Disciple's Prayer

DAY 1 OF 8

1. Glory

The word “glory” can be so over-used that it become useless. God’s glory was not useless to Jesus. Glory is woven throughout this prayer. Jesus glorifies the Father (John 17:4) and asks the Father to now glorify Him (John 17:5). 

Father, help the men and women I’m discipling live for Your glory and not for their reputations.

Here are eight words to help you pray for your disciples.
