NOW HOPE

DAY 2

“The earth has yielded its produce; God, our God, blesses us.”
‭‭Psalms‬ ‭67‬:‭6‬ ‭NASB1995‬‬

Planting seeds of hope in the expectation of a harvest

Psalm 67:6 (NIV) The land yields its harvest; God, our God, blesses us.

We all use the word ‘hope’ every day, without even really thinking about it. We say things like: ‘I hope it’s sunny tomorrow,’ ‘I hope there’s no traffic,’ ‘I hope this doesn’t take long.’ But did you realize that your level of hope today quite literally determines what’s going to happen in your tomorrow?

What do I mean by that? It might be easier to approach it from the opposite point of view. Take a moment to think about the word ‘hopeless’. When we say a situation is ‘hopeless’, we’re saying there’s no point in putting in further effort – that nothing will turn around, no matter what we do.

If someone says they are feeling hopeless in how they are living today, they’re saying that there is nothing for them to hang on to that’s going to draw them forwards. A loss of hope means you’ve lost your sense of meaning – there is no clear horizon that you’re traveling towards. It’s like they have lost sight of their ‘tomorrow’.

Think about it. A farmer plows the ground, plants the seed, waters the seed, and removes the weeds. Why all the hard work? Because he has the hope of a harvest. Without this expectation, he would not have committed to the cost or effort needed to cause the crop to grow. He would still be staring at the patch of dirt in front of him, not seeing the possibility it contained.

That is exactly what the enemy wants. He wants to rob you of your hope. He doesn’t want you to live for a new tomorrow, a greater horizon. He doesn’t want you to think about your harvest. He wants you to dwell on the possibility that you may experience a loss again like a previous season, where locusts devoured your crop before it could be harvested. But the successful farmer goes back, works hard, and commits – why? Because he’s got a hope – an expectation – that things are going to turn around.

The truth is, while we all have a potential harvest in our future, everyone experiences situations that challenge our hope along the way. But resilient hope – the kind that aligns our present perspective to our future reality – can bring a great harvest. It moves us beyond past disappointments, positioning our today in God’s tomorrow. When you start to understand hope in these terms, you’ll begin to realize that you’ve got a role to play in putting hope into action.

What is your level of hope right now? How can we grab hold of it better? Let’s keep journeying together and over the next few days we’ll explore some keys to unlocking activated hope in your life. For now, pray today’s verse over your life, and turn up tomorrow with an attitude of expectancy

NOW HOPE

DAY 1

“For I know the plans that I have for you,’ declares the Lord, ‘plans for welfare and not for calamity to give you a future and a hope.”
‭‭Jeremiah‬ ‭29‬:‭11‬ ‭NASB1995‬‬

Now Hope

Jeremiah 29:11 (NIV) ‘For I know the plans I have for you,’ declares the Lord, ‘plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future …’

I will never forget landing in Auckland as a 32 year-old with my wife Maree. At the time, we had three young boys, the oldest of whom was five, and had just left behind the security we had known in Australia for over 10 years. Six months earlier, we’d had clear sense of God’s call to start a church in New Zealand. Although this seemed far beyond our natural ability, we had responded with an unqualified yes, in the hope of seeing God’s harvest.

Almost 30 years on, LIFE has multiple campuses and large-scale impact both here in New Zealand and overseas. Yet establishment of this vision has not always been straightforward. The hope we carried deep down was challenged by many unexpected realities along the journey. I am convinced that we would not have experienced this harvest if we had not made the choice to activate our hope in the face of seemingly insurmountable odds.

Join me as we unpack what it means to cultivate the kind of hope that builds faith and brings a harvest in your life.

Paul De Jong

For I know the plans that I have for you,’ declares the LORD, ‘plans for welfare and not for calamity to give you a future and a hope.

