The disciple gives witness about these matters

Tell the truth about what you know and keep the record accurate

Shape the message to sound impressive so people will listen

Wait to speak unless your witness can never be questioned

Add colorful details to make the account feel stronger

If you would like to receive Jesus, pray this with me: Lord Jesus, I admit that I have sinned and need your mercy. I cannot save myself. I turn from my sin and trust that you died for me and rose again. I believe your witness about yourself is true. I confess you as my Lord, and I open my life to you. Lead me in your truth. Amen.

Receive the True Witness

Lord, revive your church to be a people who speak truthfully about you. Where we have been careless, fearful, or vague, give us courage, clarity, and love for what is true. Let our lives support our words, and let our witness draw many to trust you, in the name of Jesus. Amen.

Revive Us to Be Honest Witnesses

Give thanks for the disciple's faithful witness, for the written account that has been preserved, and for the confidence that the message is trustworthy. Thank God that he does not leave us with rumor, but with a true account that can be received with faith.

Thank You for a Reliable Testimony

Pray by naming one place where you need clearer judgment about what is true. Ask God for honesty, for protection from exaggeration, and for the grace to receive a faithful account with humility.

Pray for Clear Judgment

Pray for someone who is hesitant to trust: ask God to place faithful testimony before them, to give them an open heart, and to use honest words and consistent lives to point them to Christ.

For Those Needing a Credible Witness

Lord, make me careful with my words, truthful in what I repeat, and humble when I do not know enough. Keep me from twisting your truth or adding to it for effect. Let my life agree with the witness I give, in the name of Jesus. Amen.

Make My Words Dependable
