Sabbatical -Stepping away for a season

Returning in September-Returning with renewed energy and focus

-Ephesians 1:21-23 - Now he is far above any ruler or authority or power or leader or anything else—not only in this world but also in the world to come. 22 God has put all things under the authority of Christ and has made him head over all things for the benefit of the church. 23 And the church is his body; it is made full and complete by Christ, who fills all things everywhere with himself.

-John 13:33-35 - Dear children, I will be with you only a little longer. And as I told the Jewish leaders, you will search for me, but you can’t come where I am going. 34 So now I am giving you a new commandment: Love each other. Just as I have loved you, you should love each other. 35 Your love for one another will prove to the world that you are my disciples.”

SIN CYCLE-

A pattern seen throughout the History of Israel.

• God blesses the people
• The people forget about God
• God removes His hand of blessing
• The people cry out for deliverance
• God send a Savior

How do we RETURN to the LORD? Judges 2:18, Hosea 6:1-3 NLT

Step 1: Repentance 2 Kings 22:11-13 NLT

Step 2: Obedience 2 Kings 23:1-5 NLT

Step 3: Holiness 2 Kings 23:21-25 NLT

Remember your first love.

Repent of distraction.

Return to undistracted devotion.

God remembers Isaiah 49:13-16 NIV
