40 Days With the Risen LordSample
An Apostle Called by the Risen Lord
A Prayer
Gracious God,
We fall down and worship you, King of kings. We want to thank you for your patience. We will trust you, and know that you always keep your promises. We know that you are coming again. Let us die to self and live for you. Let us know more fully the love that sets us free.
Give us the courage to speak the truth in love. Help us to tell this world you are not some fairy-tale. You are the God who came to live amongst us, died and rose again. You love us so much. I want to thank you for your patience, even with the hardest of hearts. Amen.
Journal Exercise
Saul was told that he was chosen by God to carry Christ's name before certain people, and that he must suffer for Christ's sake. Write a prayer which includes the names of two people to whom you can carry Christ's name. Ask God to save these people.
Do you know someone who despises Christianity? Write a prayer earnestly asking God that he might reveal Christ to him/her.
A Plea
Pray for the unreached people groups that have no missionaries working amongst them, especially the home of the largest Muslim population in the world. Pray for Indonesian Christians that they may have the courage to proclaim Christ in their nation.
A Challenging Prayer
Pray that God's people, in submission to the Lord Jesus Christ and his command to make disciples of all nations, will take further initiatives to penetrate structures of society beyond the reach of the local church with the gospel.
