100 Days to Go
Then Jesus came to them and said,
“All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me.
Therefore go and make disciples of all nations,
baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit,
and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you.
And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age.
Matthew 28:18-20
I urge you to live a life worthy of the calling you have received.
Be completely humble and gentle; be patient, bearing with one another in love.
Make every effort to keep the unity of the Spirit through the bond of peace.
There is one body and one Spirit, just as you were called to one hope when you were called;
one Lord, one faith, one baptism; one God and Father of all, who is over all and through all and in all.
Ephesians 4:1-6
The ETBU Family began this semester with our minds directed toward God’s Great Commandments: Love God, love others; and God’s Great Commission: Make disciples as you go.
November 25, 2020, is the last day of finals, and is 100 fleeting days after our first day of class. As we count down the days toward the conclusion of this semester, we carefully strive to make every day count. Christ is empowering us to love one another and is mobilizing us in that love to prayerfully go and make disciples. We have 100 Days to GO.
We go about our great commission in a way that is bold and charged and ready to go,
but also with a brokenness and vulnerability that points everything back to God. – Jada Edwards
No matter how many uncertainties lie within these 100 days to Go, no matter what is gained or lost, we know that the powerful and holy name of Jesus remains! And for this reason, we rely on no other. With Him all things are possible. Without Him we can do nothing. He is and has the provision for every petition.
- Ways to make the most of our Intercessory Prayer Initiative this semester
-
- Go into your prayer closet then into your world: Commit to be prayed up and ready to shine brightly as you Love God and Love Others. Share the concerns you carry or the insight you receive by emailing cjohnson@etbu.edu.
- Go to our Prayer Room: Commit to pray weekly or semi-monthly in the Intercessory Prayer Room located on the 2nd floor of Scarborough Hall. You may sign up today.
- Go for a Prayer Walk: Commit some of your routine steps to prayer-walk toward reconciliation and revival; confessing a deep dependence upon the Lord’s provision as we follow His lead to see the Great Commission Center come to life. You may join others by logging your steps each day or week. How much encouragement and how many prayerful steps could we accumulate and share as a community if we each do a little each day? *If sixty of us intentionally prayed for six minutes (about 500 steps) of each day for 100 days, we will have gathered 3,000,000 steps of faith in our good and gracious God.
