This Is Us (Week Four) Egzanp

Day Three 

Welcome to our Daily Devotional for our new series This Is Us.  During this series we are going to journey through our Freedom Church DNA.  Some of you may know that DNA is like the secret code inside you – the thing that makes you, well, you!  You may also know that God created us in His image and wants us to live our best life.

This week we are looking at our Freedom DNA –  Raise the Next and Heart and Soul.  Let's start with Raise the Next, looking at how Jesus lovingly led His disciples and helped them to understand the importance of investing in others. 

Raise the Next

We lovingly disciple; we release leadership; we inspire kingdom influencers and plant new churches. We share the truths and opportunities given to us, changing the world through a legacy of multiplication. 

READ:

‘Jesus and the Children’ in the Beginners Bible (pages 409 - 412) or in Matthew 19, Mark 10 and Luke 18

Being a disciple means to learn from a teacher – a bit like we do at school. 

When teachers share with us what they have learnt, they are helping to Raise the Next. 

ASK:

Being a disciple of Jesus means that we get to learn from Jesus.  How do you think we can learn from Jesus each day?  

How can we share what we have learned with others and Raise the Next?  

REMEMBER:

So God created human beings in his image. In the image of God he created them. He created them male and female – Genesis 1:27

SAY:

God created me, 

Magnificent you can see. 

Every cell and part, 

Were designed in His heart. 

From the beginning of creation,

Every clan, tribe and nation. 

Made in His image, 

With purpose, love and to encourage. 

Whatever come what may, 

This is my DNA!
