Life-Giving Truth

 

 

How was your week of loving people?

 

Do you sense God changing the way you view love, and what it means to give it?

 

Truth: Prayer is the Work

 

 

At the heart level, how do you feel about prayer?

-       It’s powerless, not sure why we do it

-       It’s a nice way to help us feel connected to God, but I struggle with weather or not it actually does anything

-       I don’t really believe it does a whole lot, but I force myself to do it anyway

-       I believe in it, and have seen the power of it to change lives

-       Something else?

 

 

Read Matthew 9:37-38

Read John 6:44

 

What do these two passages have in common? Where do they put the power? Why is that a good thing?

 

Why is prayer so vital in the life of someone intentionally practicing the value of immersion?

 

What might happen if prayer doesn’t stay the focus in immersion?

 

How have you sensed the power of prayer to change lives in the past year?

 

Does your life show that you believe prayer is as powerful as scripture tells us it is?

 

What do you think keeps you from really diving into it as a lifestyle?
