  2. What does it show me about people — and about myself?

    • What is the difference between praying in Jesus' name and using his name like a formula?
  3. What will I obey this week? (a concrete step, with a day)

    • What will you ask the Father in Jesus' name this week, and how will you watch for his answer?
  4. Who will I tell?

    • Who could you tell that access to God comes through Jesus' name — freely, for everyone who believes?

Grow

Growth is God's part, not yours. Do the cycle faithfully and trust Him to give the growth (1 Corinthians 3:6–7).

Pray

Jesus, you promised that whoever believes in you will do the works you did, and that you will do whatever we ask in your name. I come in your name alone — glorify the Father through my life.
