"God is Like An Elephant: He Never Forgets His Promises (Acts 10:1-8)
October 30 - November 5, 2011

PRAY
Before you begin reading, reflecting, discussing, and applying, begin by opening your heart up to our Savior and Lord.  Praise Him and ask Him to incline your heart to His.   Invite Him to search your heart and make Himself known.

STUDY
Read Acts 10. Take time to reflect, ask questions (write them down as you go through), and then research and study the answers.  www.biblestudytools.com has a lot of great free online resources.

DISCUSS
Have you ever made a promise and then dropped/forgotten it?  Have you ever been promised something by someone and they never delivered?  Do you ever feel like God has forgotten one of His promises?  What is reassuring about what God says to Cornelius?

LIVE
Take time this week to renew your heart towards God.  If you were feeling bitter towards Him, repent and renew your trust in His faithfulness and the future hope we have in Him.  Apply the character of God to your own life.  Are there promises that you have made that you haven’t held up?  If so, do something about it and make it right.
