12 Short Devos You Can Share With Your Volunteer Team

As a children's ministry leader, one of your responsibilities is investing in your volunteers. You should invest in them spiritually. Practically. Emotionally. The spiritual investment is to help them grow spiritually. To help them mature in their faith and grow closer to Jesus. The practical investment is to help them grow in their practical ministry skills. The motivational investment is to encourage and motivate them as they serve. I recommend rotating between these three types of devos. The devos can be done through pre-service huddles, emails, YouTube videos, Facebook, etc. I am going to give you 4 in each category. Feel free to use any of these for your ministry. Spiritual Devos (help them grow spiritually) Devo 1 - The Key to Being Used by God Key verse - "Paul, a servant of Christ Jesus, called to be an apostle, set apart for the gospel of God." Romans 1:1

• Paul was first and foremost a servant of Jesus.

• Are you willing to serve others and put others before yourself?

• The way up is down in God's kingdom.

• As you serve others, you are setting yourself up to be used by God in a mighty way.

Devo 2 - God at Work Key verse - “And we know that all things work together for good to those who love God, to those who are the called according to His purpose.” Romans 8:28.

• Trouble, trials and tragedies are part of life. They are not good, but God will use them to bring something good to pass.

• Trust God and hang onto Him when you are going through rough times.

• No matter how horrendous the trial, God will bring something good out of it.
