011 Hosea 2:16-23

In this week's message, we see a beautiful picture of prayer in the closing verses of Hosea 2. In this future heaven and Earth, God answers the heavens which answer the Earth, which answers the grain and wine and oil, which answer Israel. There is no disharmony in the prayers of this new heaven and Earth.

What are the things you are praying for right now? Share these with your group so they can join you in your prayers.

Have you considered the potential disharmony of your prayers? Do you find yourself praying selfishly without thinking about the effect your prayers would have on others? How would your day to day life change if you stopped grumbling over your frustrations and prayed for them instead? Talk with your group about this different perspective and how it will change the way you think about prayer.

Spend time as a group in prayer. Pray for each other. Commit to praying for each other throughout the week and commit to thinking through your prayers.
