Prayer Call: The Lens of Jesus

Today's scriptures: John 4:7-14

7 When a Samaritan woman came to draw water, Jesus said to her, “Will you give me a drink?” 

8 (His disciples had gone into the town to buy food.)

9 The Samaritan woman said to him, “You are a Jew and I am a Samaritan woman. How can you ask me for a drink?” (For Jews do not associate with Samaritans.[a])

10 Jesus answered her, “If you knew the gift of God and who it is that asks you for a drink, you would have asked him and he would have given you living water.”

11 “Sir,” the woman said, “you have nothing to draw with and the well is deep. Where can you get this living water? 

12 Are you greater than our father Jacob, who gave us the well and drank from it himself, as did also his sons and his livestock?”

13 Jesus answered, “Everyone who drinks this water will be thirsty again, 

14 but whoever drinks the water I give them will never thirst. Indeed, the water I give them will become in them a spring of water welling up to eternal life.”

 

Prayer bullet points:

1. Speak and commune with people as Jesus did in verse 7.

2. Give love always: Don't allow the differences or rules/laws stop you just as Jesus didn't let the rules of Jews speaking to Samaritans stop him from speaking in Verse 8

3. Put on the lens of Jesus and look at others with the heart Jesus has for them. They're his children too
