This week we are challenged to go the extra mile in our spiritual journey. Take some time this week to reflect on your life and how you could go deeper with God. Is it time for you to graduate from milk to meat?
LIVING WORDS FOR YOUR WEEK
Hebrews 6:18-19 (NLT)
"So God has given both his promise and his oath. These two things are unchangeable because it is impossible for God to lie. Therefore, we who have fled to him for refuge can have great confidence as we hold to the hope that lies before us. This hope is a strong and trustworthy anchor for our souls. It leads us through the curtain into God’s inner sanctuary."

HEAD
- Hebrews 5:11-14 speaks about spiritual maturity. What does the writer mean by “solid food” versus “milk”?
- According to Hebrews 6:1-3, what are the “basic teachings about Christ” that believers are encouraged to move beyond? Why is this important?
- Hebrews 6:4-6 is a challenging passage about falling away from faith. How do you understand the warning given here?
- In Hebrews 7:23-25, how is Jesus’ priesthood different from the Levitical priests? Why is it significant that Jesus lives forever to intercede for us?
HEART
- When I face doubt or discouragement, do I hold tightly to the hope God has given me, as described in Hebrews 6:18-19?
- Hebrews 7:25 says Jesus lives forever to intercede for us. How does knowing that Jesus is actively praying for me affect how I approach difficult situations?
- Is there an area in my life where I need to stop relying on “milk” and step into a deeper understanding of God’s word?
- How am I responding to God’s promises in my life—do I trust Him fully, or do I struggle to believe He will come through?
