Be Faithful & Prayerful Disciples
With His gaze fixed in Jerusalem
Band the consummation of his
earthly ministry, Jesus intensifies
His final training of the disciples.
Stewardship is the central theme for
the disciples will soon be entrusted
with the message of the gospel.
Jesus outlines the duties of a servant
and underscores importance of
prayer that is persistent & humble.
Lord, thanks for lessons in Lk13-18
where U intensify training of the 12.
Help us be Compassionate to those
in need and have passion for the lost.
Help us Be Faithful Stewards.
Help us Look to You with Faith.
Help us Pray Persistently.
We seek your enabling so that we
can be Your worthy disciples. Amen
Lord, we will Be Faithful Stewards:
Use your worldly resources to
benefit others and make friends…
Unless you are Faithful in Small
Matters, you won’t be faithful in
large ones… (So), if you have not
been Faithful in the unrighteous
mammon, who will commit to your
trust the true riches? (Luke 16:9-11)
Lord, help me to be a Faithful
person, one who keeps my word.
Help me to live life by your Word
rather than by the way of society.
Help me to be a faithful steward
doing the work You call me to do.
Help me to Be Faithful in the Small
Things as worship before You. Amen.
Lord, we will Look to You with Faith:
And the apostles said to the Lord:
Increase our faith. So the Lord said:
If You had faith even as Small
as a mustard seed, You could say
to this mulberry tree: May you be
uprooted and thrown to the sea,
and it would obey you (Luke17:5-6)
Lord, Your Spirit will give us the
necessary faith and we need just
to act upon it. Help us to pray
with perseverance, trusting You
to move even things that look
immovable and impossible.
For faith come from looking at
God and not at the mountain.
In Jesus’ mighty name, Amen.
Lord, we will Pray Persistently:
One day Jesus told his disciples
a story to show that they should
always pray and never give up…
There was a widow; and she came
to the judge, saying: Get justice for
me from my adversary… And shall
God not avenge His own elect who
cry out day & night to Him(Lk18:1-7)
Lord, sometimes in prayer, we may
feel like the widow, being ignored.
Help us Lord to be like the widow
to keep knocking in spite of how
discouraged we may feel. For
prayer is not overcoming God’s
reluctance but laying hold of His will. And we’ll find our Father has
indeed heard. For Lord You are
cour hope and our salvation. Amen.
