Boldness to fulfill the great commission

[Ink7]

I am a small group leader at my church and one of the goals I have for this year is to make more disciples as Jesus calls us to in Matthew 28. As an introvert, this have been difficult but this year starting today I pray that I may get the boldness to talk to people and share about the gospel. I pray that every person that I talk to if they do not know Jesus or have been so far from Him, that their hearts may soften and that they may receive salvation. I pray that I may grow my small group and lead every person to make disciples as well. I pray that I may have the strength and guidance to overcome any hindrances from the enemy to stop that from happening.

We commend you, ###, for your heart's desire to fulfill the Great Commission as commanded by our Lord Jesus Christ. It is truly a noble and biblical pursuit to make disciples of all nations, as outlined in Matthew 28:18-20 WEB: "Jesus came to them and spoke to them, saying, 'All authority has been given to me in heaven and on earth. Go therefore, and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all things that I commanded you. Behold, I am with you always, even to the end of the age.' Amen."

Firstly, let us address the issue of introversion. While it is true that introverts may find it challenging to initiate conversations with strangers, remember that God does not call the equipped, but equips the called. As Paul writes in Philippians 4:13 WEB: "I can do all things through Christ, who strengthens me." Trust that God will give you the strength and boldness to share the Gospel, as He has promised to be with you always.

Let us pray together:

Dear Heavenly Father,

We come before You, lifting up ### in prayer. Thank You for placing this desire in their heart to make disciples and fulfill the Great Commission. We ask that You would grant ### the boldness and courage to share the Gospel with those around them, regardless of any introverted tendencies. We pray that every person ### speaks to would have their hearts softened and be open to receiving the good news of salvation through Jesus Christ.

We pray for the growth of ###'s small group, that each member would be equipped and empowered to make disciples as well. We ask for Your strength and guidance to overcome any hindrances from the enemy that may come against this disciple-making movement.

In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.

As a small group leader, it is crucial to remember that your strength comes from the Lord. Continue to press into Him and rely on His power to overcome any fears or obstacles. Be encouraged by the promise in Isaiah 41:10 WEB: "Don't be afraid, for I am with you. Don't be discouraged, for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you. I will hold you up with my victorious right hand."

Lastly, we want to remind you that it is only through the name of Jesus Christ that we have access to God. As the Bible says in John 14:6 WEB: "Jesus said to him, 'I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father, except through me.'" Continue to share this truth with those around you, and may God richly bless your efforts to make disciples.

We're right there with you, ###, as you step out in faith to fulfill the Great Commission. It's amazing to see your heart's desire to make disciples, just as Jesus commanded us. We're cheering you on!

You know, it's not about being the most outgoing person, but about being obedient to God's call. Remember, God doesn't call the equipped, but equips the called. He's got you, and He'll give you the boldness you need to share the Gospel. As it says in 2 Timothy 1:7, "For God has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power and of love and of a sound mind."

Let's pray together:

"Dear Lord, we lift up ### to You. Thank You for the desire You've placed in their heart to make disciples. We ask that You would fill them with Your Holy Spirit, giving them the boldness and courage to share the Gospel with everyone they meet. We pray that every person they speak to would be open to receiving the good news of Jesus Christ.

We also pray for ###'s small group, that each member would be equipped and empowered to make disciples as well. We ask for Your strength and guidance to overcome any obstacles that may come their way.

In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen."

Keep trusting in God's power, and remember, you're not alone. We're here with you, and God is always with you, even to the end of the age. You got this, ###! Let's make disciples together.

Heavenly Father, we come before You with a humble heart, seeking the power and presence of Your Holy Spirit. We acknowledge that without Your Spirit, we are nothing, but with You, we can do all things through Christ. Lord, I ask that You pour out Your Holy Spirit upon this person in great measure. Fill her anew, that she may be empowered to live a life that reflects Your love, Your grace, and Your truth. Let Your Spirit guide her in every decision, lead her in all relationships, and strengthen her in weaknesses. Holy Spirit, come and stir up the gifts You have placed within this person. Help her to walk in Your wisdom, speak with Your words, and serve with Your love. May she bear the fruit of the Spirit in abundance—love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control. May she use these gifts to build up the body of Christ and to be a witness to the world of Your power and grace. Fill her with boldness to share the gospel and with humility to serve others. May Your Spirit empower her to live a life that brings glory to God and leads others to Jesus. Thank You, Father, for the gift of the Holy Spirit. We trust that He will lead this person into all truth and transform her from the inside out. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.
