Focused on Jesus in 2020 – Sept. 1

Remembering Jesus (What we talked about Last Week) 

We talked about how to be different, and avoid conforming to the things around us. We, instead, want to be conformed to the image of Christ. What are some benefits of non-conformance to the things of this world?

Depending on our Father like Jesus did (Prayer)

Prayer meeting is online tomorrow (Wed., Sept. 2, 8 pm). If you can, join prayer meeting Online – the link for the zoom meeting can be found here: http://cbcgl.org/ministries/youth-ministry/lyf/lyf-online/

Talking with God (Andrew Murray 183): “In prayer I must expect difficulties which can be conquered only by determined perseverance.”

 

What you can pray for:

  1. Your church – That we would serve each other, even while practicing “social distancing.” Pray for health and strength for church members. Pray for God to raise up a new youth pastor for our church. Pray that we would be about the business of making disciples of Jesus Christ!
  2. Your Youth Group – for students to grow in love and knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ, through the work of the Holy Spirit.
  3. Your Friends – for their lives to be grounded in, centered on, rooted in Christ. And pray for your non-Christian friends to know Jesus.
  4. Yourself – and your eternal (and immediate) needs, like being faithful in evangelism or knowing how to spend your time during the pandemic, or knowing how to be part of the solution to racism rather than being part of the problem.
