Write any phrases from the selected Bible verses that speak to you:
Close your eyes and see yourself explaining something to someone, whether it’s how to change a tire or how to fix a special recipe. In the same way, we have the great privilege of sharing the Good News of Christ. In the presence of one or many, we can praise Him for who He is and what He has done in our lives, and we can proclaim Him by speaking about His truths found in Scripture.
Did you come to know Christ through someone who shared the gospel with you? Explain.
How does this person and his or her witness challenge you?
Write a prayer using the above verses as a reference.
The Lord is a stronghold for the oppressed, a stronghold in times of trouble. And those who know your name put their trust in you; for you, O Lord, have not forsaken those who seek you. Psalm 9:9-10
Dear Lord,
May you be our only stronghold! Everything else fails! Help us to release our tight grip on what we think is best and then make a deliberate choice to hold onto your trustworthy promises, especially in difficult times. Cause us to cling to you with hope, both for the present moment and for the future. In Jesus' Name, Amen.
