“Pray For Missionaries”
Tuesday, April 22, 2025Key Verse
“And for me, that utterance may be given unto me, that I may open my mouth boldly, to make known the mystery of the gospel, For which I am an ambassador in bonds: that therein I may speak boldly, as I ought to speak” (Ephesians 6:19-20).
Text —Ephesians 6:18-20
Message
The call to share the Good News of the Lord is great. It can be heavy at times, especially when the harvest is great. Missionaries need our prayers, encouragement, and support more than ever. The work of missionaries is imperative to share the gospel to every corner of the earth, so that all may come to know the truth of God in their own hearts. We may not all be missionaries, we may not all sponsor missionaries, but we can all pray for mission work and missionaries.
As part of our duties, we need to pray that the hearts they meet would be willing to hear and receive the life-changing truth of Jesus Christ, and that all doors that have been hitherto closed to the gospel may swing open by the influence of the Holy Spirit. We need to pray that our missionaries will stand before people not fearing their tough stance against the gospel. We should pray to lift up missionaries who are discouraged to receive reassurance and comfort from God and for protection and provision for their families.
