The chief priests and the scribes from among the people

The disciples and the women who followed Jesus

Ask trusted, Scripture-aware people an honest question

If you would like to receive Jesus, pray this with me: Lord Jesus, I confess that I have sinned and tried to live by my own wisdom. I need you as my Lord and Savior. I believe you died for my sins and rose again. Turn my heart toward you, forgive me, and lead me to follow you with truth. Amen.

Receive the Christ You Seek

Lord, revive your Church to seek Christ with humility and earnestness. Where we have grown casual, self-assured, or inattentive to your word, stir us again to ask, listen, and obey. Make us a people who help one another find your Son and point others to him, in the name of Jesus. Amen.

Wake Your Church to Seek Christ

Pray by naming one decision where you need to know what is true, ask God to lead you to the right counsel, and ask him to show you the next faithful question to ask.

Ask for Clear Direction

Thank God for people who can help us seek Christ honestly: leaders, teachers, and friends who will not leave us with guesses. Thank him that he can guide us when we ask with a willing heart.

Thanks for Wise Counsel

Pray for pastors, teachers, and other believers to answer questions with truth, patience, and humility. Ask God to make them faithful guides who point people to Christ rather than to themselves.

For Teachers Who Point to Christ

Lord, make me humble enough to ask good questions instead of pretending I know everything. Lead me to seek Christ carefully, listen well, and receive truth gladly, in the name of Jesus. Amen.

A Humble Heart That Asks
