Missional living is not self-powered or self-directed. It’s not about seeing a challenge, gearing up, and running toward it all on your own strength. That way lies sure disillusionment and even bitterness. Missional living is 100% empowered by the gifts of the Holy Spirit — his power, presence, provision, and perspective. In this 5-day plan, we’ll look at how the first disciples and apostles learned to live missional lives shaped by the gifts that Jesus gave them through his Spirit.

Join us on this journey to deepen your relationship with Jesus. This is part one of eight in the "Jesus, I Need You" series by Thistlebend Ministries. See also Jesus, I Need You (companion prayer).

This week, I want to help you become someone’s miracle! Don’t listen to this lying voice that suggests that the world would be much better without you...it’s not true! You can be a blessing to your family, your friends, your coworkers. You are the channel through which the Lord desires to flow into their lives and hearts. You are God’s choice, and your life counts!

The Great Commission is the most important mission a Christian can ever embrace. It’s a holistic mission encompassing careers, sports, entertainment, relationships, eternity, mental health, science, government, law, and education. Have you said “Yes” to the Great Commission? Will you go, give, serve, teach, and love?

Are you going through something life-changing? Are you stressed about what these changes may bring? In this 6-part devotional series, Pastor Jim Cymbala addresses the stress, fears, and concerns that can arise with the changes we go through in our lives, especially in these uncertain times.

Do you wonder what you bring to the table? Why God would or could choose you? If you ever doubted you have something to offer to God, and to others, that ends today! Be encouraged that you are a miracle, and you can share your miracle with others.

As Christians, we are called to courage. To face circumstances and situations that are uncertain, maybe painful and possibly surrounded by fear. But the amazing thing is, we do not do this alone, and we do not take the step of courage ill-equipped. We can step with confidence trusting that God has already triumphed. In this plan, we explore courage and the faithfulness of God.

We all have and know fear. But how do we manage to not let fear take control of our everyday lives when we face new challenges? That's what I'd like to look at together with you this week...I pray it brings positive change into our lives!

The Great Commission is Jesus’s call to each of us to spread the gospel to all people. At the time of this commission, there were approximately three hundred million people on Earth. Today, there are more than eight billion people. How will we ever reach them all? Dr. Billy Wilson’s The Power of One offers a path to do just that: One person at a time.

Fueled by his earnest love and desire for Jesus, California-based worship leader, songwriter and blogger Tim Timmons draws upon scriptural and personal resources in his 7-day Reading Plan for The Overflow Devo on YouVersion. As with his music, Timmons’ sole objective is to draw people into the awakening movement of Jesus Christ. Consistent with the theme of his Reunion Records debut album, “Cast My Cares,” Timmons explores not only what it means to believe in Jesus, but also what it looks like when we choose to truly following Him.
