I pray that by God\u2019s redemptive grace, our families will be transformed. &nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px;\">I would like you to go through the Scriptures from Joshua 24, Judges 1 and 2 this week. &nbsp;Joshua led the Israelites and their next generations to serve the Lord after entering the promised land. However, in Judges 2, things changed drastically after Joshua died. &nbsp;I would like you to read and imagine what had happened between Joshua 24 and Judges 2. &nbsp;What are the implications to us today as a family?<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: right;\">Pastor Julian Wong<\/p>\n\n\n<h6>PRAY<\/h6>\n\n\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px;\">Dear Heavenly Father, may Your grace dwell in our family deeply. May Your redemptive grace be our daily guidance. If there are relationships to be reconciled, may your love compels us to confess with one another. May the Holy Spirit guide our family to make daily decisions to glorify you amidst of our busy schedule. In Jesus Christ\u2019s name, we pray. Amen.<\/p>\n\n\n<h6>DIVING DEEPER<\/h6>\n\n\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px;\">In your family, how does your daily schedule look like?
