Free & Fit - Prayer & Petitions from Peter - Scripture, Prayer & Reflection on 1 Peter 5
Today’s Word is Heart!
Today’s Movement is Stretch & Pray for 15!
Today’s Verses are from 1 Peter 5!
“Shepherd and guide and protect the flock of God among you, exercising oversight not under compulsion, but voluntarily, according to the will of God; and not [motivated] for shameful gain, but with wholehearted enthusiasm;”
1 Peter 5:2 AMP
Reflection:
As we see others around us we are invited by God to seek to encourage, edify and enable our fellow Brothers and Sisters in Christ. When we often seek for change in the Church we look at the paid members of staff, the Pastor or maybe the young couple who just started on staff. What would happen instead if we asked God to raise up leaders from within our congregation?
The successful businessman or business lady inside of our congregation could be the next Christian leader to be the change we seek. What if instead of looking towards the existing over burdened team leads we are already stewarded by we chose to mentor someone in our congregation. Perhaps a youth member, a student or single person who would love to receive help, guidance and council from a fellow Brother or Sister. Instead of looking at the top, look to the side and find the person next to you!
As we explore and navigate through the week ahead let’s fix our eyes on Jesus, praying for the emerging leader within our congregation that he would like for us to raise up and to be the next person to lead the change we seek within our Church. All it takes is belief, time and investment in someone to help bring the necessary, required and intentional change you seek by praying, seeking God and petitioning heaven for this new leader! Don’t look to complain or explain away the need for change, pray for the person and being the change through mentoring others!
Tonight as we rest and tomorrow as we rise help us O Lord of Lord and King of Kings to seek for you to reveal to us a new person who we may encounter and encourage in their calling to serve you. Help us Lord to be your hands and feet to serve the next generation in Jesus name. Amen
Let us Pray…
Father help us to raise up leaders within the Church, to mentor, to help grow and share your word as we learn how you want us to bring change. Help us not to bring our own agenda, but to seek your good, perfect and pleasing will in all we do in Jesus name. Amen
Scripture Reference:
For who has known the mind and purposes of the Lord, so as to instruct Him? But we have the mind of Christ [to be guided by His thoughts and purposes]. [Is 40:13]”
1 Corinthians 2:16 AMP
