He has seen it personally and now bears witness to it.

He heard it from other people and is repeating their report.

He is still waiting for proof before he speaks.

He studied it like an expert and is giving his opinion.

Speak from what you have truly seen and point people to Jesus honestly.

Repeat a powerful story you heard, even if you cannot say it happened to you.

Stay silent until you have no unanswered questions at all.

Turn your personal impressions into claims everyone else should accept.

If you would like to receive Jesus, pray this with me: Lord Jesus, I confess that I have sinned and turned from your ways. I cannot save myself. I believe you died for my sins and rose again. I turn from my sin and trust you as God's chosen one and my Lord. Forgive me, come into my life, and lead me in your truth. Amen.

Receive God's Chosen One

Lord, revive your Church to see Jesus clearly and to testify about him with courage and humility. Where we have been quiet, confused, or afraid, give us clean hearts and steady eyes. Make us faithful witnesses to your chosen one in a world that needs true light, in the name of Jesus. Amen.

Make Your Church a Faithful Witness

Thank you for the gift of eyewitness testimony and for making Jesus known through faithful witness. Thank you that the truth about your selected one does not rest on rumor but on sure witness. Teach us to receive such testimony with gratitude.

Thank You for Clear Testimony

Pray by naming one area where your view of Jesus feels blurry. Ask God to help you see him more clearly, to replace rumor with trust, and to give you words that are honest about what you know.

Pray for Clear Sight

Pray for one person who knows many opinions about Jesus but not yet his goodness. Ask God to open their heart, send them a trustworthy witness, and use your life and words as part of that testimony.

For Someone Hearing Many Opinions

Bring these before God: a desire to speak truthfully about Jesus, courage to tell what you have truly seen in him, and humility to say only what is true.
