Actively caring for the student’s needs

We depend upon the Spirit to accomplish His purposes in the students through prayer.

God’s greatest work in His disciples will come about when we pray for God’s word to be done. God is then most able to pour out His Spirit because we know it is from Him. The evil one is bound, and the truth penetrates even the most hardened heart.

“Pray without ceasing” (1 Th 5:17).

D.L. Moody went to the roughest part of Chicago to reach out to the worst kids. He was out there to care for them and soon had the biggest ministry of such a kind. (Revival book)

VISION SHAPES MINISTRY

Student Focused

The teacher will focus on his students rather than himself. He will care for them. They will be more important than his material. Because of this, he shapes his material about so that the students are better served. He prays for the class because he cares.
