When we set out to Win the Day, often we are faced with daily challenges, and some of those come in the forms of our fears. Fears can be big, or small, but fear has the ability to cripple us if we don’t learn to overcome it, and we do that by taking one step at a time. Something we need to realize is that You have to take the FIRST STEP of faith, and then God reveals the second step.

Life happens every day, and we have to choose. Do we accept life as tough, or do we see it through a lens of victory? If we want to see change in our lives, we have to take a step and change our story. God is always working and moving, so do we give Him the reigns and let Him steer, or focus on the bad and become subject to our situation?

Jesus and Peter gave us an amazing example to follow by looking at several interactions between them when it comes to discipling someone. There is not one single way to make a disciple but there are specific things we must do if our disciples will become disciple makers themselves. Today we will be learning what to do once you’ve found someone to disciple… its something that ALL of us can do!

God has intentionally placed us around the people in our lives to share with them about Him. John 4 shows how Jesus did this in his encounter with the woman at the well, with truth and grace. We have the ability through Jesus to be equipped and empowered to take next steps with the people they have been praying for, and show them the truth about the God who loves them more than anything!

The first habit of a disciple maker is a vibrant prayer life. Whether you are a prayer warrior already or you struggle to keep your mind focused while blessing the meal, God will meet you where you’re at. Disciple Making is a spiritual activity that the devil doesn’t like and our greatest weapons are the Word of God and prayer. Today we will learn some practical prayer habits that are the first step from moving from the thorns of busyness to the fruitful good soil that produces a harvest.

We often know the process of being close to Jesus and making that jump, but sometimes it’s the first step that’s the hardest. As followers of Jesus we long for the “walk on water” moment, but before we ever get there we have to take the first step out of the boat.
