God, make us a catalyst for a movement that is so much bigger than ourselves!

I am blessed! The leadership of Jacob's Well excites me so much - to see students recognize their calling to live missional lifestyles and journey with others, both near and far, towards Jesus is a thrilling movement to be a part of.

My prayer is that God would make Jacob's Well a catalyst for a movement of missional living disciples of Jesus - that it wouldn't just be "the thing Jacob's Well does," but that it would begin with us, but not end with us. I pray that those following Jesus, both students and graduates, young and old, a part of organizations both Christian and not, would realize their calling to figure out what it looks like to be missionaries in their own context, in their dorms, houses, neighborhoods, apartments, campuses, and cities. I pray the movement begins, that more churches are planted, and that when those following Jesus realize their calling to adopt the posture of a missionary where they are at, their friends who aren't yet following Jesus would begin to follow Jesus, that those burned by the church would be transformed by the Gospel, and that a movement of God breaks out in Minnesota and in the western church like we have never seen.

God, this is my prayer, my cry, my passion. But we are powerless without the work of Your Holy Spirit, without you leading the way. It is only Your Holy Spirit that turns removes hearts of stone and puts in hearts of flesh, only Your Holy Spirit that transforms lives, only Your Holy Spirit that reaches down, pulls us out of the mess we're in, and saves us to a life of following Jesus we could never do on our own, a life more fulfilling and satisfying than anything we have ever imagined, a life not absent of hardships, but present with hope.

Holy Spirit, we need You. Move in Jacob's Well, use us as a catalyst for a movement of missional living disciples of Jesus.
