SIGNS: Healings & Miracles

Sunday & Life Group Series beginning Sunday, September 17

As we look at the New Testament, we make a remarkable discovery: the number one way people encountered Jesus was through healings and miracles. We cannot look at Jesus without looking at healing and miracles. As we look at the Scriptures, history, and what is happening in the world today, we will conclude that God is still using healings and miracles as a means of introducing people to Jesus. The Lord is inviting us to come along on the journey with Him and preach the kingdom and heal the sick. (Luke 9:2).

In this 7-week Life Group series, we will learn how healing flows from the very nature of God, the role of covenant, the cross, and the Kingdom in healing and miracles. Let’s discover how every believer has been commissioned to heal the sick, and how we can partner with God in bringing miracles into people’s lives so that they may know Jesus!

Week 7: Working with Faith

  1. What is the purpose for sharing words of knowledge?
  2. How do you think words of knowledge can work with healing?
  3. How do words of knowledge build up faith in both the person who shares the word and the person who receives it?
  4. How might God speak to you using pictures or images to give you a word of knowledge? Have you ever had this happen?
  5. Have you ever been praying for someone, and words come out that you didn’t even think … they just came out and it ministered to the person you were praying with? Share with your group.

Getting Started in Your Life Group: In this 8-week series, you’ll be lead with a discussion video, equipping verses to read together, and discussion questions. Each group should be 90+ minutes and about 30 minutes for hanging out afterward.

Before Your Group

Create the right atmosphere by being hospitable. Let’s roll out the red carpet for those coming to our Life Group. Whether that’s meeting them at the door, getting their drinks, or even giving a tour of your home—be sure to help them feel comfortable and taken care of. That mean providing a clean environment too. It sounds very practical, but it speaks volume.

During Your Group

Allow everyone to participate in discussion. Be sure that everyone has the opportunity to speak. Be honest, open, and transparent. Remember to be you, and understand that God has equipped you to leave this group!

Close with prayer. Take time during your Life Group to pray for one another, allowing others to lead in prayer. 

After Group

Set time aside for hang out. Whether it’s before or after, be intentional to leave room for people to get to know each other.

Respect others time. It can be easy to get off track and lose track of time, but be sensitive to others responsibilities by closing the group at the time that you set.

Thank everyone for coming. Be sure to thank everyone for coming, and when you do so, set the next time for your next Life Group.
