In This Edition: Which Story Are You Living in? How to Pray through Part of Isaiah. Ways to Meet with the Body of Christ. It Takes How Many Touchpoints for Someone to Visit a Church?!

This Chaos Won’t Last—God Will Intervene

Life often feels like an endless cycle of chaos. Problems keep coming. Injustice keeps happening. It can feel like nothing will ever change. But 2 Peter 3:1-7 reminds us: this era won’t last.

Just as God has intervened in history before, He is active now and will bring ultimate restoration in the future. His word spoke creation into existence, His word sustained His people through history, and His word promises that He will set things right again.

So how do we live with hope instead of despair?

✅ View life through God’s story, not just the chaos. What voices shape your outlook—news, social media, or God’s word? Align your perspective with His truth.

✅ Meet consistently with Jesus. Spend time in Scripture, prayer, and community. Let His promises shape your daily decisions.

✅ Remind others of God’s intervention. Who in your life needs encouragement? Share how God has worked before and will work again.

Don’t settle for a worldview of hopelessness. Keep your eyes on the God who has, is, and will intervene. Through faith in Jesus, we can trust this era of chaos won’t last. God will intervene and bring change at last.

Who in your life needs this reminder today? Share this truth and live in faith!

This Sunday, we’ll continue through God’s word in 2 Peter, reflecting on what it invites us into as we prepare to deal with whatever comes next.

A Resource to Help You Journey to Resurrection Sunday

In March, we’ll be offering a prayer guide to help you know Jesus more deeply as we prepare to celebrate His life, death, and resurrection on Easter Sunday. Keep an eye out for this resource so you can get your own copy. We look forward to how God will shape and mold us as we pray and reflect more deeply on His life and example.
