(PART 1)
When called to take a stand for Jesus, we often feel we lack courage or expertise. Courage comes through the Spirit and a firm conviction that Jesus is the only way.
READ: Mark 9:17-27; John 14:6-20; Rom. 4:18-22; 2 Tim. 1:12; Heb. 3:14-19; James 1:5-7.
HEART ISSUE: Do you lack courage or conviction? Are you convinced Jesus is who He says and will do what He says?
PRAYER FOCUS: Father, please forgive my reservations when sharing Your Son. Stir my heart so that I may boldly proclaim the gospel of Christ. Amen.
(PART 2)
Jesus promised His disciples He would give them the same power that enabled Him to proclaim God’s kingdom. That power comes through the indwelling Holy Spirit.
READ: Is. 61:1-4; Matt. 10:17-39; Mark 16:17-18; Luke 21:12-19; Acts 1:4-8; Heb. 12:1-3.
HEART ISSUE: Are you confident you have received the power of the Holy Spirit? Are you walking out that power?
PRAYER FOCUS: Jesus, thank You for sending the Holy Spirit. Teach me to keep in step with Him as He establishes Your kingdom in and through me. Amen.
