REFLECTIVE APPLICATIONAL QUESTIONS: ROMANS 11:24-13:14

1. Do I approach God's mysteries with humility or demand clarity before I trust? How does Romans 11 challenge me to trust God even when I don’t understand his timing or ways?
   
   
2. If all things are truly from him, through him, and to him—how should that reshape my priorities?
   
   
3. What does it look like for you to offer your body as a living sacrifice today? (Think: decisions, time, thought life, relationships)
   
   
4. Do I trust that God is sovereign over the government—even when leaders seem unjust or corrupt? How does believing this shape my attitudes and actions?
   
   
5. Where might I be making “provision for the flesh” instead of putting on Christ? What’s one thing you need to remove—and one truth about Christ you need to “put on”? 

On August 21, 1881, C. H. Spurgeon, the “Prince of Preachers,” delivered a sermon to his congregation at the Metropolitan Tabernacle in London, England, based on Romans 13:11-14. Spurgeon titled the sermon, “Dressing in the Morning.” 

Here’s how he closes the sermon:

“Our Lord is a fit robe for life and death, for time and for eternity. I expect to battle till I die—here is my armor, the integrity and uprightness which I learn of Christ will preserve me. I expect in death to rise out of this lower life into a higher one, and when I reach that higher life, that glory life, I shall require garment, and I shall find it in my Lord. I cannot have a better garment than the Lord, Himself….”
