Father, I’m praying for these (name them) who are serving in
\nministries or are on mission for You…<\/i><\/p>\n
There are many involved in every ministry and mission–some
\nwho go and some who serve locally. There are often those
\nbehind the scenes who help with planning, financial support,
\nand prayer, as I’m praying now. We’re all part of their service,
\ndirectly or indirectly, and I’m sure none of us feels worthy to
\nbe used in such a way. Yet this is one of the good works You’ve
\nprepared for us to do, and we’re grateful. (Ephesians 2:10)<\/p>\n
Help us to live worthy of such a calling; keep our hearts
\nprepared for the amazing things You plan to do. Give us
\npure hearts, sensitive to sin and willing to confess everything
\nYou bring to mind, knowing You are quick to forgive.
\nForgive us when we sin without being aware, and keep us
\nfrom sinning willfully. Help us not to let any sin rule over us.
\n(Ephesians 4:1; Joshua 3:5; Psalm 51:10; 1 John 1:9; Psalm 19:12-13a; Romans 6:11)<\/p>\n
Protect our time with You. Don’t let busyness keep us from
\nprayer or being in the Word daily. Help us to live according
\nto Your Word and not neglect it. (Matthew 6:6; John 17:17;
\nPsalm 119:9, 16)<\/p>\n
