I read a book this week called Praying effectively for the lost. I plan on getting a copy for each family in our church. It was a very good Biblical perspective on how to pray for the lost. As I read it I was impressed with a greater urgency to pray for a number of people who I know need to come to the Lord.
As I prayed I also was impressed with the Scripture that admonishes us to pray the Lord of the harvest to send forth laborers into His harvest. If we are going to pray for our lost friends and family members to get saved, it only stands to reason that we should also pray for the one that God would send to reap such a harvest of their soul.
The longer I am in the ministry the more and more I am impressed with the absolute necessity of prayer. Truly we can accomplish nothing without Him, and there is no way to get His power and presence without prayer.
We finished up VBS last night with 107 kids in attendance, I am not sure about the number of decisions but I will let you know I find out.
Last night Bro. Don Steele's grandson Joshua was in a motorcycle accident last night. He was kept overnight for observation. He has a broken leg and some swelling on the back of his head. they may release him this morning. please keep Him in prayer.
