Prayer

Jesus, equip me to be a master disciple-maker, then guide me to receptive disciples. Lead me to the people that You’ve chosen. There’s no need for me to waste my time on people that You’re not calling and preparing. I’ll engage in the disciple-making process from beginning to end. Empower me to preach the gospel in the power of the Holy Spirit. Release Your power through me in a way that produces supernatural miracles and deep conviction of sin. In response to my preaching, may there be major repentance and commitment to You. Confirm my message with signs and wonders. May this power in preaching give these new believers a hunger for true discipleship, then train me how to teach them step by step. My instruction will be customized to their needs. As I instruct them in Your word, release joy in their hearts. In time, they’ll turn into witnesses, testimonies, and examples for other people. Bless my disciple-making efforts throughout the entire process. Make my life influential within this lost world. By Your grace, I’ll build the church through investing in people. I will accomplish this in Your name, amen.

1 Thessalonians 1:4-10

For we know, brothers and sisters loved by God, that he has chosen you, because our gospel came to you not simply with words but also with power, with the Holy Spirit and deep conviction. You know how we lived among you for your sake. You became imitators of us and of the Lord, for you welcomed the message in the midst of severe suffering with the joy given by the Holy Spirit. And so you became a model to all the believers in Macedonia and Achaia. The Lord’s message rang out from you not only in Macedonia and Achaia—your faith in God has become known everywhere. Therefore we do not need to say anything about it, for they themselves report what kind of reception you gave us. They tell how you turned to God from idols to serve the living and true God, and to wait for his Son from heaven, whom he raised from the dead—Jesus, who rescues us from the coming wrath.
