During the FOLLOW sermon series, The Daily Fill devotional will consist of four days of the regular devotionals, and the 5th day (Fridays) will include a “practice” section to help you go a little deeper with the subject studied this past week.
________________
Every disciple of Jesus is sent, not someday, but today. One of the simplest ways to step into that identity is to reflect on the places and people already woven into your everyday life. You don’t have to add more activity to make disciples; you begin by paying attention to where God has already placed you.
The Spheres of Influence practice (CLICK HERE to view online) helps you name those relational spaces. These are the people you regularly interact with: family, friends, coworkers, neighbors, classmates, teammates, baristas, gym partners, and anyone else who consistently crosses your path. These relationships aren’t random; they’re part of God’s intentional design for how the kingdom spreads. As Jesus said, “You are the light of the world.” Light shines most naturally in the places it already lives.
This practice invites you to prayerfully map out these spheres. As you map your spheres, ask the Spirit to show you where He is already at work and how you might join Him. This isn’t about forcing conversations or creating pressure; it’s about becoming attentive, prayerful, and available. Influence grows through presence, compassion, and small acts of faithfulness over time.
The goal isn’t to “do more,” but to see differently; to recognize your everyday life as your mission field and to step into the quiet, steady work of loving people like Jesus.
