Just Jesus: Answers For Lifeနမူနာ

Witnessing

To witness is to share your life of love. You don’t have to say or act a certain way. Formulaic thinking limits God. When you learn to live the life of Jesus, sharing your love for Him spontaneously in the most random circumstances, you will bear fruit. But the most fruit you’ll see is through purposely pouring your life into the lives of others, even when it’s inconvenient. Don’t let the devil deceive you into thinking what you say isn’t good enough. “Little” counts in God’s eyes. Even the smallest word or gesture in love can be the greatest witness someone needs. You don’t know what they are going through or how what you say will impact their life. Just be willing to show up, be present, and let God do the rest. One person plants, another waters, and God causes the growth.

Memory Verse

“...Behold, I am with you always, even to the end of the age.” Matthew 28:20b.

Declaration Prayer

I speak as one who speaks the very words of God. I serve with the strength God provides, so that in all things God may be praised through Jesus Christ. In my heart I set Christ apart as holy and acknowledge Him as Lord. I am always ready to give a logical defense to anyone who asks me to account for the hope that is in me, but do it courteously and respectfully. I will let the message of Christ dwell among my friends richly as we teach and admonish one another with all wisdom through psalms, hymns, and songs from the Spirit, singing to God with gratitude in our hearts. May my speech at all times be gracious, pleasant and winsome, seasoned with salt, so that I may never be at a loss to know how to answer anyone who asks me a question. I will go then and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them into the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe everything that Jesus has commanded me, and behold, He is with me all the days - perpetually, uniformly, and on every occasion, to the very close and consummation of the age. Amen - so let it be.
