Today’s focus is a doozy. They want us to make a video of ourselves praying for someone and then sending it to them! That sounds exciting and scary and everything in between. Today’s verses: Philippians 2:3 and Colossians 1:9-12. Have a blessed day.
Step 12. Ok. You signed up for boot camp. If you haven’t been challenged yet, today is the day for you.
Yep. That’s the challenge. It may be uncomfortable. But for today, you can simply record the video. You don’t even have to send it.
Why record a video?
It’s a simple way of showing someone you are thinking of them and are willing to be vulnerable. Have you ever recorded an ordinary video of yourself?
Let today be the first of many days where you record a prayer and send it to someone you love. We haven’t ever received a video of someone praying for us, but we’re pretty sure we may get watery eyes when it happens.
If it’s too difficult for you, modify. Maybe voice memo would be an option you could choose.
Dear Father God,
Thank You God for Your amazing power. We want You to be Lord of our technology use. Give us courage to think of others above ourselves (Philippians 2:3), thinking of how we can be vulnerable and care for them. Who should we pray for? Give us courage to send them a video of us praying for them. In Jesus’ precious name I pray. Amen.
Philippians 2:3. Let nothing be done through strife or vainglory; but in lowliness of mind let each esteem other better than themselves.
Colossians 1:9. For this cause we also, since the day we heard it, do not cease to pray for you, and to desire that ye might be filled with the knowledge of his will in all wisdom and spiritual understanding; 10. That ye might walk worthy of the Lord unto all pleasing, being fruitful in every good work, and increasing in the knowledge of God; 11. Strengthened with all might, according to his glorious power, unto all patience and longsuffering with joyfulness; 12. Giving thanks unto the Father, which hath made us meet to be partakers of the inheritance of the saints in light:
