Grow
G1 A resting face is the expression on your face when it is at rest. What is your resting face (if you don’t know, ask a friend!)
G2 What based on Revelation 1:4 what could we imagine to be God’s resting face?
G3 How do we see the Trinity represented in verse 4b and 5a? What is the significance of the 3 titles given to Christ in this verse? How can they encourage us?
G4 How do we see Christ relating to us in verse 5b and 6 – think of what Christ has done in the past, in the present and what he will do in the future.
G5 This passage begins and ends with referring to God as he “who is, and who was, and who is to come”. Why is this significant and what does the bookending tell us, particularly in the context of the readers of Revelation undergoing persecution?

S1 Imagine “Grace and Peace” being spoken from God over you (v4) and “Glory and Power” being spoken by you to God (v6). Imagine this exchange taking place. You could even pray it as a breath prayer: “Grace + peace” (as you breathe in), “Glory + Power” (as you breathe out).
