Paul is asking for prayer support. He wants the message of Jesus to reach as many hearts as possible, transforming lives along the way.
Finally, brethren, pray for us, that the word of the Lord may run swiftly and be glorified, just as it is with you. 2 Thessalonians 3:1
Paul wanted the Word of the Lord to spread rapidly and gloriously. He wanted their prayers like a mighty wind pushing the message forward.
Imagine if we approached our prayer life with the same passion.
When we pray with that kind of intentionality to share the Gospel, we become partners in the mission of God.
We join hands with Believers around the world, united in our desire to see the Gospel shared and lives transformed.
Take the words of Paul to heart. Be people of prayer, lifting not only our prayers but also the needs of the kingdom.
Pray for missionaries, pastors, evangelists, and all who labor to spread the Good News of the Gospel every day.
Pray expectantly, knowing that God can do far more abundantly than all we ask or imagine.
As we do, we can trust that the Word of the Lord will run swiftly and be glorified, touching hearts and changing lives wherever it goes. And that is a prayer worth praying for.
Heavenly Father, thank You for the privilege of prayer and taking our needs for ourselves and for others before You. We know You can do far more abundantly than I can ask or think. As I read Your Word and take Your own Words before You, I can know with expectancy That you hear and will answer prayer as I trust in You. Your Word is my guide, and I trust. Thank You, Father. I pray in the name of Jesus. Amen.
Pray Expectantly, Knowing That God Can Do Far More Abundantly Than All We Ask Or Imagine.