LAUNCHING AND LEADING A NEW GOSPEL MOVEMENT

MOBILIZING THE NEXT GENERATION TO LIVE ON MISSION AND SHARE JESUS

DAY 21

“Therefore, my beloved brethren, be steadfast, immovable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, knowing that your toil is not in vain in the Lord.”
‭‭1 Corinthians‬ ‭15‬:‭58‬ ‭NASB1995‬‬

🔥 THIS IS NOT THE END

This may be the last day of this plan—but it’s not the end of the mission. What you’ve started matters. What you’ve built matters. And what God wants to keep doing through you at your school matters even more. The truth is, the hardest part isn’t starting—it’s staying consistent. Some weeks will feel strong, others will feel slow. Some gatherings will be full, others might be small. But this was never about numbers—it’s about faithfulness. Real movements are built by people who refuse to quit. Keep showing up. Keep inviting. Keep sharing the Gospel. Keep building the bridge. Week after week, God can do more than you think—if you don’t give up.

🚀 DAILY CHALLENGE

It's time to think big picture. What will it take to keep going week after week and year after year and not give up? Here are some ideas to keep yourself accountable.

Set recurring alarms or add your Gospel Movement to your calendar every week of the school year so you don't forget.
Recruit friends who can step up and lead your Gospel Movement on the weeks you are not able to show up.
Start training someone younger than you to keep the Gospel Movement going when you graduate and move on one day.
Remember that this Bible Plan will still be here for you next year when you re-launch if you need it.
If you want to stay committed and keep fanning the flame, challenge yourself to read through the Book of Acts on your own using the Bible App, and witness how God mobilized His people to live on mission and share Jesus - just like you! Check out a key verse below from Acts 1:8.

🙏 PRAYER

"God, thank You for everything You’ve done through this journey so far. Help me not stop now. Give me endurance to keep going, even when it’s hard or feels small. Remind me why this matters and who this is for. Strengthen my faith, my consistency, and my commitment. Use my life week after week to live on mission and share Jesus. I’m not done—I’m just getting started. Amen."

“So when they had come together, they were asking Him, saying, “Lord, is it at this time You are restoring the kingdom to Israel?” He said to them, “It is not for you to know times or epochs which the Father has fixed by His own authority; but you will receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you; and you shall be My witnesses both in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and even to the remotest part of the earth.” And after He had said these things, He was lifted up while they were looking on, and a cloud received Him out of their sight. And as they were gazing intently into the sky while He was going, behold, two men in white clothing stood beside them.”
‭‭Acts‬ ‭1‬:‭6‬-‭10‬ ‭NASB1995‬‬

Therefore, my beloved brethren, be steadfast, immovable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, knowing that your toil is not in vain in the Lord.

DAY 20

“And they overcame him because of the blood of the Lamb and because of the word of their testimony, and they did not love their life even when faced with death.”
‭‭Revelation‬ ‭12‬:‭11‬ ‭NASB1995‬‬

🔥 KEEP SHARING THE STORY

What God is doing in and through your Gospel Movement isn’t just for the moment—it’s meant to be shared. Every conversation, every invite, every step of obedience is part of a bigger story that points back to Him. When you take time to share what happened this week, you’re not bragging—you’re giving God glory. You’re reminding yourself that He is moving, and you’re encouraging others around the world to step out in faith, too. Don’t keep it to yourself. Build a habit of telling the story—because every story, big or small, matters when it points people to Jesus.

🚀 DAILY CHALLENGE

TAP HERE to share the story of what God did this week at your Gospel Movement. Your story might be exactly what someone else needs to hear.

Check out the photo below. This is a Gospel Circle led by a student in Central America. A Group of teenagers from Texas went on a mission trip in 2025 and taught young people in Costa Rica how to share their faith at school through Gospel Movements. Sharing your story multiplies the movement around the world!

🙏 PRAYER

"God, thank You for what You did this week. Everything good that happened came from You. Help me never take credit for what only You can do, but also help me always be willing to share the story of what You did. Give me a heart that always points back to You and gives You glory. Teach me to celebrate, reflect, and share what You’re doing. Amen."

DAY 19

“Obey your leaders and submit to them, for they keep watch over your souls as those who will give an account. Let them do this with joy and not with grief, for this would be unprofitable for you.”
‭‭Hebrews‬ ‭13‬:‭17‬ ‭NASB1995‬‬

🔥 TIME FOR ROUND 2

Here we go again. It's time to host your Gospel Movement for the 2nd week in a row! This is where consistency starts to build momentum. This is where a one-hit wonder becomes a weekly habit. It might feel easier this week—or maybe not. Either way, show up and be faithful. God moves through repetition and consistency!

