I sincerely believe that you have no buisness talking to a people about God when you have not spoken to God about the people. We are called to serve God before the people and serve the people before God. A tearless preacher ends up a soulless preacher. Let us arise and minister before God before ministering to the people.
Let us pray!
Pray for all men and for people in authority
1 Timothy 2:1-4 KJV
[1] I exhort therefore, that, first of all, supplications, prayers, intercessions, and giving of thanks, be made for all men; [2] for kings, and for all that are in authority; that we may lead a quiet and peaceable life in all godliness and honesty. [3] For this is good and acceptable in the sight of God our Saviour; [4] who will have all men to be saved, and to come unto the knowledge of the truth.
- Pray that God will remove every blindness cast upon the eye of their understanding by the powers of darkness.
- Pray that the glorious light of the gospel shall shine to them.
- Pray and break up the fallow grounds of their hearts; to remove harness and thorns. Pray that God will prepare hearts before we get there.
Pray that the Lord will send laborers into the field.
Luke 10:1-2 KJV
[1] After these things the Lord appointed other seventy also, and sent them two and two before his face into every city and place, whither he himself would come. [2] Therefore said he unto them, The harvest truly is great, but the labourers are few: pray ye therefore the Lord of the harvest, that he would send forth labourers into his harvest.
- Pray that God will send faithful, able, and spirit filled men into the bravest to work the field of souls
- Pray that God will send me and women who are willing to seperate themselves for the sake of our hearers.
- Pray that God will grace those he calls and sends to help us. Pray!
Pray for the apostolic team and the church
2 Thessalonians 3:1-6 KJV
[1] Finally, brethren, pray for us, that the word of the Lord may have free course, and be glorified, even as it is with you: [2] and that we may be delivered from unreasonable and wicked men: for all men have not faith. [3] But the Lord is faithful, who shall stablish you, and keep you from evil. [4] And we have confidence in the Lord touching you, that ye both do and will do the things which we command you. [5] And the Lord direct your hearts into the love of God, and into the patient waiting for Christ. [6] Now we command you, brethren, in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that ye withdraw yourselves from every brother that walketh disorderly, and not after the tradition which he received of us.
- Pray the the word of God will have a free course with others as it is having in us.
- Pray that God will deliver the apostolic team from wicked and unreasonable men.
- Pray that God will establish and deliver us from evil.
Stay blessed!
