pray!

pray!

 

"Now I urge you brothers, by our Lord Jesus Christ and by the love of the Spirit, to strive together with me in your prayers for me" (Romans 15:30)

Prayer is essential to the life of every Christian. As we commune with God and lift our requests and praises to Him, our desires begin to align more with His. Prayer is an essential component in accomplishing the mandate to "make disciples in all nations." We must remember to lift up the work of Christ in this world and to remember our brothers and sisters throughout the world who are giving their lives for the fulfillment of the Great Commission.

The Apostle Paul encouraged prayer for one another as he pleaded with fellow Christians in Romans 15:30. We need to lift each other up in prayer, especially those who are serving Christ for His glory. God gives us the privilege to pray for others, and He promises to hear our prayers.

We encourage you to pray for Christ's impact in each country of the world. Use the following link to access Operation World, an online resource that helps guide your prayers for every nation: operationworld.org.
