Vision Weekend 2021 - Day 1
OPENING PRAYER:
Search my heart today God. Show me my sin that I may confess and turn to you. Thank you for forgiving me.
“Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age.” Matthew 28:19-20
REFLECT:
Wouldn’t it be wonderful if we could accomplish God’s plan of taking the message of Jesus to the world by doing exactly what we wanted to do? I would choose sitting on the couch in charge of the tv remote or vacationing continually around the world or maybe even devoting all my time to my favorite hobbies. However, to respond to God’s call to “Go” means to totally rearrange my life. My time must become God’s time so He can work through me. There is a cost in taking the good news of Jesus to all nations. We turn from our desires, priorities and schedules to carry out His desires, plans and assignments. What needs to go in your life so that you can respond to God’s “Go”!
APPLY:
Look at your personal and family’s weekly schedule. What needs to change so you can attend to more of God’s priorities and assignments. Choose one area that you could make a change in next week. Pray and ask God to give you the strength to follow-through.
CLOSING PRAYER:
Lord teach me to number my days that I would have a heart for you.
