Sermon Discussion Questions

  1. What is the “season of testing”? What is this season for? Discuss the biblical examples of the testing of Abraham (Gen 22:1) and the 3 Hebrew boys (Dan 3:8-25). How can we overcome this season? (1 Cor 10:13, Deut 8:5, Pro 17:3)
  2. God tests us in 4 areas; pride, integrity, patience and obedience. Reflect on each of these areas. Which of these do you find the hardest to overcome?
  3. Why does God choose to test us in these area. What does He require from us? How may we emerge stronger from this season of testing, qualified to answer the call He has placed on our lives? (Isa 48:10)
