You
Are Helping Us
By Praying For Us.
Praying for someone may seem like a small thing. You may think that your prayers for others don’t do much good. Well according to God’s Word your prayers and my prayers when they are for someone else are super powerful! God loves to answer our prayers!
Scripture
11 And you are helping us by praying for us. Then many people will give thanks because God has graciously answered so many prayers for our safety.
Observation
Praying
for someone may seem like a small thing. You may think that your prayers for
others don’t do much good. Well according to God’s Word your prayers and my prayers
when they are for someone else are super powerful! God loves to answer our
prayers!
I
pray for some folks it seems like everyday. I try to pray for my family, for
Kathy, my kids, and my grandkids everyday. I pray for my nephew Jonathan who is
in a coma and his Mom who takes care of him 24/7 everyday. And I pray for some
of you that read this little blog every time I see your name.
I
believe that “intercession” for others is our biggest task while we are here on
earth. In fact, it is one of the two most important tasks that God has given
us. Our main job is sharing the Gospel and our second task is interceding for
others.
Who needs our help today? Who needs for us to pray for
them?
Application
I
will keep praying for people as the Lord puts them on my heart because I know
that He wants to work in their lives and He wants to answer my prayers.
Prayer
Heavenly
Father, You have given me so many verses about how important it is to pray. I
know that You hear me. Don’t let me give up. Don’t let me stop praying for
people even though I don’t see their lives changing yet. Don’t let me give up
on praying for those who are sick. Don’t let me give up on praying for those
who need a personal relationship with You. Don’t let me give up on praying for
friends who are living lives of disobedience and who need to repent and come
back to You. I hold on to Your Word today. I believe what You say about prayer.
I know that You want me to pray for those around me. Hear my prayer Lord and
help them!
