The Woman and the Dragon

“The Woman and the Dragon”

 Revelation 12:1-6

Take-Home Truth: Satan’s attack is great against us, but God’s care will sustain us. 

Christ-Connection: In the face of Satan’s rage, Christ is our greatest provision to

persevere in the wilderness.

Hook: (Ice-breaker question. Get the group talking!)

1. Describe a time in your life when you were in a wilderness area, away from people and civilization. 

Engage: (Observe the passage and engage with the text)

2. As a group read Revelation 12:1-6 aloud. Make observations. Discuss and unpack

these verses together in light of global and personal suffering.

3. Identify the following key players in the text:

• The woman’s son (v. 5) –
• The dragon (v. 4) –
• The woman (vv. 1, 2, 5) –

Reflect: (Reflect upon the key take-aways from the sermon)

4. Richard shared 4 reasons why there is so much suffering in the world. The fourth (the rage of Satan) was focused upon. As a group, talk about how Satan’s rage is experienced in the world today and how you have experienced his rage personally.

 Respond: (Apply the truths of God’s Word to your heart, affections, and actions)

5. Describe your current experience in the “wilderness”. Share your feelings and the lessons you are learning.
