How to Pray for Your Missionaries

Tue, 26 Aug 2008 11:07:03 -0400

The apostle Paul was a man of prayer. He prayed for his many converts and for the new churches established under his ministry. He also asked those that were believers to pray for him. He wrote to the Corinthian believers, " ... you help us by your prayers " (II Corinthians 1:11). He literally begged believers to pray for him. "I urge you, brothers ... to join me in my struggle by praying to God for me" (Romans 15:30). Pray For Open Doors - "Devote yourselves to prayer, being watchful and thankful. And pray for us, too, that God may open a door for our message, so that we may proclaim the mystery of Christ..." (Colossians 4:2,3)

Pray For Boldness In Witnessing - "Pray also for me...that words may be given so that I will fearlessly make known the mystery of the gospel..." (Ephesians 6:19)

Pray That The Word Of God Will Have Free Course - "Finally, brothers, pray for us that the message of the Lord may spread rapidly and be honored." (II Thessalonians 3:1) Pray For Protection - "Pray that we may be delivered from wicked and evil men, for not everyone has faith." (II Thessalonians 3:2) Pray Their Ministry Will Be Accepted By Believers - "Pray...that my service (ministry) in Jerusalem may be acceptable to the saints." (Romans 15:31) Pray For Divine Guidance And Assistance In Travel - "Pray...that by God's will I may come to you with joy…" (Romans 15:32) Pray For Refreshment - "Pray… that I may, together with you, be refreshed." (Romams 15:32b)
