Paul’s Request

As Paul was closing out his second letter to the people of Thessalonica he made a request of them. He asked them to pray for him. Can you imagine the Apostle Paul asking you or me to pray for him?!  

Here’s what he asked them to pray: Finally, brothers, pray for us that the Lord’s message may spread rapidly and receive honor, just as it did with you; [source] Of all the things he could asked, of all the needs he may have had he asked that the LORD’s message spread rapidly and be received with honor. Wow! First and foremost on the mind of Paul was others hearing the Good News, the Gospel of JESUS CHRIST. 

Let us pray the same. That the LORD’s message will spread rapidly in America and around the world and be received with honor. 

Until Next Time ~ ~ ~ Kathie 

ABBA, we pray as the people of Thessalonica prayed, that Your Gospel will spread rapidly and be received with honor. I pray we will allow You to open our mouths and fill them with Your Gospel Message and our hands, our feet and our hearts be moved with compassion before our time runs out. Thank You for loving us. Thank You for Your Word that is alive and true. We pray to see people hear and believe in JESUS name.
