Who’s Your One? A 30-Day Student Devotionalનમૂનો
Jesus Is Our Great Need
To what then should I compare the people of this generation, and what are they like?
Luke 7:31, CSB
See if you can relate to this scenario:
Person 1: “Are you hungry?”
Person 2: “Yes, I am.”
Person 1: “What are you hungry for?”
Person 2: “It doesn’t matter. I will eat anything.”
Person 1: “How about hamburgers?”
Person 2: “No, not hamburgers. Anything but hamburgers.”
Person 1: “Ok, how about pizza?”
Person 2: “No, not pizza either!”
We’ve all been involved in situations like this! Often, we know we want something, but we’re just not sure what it is. Many times, we know that we need change, but we don’t like the answers to our problems.
What did Jesus have to say about His generation? He pretty much tells them that they have no idea what they want. He said, “For John the Baptist did not come eating bread or drinking wine, and you say, ‘He has a demon!’ The Son of Man has come eating and drinking, and you say, ‘Look, a glutton and a drunkard, a friend of tax collectors and sinners’” (Luke 7:33–34)!
Often, we come across people who are exactly the same way as these Pharisees were. In fact, you may have been like this many times in your life. Your one may know that they have a certain problem—they may even want to be set free from it—but they don’t like the answer to the problem or what it takes to overcome it.
PRAY: Spend some time praying and thanking God that He is exactly what you need. He is the answer. He is our hope.
ACT: Start making a plan on how you’re going to have a gospel conversation with your one. Remember, just like Jesus is your greatest need; He is also their greatest need.

About this Plan
As a student, you’ve heard people say “you’re the future of the Church.” This is partly true; however, according to the New Testament, every Christian is the Church right now. You have purpose now—not just for the future. This devotional is designed to cultivate students' hearts to be the Church now by telling others about Jesus.
