Christmas in 3 Actsنموونە
Experience
Stone in your shoe.
Placing a stone in your shoe for the day will cause you some discomfort, but it can also act as a prompt. A prompt to pray for those who live out the ways of the kingdom in spite of the discomfort, trials, and persecution that comes their way.
Whether these are people known to you, or whether they are Christians who live in places that are under severe persecution, let the experience draw you closer to God and His people who live out the kingdom where they are.
Practice
Choose three countries that are listed as places where Christians are under persecution. Print off a world map and use this as a prompt to pray for those “fighting dragons” in these places. Search out news and info about these places and ask God to come as light in their darkness.
Question
How are you allowing Jesus to “renew you daily” (v 16)?
Prayer
I choose to welcome discomfort so that I may grow closer to You and others.
Scripture
About this Plan
In this Advent Infinitum Series, we will be using the themes of Tragedy, Comedy and Fairytale. They will act as doorways into a deeper understanding of surrender, generosity, and mission. Each theme lasts 7 days. The first day will be an introduction. Days 2 to 6 will give you a reading, an experience, a practice, a question, and a prayer. Day 7 is Sabbath, consolidation, review, and recollection.
