Pause: A Month of Prayer in Five Minutes a DaySample

Proclaim

“Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God.” (Phil. 4:6)

Prompt

God is always calling us to go deeper with Him - deeper in prayer, deeper in dependence, deeper in faith, generosity, and boldness.

In Luke 5:4-11, Jesus asks us to launch out into the deep! Because spiritual leadership will never thrive in the shallows. A life going deeper with Jesus requires courage, vulnerability, confession, repentance, and dedication to living in a community.

When you submit to God’s call and vow to go deeper, there can be some anxiety! Especially if you look at it with earthly eyes. But when you take it to your knees in prayer, you can look beyond the Big and see what God sees.

The reward is worth it.

Prod

Jesus has written a deep launch on your heart. What is it? What steps do you need to take to make it a reality?

Pray

Jesus, give me the courage to launch out into the deep today because I know that wherever I go, you go with me. There is nothing that compares to your love, there is nothing that compares to your protection and nothing that compares to your friendship. Please give me the courage to take my faith deeper with you today. Amen.
