Reflection- Who is one person you care about that does not have faith in Jesus and what can you do to let God’s love shine through you into their life this week?
Discussion- What are simple acts of service and gestures of love we can extend to our neighbors that will help them see the presence of Jesus?
Prayer Direction- Make a list of three to five people in your life who are not yet followers of Jesus. Pray each day for: Their heart to grow soft, your life to reflect Jesus, and for opportunities to tell about your relationship with the Savior.
“Live It!” Challenge- Look at your weekly schedule and make sure you are spending time, on a regular basis, with people who are not yet in God’s family.
March Prayer Focus: Praying in Power. Continue praying against Satan’s strongholds and, in the power of Jesus’ Name, ask God to break them down. In particular, pray against addictions and fears that paralyze lives.
January-March: Continue trying new ways of fasting that will drive you to prayer and make you hunger more for God?
