John 3:16 For God so loved the world that He gave
His only begotten son, that whosoever believes in
Him should not perish, but have everlasting life.
God loves the world... in Greek, that word is “kosmos”.
According to the internet, world population is
about...
7.456 billion...and growing daily.
A person is born about every second!!!!!!!!!
Before this message is done 2,400 babies will
be born!
Jesus came to die on the cross and be resurrected for
every person born!
God loves the world...but God loves the
(whosoever) ONE!
How men and women tick reveals this deep love and
care Jesus has for each person born.
Genesis 2:7
God creates people ONE AT A TIME.
Psalms 139:14-15
And then every person created has unique
individuality with God:
Psalm 139:16 (NLT) You saw me before I was born. Every day of my life was recorded in your book.
Every moment was laid out before a single day had passed.
God deals with every person one on one...
Psalms 139:17-18
Romans 3:23 (NLT) For everyone has sinned; we all fall short of God's glorious standard.
When God wanted His people back, He didn’t send a committee.
He sent ONE.
Romans 5:17
God loves everybody and His will is that EVERYBODY
be with Him eternally.
Matthew 28:18-19
God reaches the world by the obedience of the one.
It’s not just Pastor Josh’s job to reach the world.
It’s not just the staff’s job.
It’s all of our jobs.
Every one of us in the church (the body).
Remember, the power of One.
The process begins with a little communication tool
called...PRAYER.
Human prayer is the trigger to
move God
QUESTION: Can 1 person praying make a difference?
God will never barge in on people. He must be
invited.
Prayer is inviting Jesus into the affairs of
life.
Matthew 9:37-38
Prayer is the communication tool of heaven to get the
job done.
1.Prayer must be done in faith.
Jesus endorsed simple prayer.
Matthew 21:22 (NKJV) "And whatever things you
ask in prayer, believing, you will receive."
Mark 11:24 (NKJV) "Therefore I say to you, whatever
things you ask when you pray, believe that you
receive [them,] and you will have [them.]
But you have to do it.
How do you pray?
Claim one scripture.
For your family...
Acts 16:31
For others...
Ephesians 1:16-19
Pray diligently.
Romans 12:11 (NLT) Never be lazy (be diligent), but
work hard and serve the Lord enthusiastically.
2. Prayer changes people/prayer
changes you.
3. Prayer changes the world.
Mrs. Greer
God wants to use...you to change the world!

4. Bring them. Have them meet you and sit with
them.
5. Buy them Easter lunch. Invest.
