Week 40: Monday Discipleship Guide

  • Psalm 127

    Unless the Lord builds the house,
        those who build it labor in vain.
    Unless the Lord watches over the city,
        the watchman stays awake in vain.
    It is in vain that you rise up early
        and go late to rest,
    eating the bread of anxious toil;
        for he gives to his beloved sleep.

    Behold, children are a heritage from the Lord,
        the fruit of the womb a reward.
    Like arrows in the hand of a warrior
        are the children of one's youth.
    Blessed is the man
        who fills his quiver with them!
    He shall not be put to shame
        when he speaks with his enemies in the gate.

  • Genesis 2:1-4

    Thus the heavens and the earth were finished, and all the host of them. And on the seventh day God finished his work that he had done, and he rested on the seventh day from all his work that he had done. So God blessed the seventh day and made it holy, because on it God rested from all his work that he had done in creation.

    These are the generations
    of the heavens and the earth when they were created,
    in the day that the Lord God made the earth and the heavens.

  • Question: Where do blessings and security truly come from?

    Answer: Only from the Lord who builds, guards, and blesses; all effort is empty unless it rests in Him.


  • Psalm 127:1 - “Unless the Lord builds the house, those who build it labor in vain. Unless the Lord watches over the city, the watchman stays awake in vain.”
