INTRO: Who in your life do you believe has made an impact vs. evil?

AGENTS OF REDEMPTION
What would it mean to be an agent of redemption in Jesus’ Kingdom?

TO LOSE OR TO HIDE
How has the problem of sin left us corrupt and distorted?

JESUS’ SAVING PRESENCE
In what ways did Jesus come to us precisely as salt and light?

YOU CAN PRAY WITH US …

1. Worship the LORD for His holiness. Praise Him, Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, for the splendor of His purity and goodness.

2. How have you lived, making room in your heart for corruption and lies? Confess your rot and darkness to Jesus, asking Him to save you, purifying you and filling you with the Truth of His Word.

3. Give thanks to Jesus for His work to solve both problems of our sin – our guilt and our deadness. Thank Him, that vs. evil, He cleanses you to His standards of purity and fills you with His holiness and Light.

4. Who do you know that is corrupt and untrue? Pray for them, asking the Lord to have mercy on them just as He has had mercy on someone as corrupt and untrue as you.

5. Ask the Holy Spirit to work into you greater integrity. Pray for purity of heart, endurance in learning Scripture, courage to put away lies (and philosophies of life built on untruths), and for love of what is good!
