Pray for...


“Now I urge you brethren, by our Lord Jesus Christ and by the love of the Spirit, to strive together with me in your prayers to God for me, that I may be delivered from those who are disobedient in Judea, and that my service for Jerusalem may proved acceptable to the saints; so that I may come to you in joy by the will of God and find refreshing rest in your company. Now the God of peace be with you all. Amen.” Romans 15:30-33

Some are called to go into remote and dangerous mission fields, and some remain behind with a different call. A call to pray. No matter where we are the prayers of others strengthens us. If you find yourself drawn to a mission field, pray for those who are there, knowing His plan is perfect and He loves to hear the thoughts of His children about others. And all of His children need to be supported by prayer.

“’Ask, and it shall be given to you; seek and you shall find; knock, and it shall be opened to you. For everyone who asks receives, and he who seeks finds, and to him who knocks it shall be opened.’” Matthew 7:7-8

Take care to know God’s Word, your servant and friend in Christ, Darlene
