Digest

Answer from what the passage actually says — stay in the text.

  1. What does this passage show me about God?

    • What flows through the city in this passage, and what are the leaves of the tree for?
  2. What does it show me about people — and about myself?

    • What does it change to know that healing is where the whole story is going, not a detour in it?
  3. What will I obey this week? (a concrete step, with a day)

    • What will you do this week that belongs to that ending rather than to this sickness?
  4. Who will I tell?

    • Who has lost hope of ever being well, who could hear how the story ends?

Grow

Growth is God's part, not yours. Do the cycle faithfully and trust Him to give the growth (1 Corinthians 3:6–7).

Pray

God, the river runs through the city and the leaves of the tree are for the healing of the nations. Keep that end in front of us while we work in the middle.