🚀 DAILY CHALLENGE

It's been a week since you last led your Gospel Movement, so TAP HERE and take some time to review the Toolbox for your Gospel Movement type. Review the "Game Plan" tool for your movement type below as a reminder. Lastly, remember to share the Gospel no matter what! It's a non-negotiable.

🙏 PRAY

"God, I trust You again today. Here I am. Send me again! Move in hearts again. Let this not just be a repeat—but a deeper step for people. Amen."

DAY 18

“Abide in Me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit of itself unless it abides in the vine, so neither can you unless you abide in Me.can I am the vine, you are the branches; he who abides in Me and I in him, he bears much fruit, for apart from Me you can do nothing. If anyone does not abide in Me, he is thrown away as a branch and dries up; and they gather them, and cast them into the fire and they are burned. If you abide in Me, and My words abide in you, ask whatever you wish, and it will be done for you. My Father is glorified by this, that you bear much fruit, and so prove to be My disciples.so”
‭‭John‬ ‭15‬:‭4‬-‭8‬ ‭NASB1995‬‬

🔥 LEAD FROM OVERFLOW

Campus missionaries must lead from overflow: personal Bible study, prayer, confession, accountability, and character. You don't have to be perfect, but you are called to be a role model! Also, remember, you’re not meant to carry this alone. Your youth pastor isn’t just there for church gatherings—their purpose is to encourage you, guide you, pray for you, and help you grow as a leader. When you keep them in the loop, you gain wisdom, support, and covering that will help your Gospel Movement last. This isn’t about independence—it’s about partnership. You are not on your own in this… We’re better together!

🚀 DAILY CHALLENGE

Text your Youth Pastor today, and make sure to include one of your parents or another adult in the group chat. Give an update on how your Gospel Movement is going, what you need prayer for, and ask for any support you need going forward.

Check out this video below featuring different youth pastors sharing their hearts and hopes with you and your friends.

Remember to follow up on all your invites. Tomorrow is Round 2 of your Gospel Movement!

🙏 PRAYER

"God, thank You for the leaders and pastors You've placed in my life. Help me stay humble, teachable, and connected. Give me the courage to ask for help and the wisdom to receive it. Bless my youth pastor and use them to guide and strengthen me. Let this partnership help build something that lasts. Amen."

DAY 17

“and let us consider how to stimulate one another to love and good deeds, not forsaking our own assembling together, as is the habit of some, but encouraging one another; and all the more as you see the day drawing near.”
‭‭Hebrews‬ ‭10‬:‭24‬-‭25‬ ‭NASB1995‬‬

🔥 REMEMBER TO BUILD A BRIDGE

A Gospel Movement at school is powerful—but it’s not the finish line. It’s the doorway. The goal isn’t just to create a moment on campus, it’s to connect people to a place where their faith can grow long-term. That’s what the local church is for. It’s where students find real community, consistent teaching, discipleship, and people who will walk with them through life beyond their school era. What you’re doing at school creates the spark—but the church is where the fire keeps burning. Don’t just invite people to a gathering—invite the people who attend your Gospel Movement to join you in a local church family.

🚀 DAILY CHALLENGE

Ask your youth pastor or home church for invite material or information to pass out at the conclusion of your Gospel Movement this week for anyone who does not have a church they regularly attend.

If someone says, "I already have a home church," then encourage them to be faithful to show up to their existing faith community.

Below is a photo of a student named Greg. He got saved and baptized at a student-led Gospel Movement and now faithfully attends a local youth ministry. He even leads his own Gospel Circle at lunch in his school!

🙏 PRAYER

"God, thank You for what You’re doing through this Gospel Movement. Help me see beyond just this week and care about long-term growth. Draw students into a real community where they can know You deeper. Use the local church to build strong faith, real friendships, and lasting life-change. Let what starts here lead somewhere that lasts. Amen."
