07. Invest in the Few

  • Invest in the Few
    Scripture: 2 Timothy 2:2
    “The things which you have heard from me… entrust these to faithful men who will be able to teach others also.”

Jesus changed the world by deeply investing in twelve men. He did not begin with crowds—He built disciples. Real kingdom impact comes through multiplication, not mere mass appeal.

To change somebody’s world often means discipling one person deeply. Pour truth into someone who will carry it forward.

  • Depth often matters more than breadth.
  • Disciple-making multiplies impact.
  • Investing in one life may affect generations.

How This Changes My Life Day by Day

  • I look for teachable people.
  • I prioritize discipleship over popularity.
  • I invest time intentionally.
  • I think generationally.

What This Equips Me To Do

  • Make disciples effectively.
  • Multiply spiritual influence.
  • Build lasting kingdom fruit.

Prayer:
Lord Jesus, help me invest deeply in others. Make me a disciple who makes disciples. Let the truth You have poured into me be faithfully passed into another life for Your glory. Amen.
