A minister was praying at the bedside of a dying woman. “Wait a moment”, she said as she he started to rise from his knees. “I want to pray for you”. Very tenderly she prayed with her hands upon his head. “For ten years, ever since you became my pastor, I have offered that prayer for you every morning and night,” she told him. The minister went away with tears in his eyes and a strange warmth in his heart. He had known this woman was sweet-spirited and true, but never guessed that he had a place in her prayers day & night. “I wander how many of my 600 members pray for me,” he asked himself. Let us remember others in our prayers even as we want others to remember us.
James 5:16 says, “the prayer of a person living right with God is something powerful to be reckoned with.”
Always pray or intercede for each other. When you feel you have nothing left to say to God, pray for the church, its growth & effectiveness in the community, people’s health, financial freedom and many other everyday life applications.
Let’s pray and see the mighty hand of God at work and the heavens open as you pray in faith for one another.
God bless you. Love from your pastor, Daren.
