each reflection and make a note of any that were particularly relevant to you. Spend time asking God to help you as you put them into practice in the coming weeks. 

Reflect on the ways you have been challenged to step out in faith this week and consider the things God has been teaching you through them. What have you learnt? What do you still find challenging? 

Using the following prompts, you might like to write down your prayers and reflections in a journal:

  • God’s love
  • The fruit of the Spirit
  • Making disciples
  • Living faith
  • A transformed mind
  • Joyful suffering

Revisit these prayers over the coming weeks.

How to use The Lent Encounter devotional

If you have two minutes: Listen to the audio reflection and ponder how it might be relevant in your life.

If you have up to ten minutes: Read the Bible passage and listen to the audio reflection; you might want to keep a small journal, or note on your phone, to jot down words and phrases that jump out at you. Finish with a brief prayer to put what you have read and heard into practice.

What if I miss a day(s)?Don’t worry, life happens! Just pick up the devotional again on the current day, and, if you wish, you can use the space for reflection on Sundays to listen to those reflections you may have missed.
