Episode Synopsis

4 Things We Know God Does in Disciple Making: 
Entrusts someone to us. (John 17:6,”I have revealed you to those you gave me out of the world. They were yours, but you gave them to me and they obeyed your every word.”)
 
Moves their heart. (Proverbs 21:1, “The king’s Heart is in the hand of the Lord, He directs it like a watercourse wherever he pleases.) 
 
Guides, Counsels, and Convicts from within through the Holy Spirit. 
(John 14:26, “But the Counselor, the Holy Spirit whom the Father will send in my name, will teach you all things and will remind you of everything I have said to you.” John 16:8, “...he will convict the world of sin and guilt in regard to sin, righteousness, and judgment.”)
 
Provides Growth.
       ( 1 Cor. 3:5-6 What, after all, is Apollos? And what is Paul? Only servants, through whom you came to believe--as the Lord has assigned to each his task. I planted the seed, Apollos watered it, but God has been making it grow.”)
 
2 Tim. 2:21 (“Those who cleanse themselves from the latter will be instruments for special purposes, made holy, useful to the Master and prepared to do any good work.”)
 
Takeaway: The work of making disciple makers is one that God shares with us. He will occasionally do it on His own, but it’s intended to be a collaborative work.
 
Action Step: Pray and Trust God to do His part in those you are discipling.
