The Lord is soon coming. There are many that have not heard
the gospel of Jesus Christ that are unprepared. Jesus told his disciples that
the harvest out there of souls is truly great, but there are few labourers that
are bringing them the gospel.
"Pray ye therefore the Lord of the harvest, that he
will send forth labourers into his harvest." - Matthew 9:38
Living in these last days, we are in perilous times. There
are many temptations. Evil men and seducers are growing worse and worse. Those
of us who are living for God need one another’s prayers. Praying in the Spirit
is powerful praying. We should stay alert to pray for everyone and everything
that the Lord puts on our minds.
"Praying always with all prayer and supplication in the
Spirit, and watching thereunto with all perseverance and supplication for all
saints;" - Ephesians 6:18
With the turmoil that is going on today in the political
arena, we must remember to pray.
"I exhort therefore, that, first of all, supplications,
prayers, intercessions, and giving of thanks, be made for all men; for kings,
and for all that are in authority; that we may lead a quiet and peaceable life
in all godliness and honesty." - 1 Timothy 2:1-2
By keeping an attitude of prayer and being sensitive to all
that is going on around us, we can be used by the Lord to accomplish His will
on earth. Knowing the Lord is working through us, the cares and worries that
those in the world are weighed down with are for us replaced with God’s peace.
We can trust that Jesus is working everything out according to His purpose. Our
part is in everything to pray.
"Be careful for nothing; but in every thing by prayer
and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God.
And the peace of God, which passeth all understanding, shall keep your hearts
and minds through Christ Jesus." - Philippians 4:6-7
