Huddle: May 11th
Here is the basic structure of this gathering:
Adore Jesus (Revelation 5)
Pray for Harvest and Laborers (Matthew 9)
Pray for boldness (Acts 4)
Pray for one another
Upward–how is your relationship with Jesus?
Inward–how are you developing as a leader? How are you loving your family?
Outward–who are you discipling? Time for “troubleshooting”
Here’s how to do it:
Adore Jesus: Read Revelation 5, sing a song or two together with a time of adoration prayer in between
The group leader should open with a SHORT prayer so everyone else knows what to do.
The focus of this prayer is on worshipping Jesus for his character and his work in your life. This is not a time for requests, that will come later.
Give lots of time for everyone to take a turn or 2 or more, allow for lots of silence. As the leader end when everyone seems finished.
Pray for the Harvest and Laborers: Read Matthew 9:35-38
Ask everyone in the group to share at a person on their heart and offer an update on each person.
Have someone in the group write down the names of each person mentioned.
Pause to offer counsel and discussion as necessary
Divide the list among the participants.
Pray for Boldness: Read Acts 4:23-31
Option 1: pray the same prayer in the book of Acts (but update it to your current life)
Option 2: ask for a few volunteers to pray for the group
Option 3: ask for each group member to pray for another member
Pray for One Another:
Have each person give updates on the main three categories and then have someone else in the group pray for them when they finish sharing
Pause to offer counsel and discussion as necessary
