"Finally, pray for us, brothers, that the Lord's message may spread rapidly and be honored, just as it was with you, and that we may be delivered from wicked and evil men, for not all have the faith."
-2 Thessalonians 3:1-2.
I've been asking not only for financial support to go to New York City, but more importantly for support through prayer. I read the verses above last night before I went to bed and realized this is exactly what needs to be prayed--not only for me, but for every missionary.
The whole reason I'm going to New York is to spread the Gospel so that people's lives will be changed eternally. If this trip isn't bathed in prayer, chances are: it's not going to be very advantageous.
If you would like to support me and other summer/full-time missionaries through prayer, here's a quick list of things that you can pray for:
- Safety getting there
- Safety while there
- Opened hearts
- Lives to be changed eternally, for the Glory of God
- Boldness to share the Gospel
I can't say it any better than this sermon jam by Matt Chandler. Watch and listen! It's great.
