Pray For Us

As for other matters, brothers and sisters, pray for us that the message of the Lord may spread rapidly and be honored, just as it was with you. And pray that we may be delivered from wicked and evil people, for not everyone has faith. But the Lord is faithful, and he will strengthen you and protect you from the evil one. We have confidence in the Lord that you are doing and will continue to do the things we command. May the Lord direct your hearts into God’s love and Christ’s perseverance.

2 Thessalonians 3:1-5

A missionary goes through a lot to spread the Good News. It may be a bad neighborhood, a language barrier, a bad home, stomach viruses, or even bad roadways. The language barrier can bring loneliness.

The apostle Paul experienced danger and hardship as a missionary. He was imprisoned, shipwrecked, and beaten. It is no surprise that his letters contained pleas for prayer.

Do you know people who need supernatural help as they spread the good news of Christ?

Intercede for others in prayer; God’s throne is always accessible.
