Things they know from settled understanding

Wait for a more entertaining sign before listening

Assume it is false unless it flatters you

Listen only if it already matches your assumptions

If you would like to receive Jesus, pray this with me: Lord Jesus, I admit that I have sinned and have not always received your truth. I turn away from my sin and my self-rule. I believe you died for my sins and rose again. I receive your witness, trust you as the Son of God, and confess you as my Lord and Savior. Amen.

Receive the True Witness

Lord, revive your church to speak what is true, to bear faithful witness to what you have shown, and to welcome your testimony with humble hearts. Forgive us for careless words, half-listening, and stubborn refusal. Make us a people who listen well and speak well of Jesus, in the name of Jesus. Amen.

Make Us Faithful Witnesses

Father, soften me when your truth reaches me. Keep me from dismissing what is clear just because it is hard, and give me a heart ready to receive what is right. Teach me to listen, believe, and obey, in the name of Jesus. Amen.

A Teachable Heart

Pray by naming one truth you are tempted to ignore. Ask God to help you receive it with humility, then ask for one practical step that shows you are taking it seriously.

Pray Before You Decide

Thank God for truthful testimony, for people who speak from what they know, and for Jesus whose witness is faithful and sure. Give thanks that God does not leave us with rumor, but speaks clearly.

Thank You for Honest Witness

Pray for anyone who has not yet received Christ's testimony. Ask God to open their heart, remove suspicion, and place them where faithful witness can be heard and believed.
