Disciple-Maker's Vision

DAY 1 OF 40

Do you ever wonder why an all-powerful God bothers to work his plan through people like you? Hardly seems effective. Definitely not necessary. Especially if you're talking about the audacity of "saving" someone - surely that's Jesus' department alone.

While it certainly is the Savior’s ability that is required, it’s unmistakably your responsibility that’s requested and your availability that’s expected. Whatever his reasons are, God will keep working through people like you; so it might as well be you.

Today you'll encounter a vision of God's inaugurating inquiry of Isaiah in a moment at the throne. Place yourself in the same moment. Notice his volunteerism. Notice yours. Sift out with Jesus and yourself in your vision: "Am I volunteering to be a Disciple-Maker?"

About this Plan

Disciple-Maker's Vision

A Disciple-Maker life takes Disciple-Maker Vision. My growth, my Jesus, my discipleship has its place center stage, but it's not the only thing on the stage. No theater runs with a cast of individuals buried in their own script, waiting for their own queues. It takes cast members that see everyone else's part, see the props and pieces to hold, see the overall plot and the scenes that build it, see the audience whom all this is for, and see the director from whom all things come. It's the same with Jesus in the great dramatic unfolding of his kingdom come and his gospel for all. You probably started with fixating on your part, which is normal and expected. The time comes when you see the rest. Every Disciple is to become a Disciple-Maker. These next forty days are for shifting your Vision to that of a Disciple-Maker. More than nuggets of wisdom, this devotional aims to set you up with an open-ended dialog with Jesus. Be ready to sit in scripture and prayer long enough for something new to be formed with him.
