Truth: What Matters most is people finding Jesus

 

Based on your experience so far, how do you feel about the Pray & Watch Lifestyle? Why?

 

In what ways have you seen the Pray & Watch lifestyle impact your life? Do you sense the possibility that it could do even more for connecting you to the heart of God?

 

At this point, what do you think keeps you from really living out the Pray & Watch Lifestyle?

 

Read Matthew 13:44-46

 

Are you this excited about “The Kingdom of Heaven?” What creates excitement like this?

 

How would this kind of sold out passion for God’s kingdom change the way you view life? How would it change the way you view people?

 

Read John 6:44

 

Do you ever find yourself feeling guilty, or somehow responsible for saving people? What is the danger of that mindset?

 

Exercise

Everyone go around the room, and name one person that you find yourself praying the 5 second prayer for the most.

 

Share about your most recent interaction with them. What were the circumstances? How did it make you feel?

 

Did you walk away with a sense of expectation about the work God is doing?

 

Do you believe that even the smallest interaction is part of God’s plan to draw that person to himself?

 

Celebrate each story, no matter how small. Celebrate the smallest interactions, when you have them, remind yourself that nothing happens by accident. God is at work, and that is enough

 

Read John 12:32

 

If God is in fact doing that, shouldn’t we be more expectant about His work?

 

Spend the week reminding yourself that what matters most is people finding Jesus.
