Paul’s openings in his letters to churches we find in the Bible are so full of rich and powerful prayers!
Using them as a backbone for praying can be such an effective way to deepen your prayer life and to ground your requests in Biblical truth.
Join me in praying for our churches – Let’s pray all this month using this prayer framework from 1 Thessalonians.
To the Lord
I thank You, Lord, for your work in my church (vs 3)
For all the work produced by faith
For all the labor prompted by love
For all the endurance inspired by hope in Jesus
Lord, You get all the praise, full stop!
To those who come in contact with someone or some ministry of the church
May the good news come to every last person! (vs 5)
And may it come with power, with the Holy Spirit, and with deep conviction
To those in the church
May we all become imitators of the Lord (vs 6)
May we become a model of love and joy, even in the midst of suffering (vs 6-7)
May our faith in the Lord be known; may it ring out everywhere (vs 8)
