Disciple-Maker's Vision

DAY 12 OF 40

You've heard it said, "Preach the gospel at all times and when necessary use words." Well, words are necessary! You'll get to enjoy Paul's heart, prayer requests, and obsession today - all aimed at opportunities to have one more conversation about Jesus. He wanted more conversation opportunities. He wanted a seasoning with some kick on it for those conversation opportunities.

As you get yourself into these impassioned words from Paul for yourself, get really specific with Jesus about your heart for real conversations. Who do you wish you could talk to at a meaningful Jesus-topic level? What seasoning do you wish were on your words, for whomever you get to speak with next? Words matter for the one(s) in your circle that this Disciple-Maker journey is for. Follow Paul's lead in praying out the same heart for conversational opportunities. Hold one name and one conversation in your heart all week if you have to.

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.
