Praying for the Care of the Seeking Ones
Reminded of What Produced These Results
Wonderful reports keep coming in from teams from around the world. (See below for report #11) But as we draw near the end of this two-week gospel outreach, we are reminded that the blessings we have seen are directly related to prayer. Many saints in His Body have been praying day and night for many weeks, even months, before this time of sowing the seed of the gospel began. The results have been above what we have asked or thought.
Persevere to Pray
Now, however, we should be reminded that the ongoing care of all these newly saved ones and seeking believers will depend, just as much, on prayer. This prayer must be offered up despite the fact that reports will be less frequent and the follow-up less dramatic. We must persevere in our prayers, not losing heart. Luke 18:1 And He told them a parable to the end that they ought always to pray and not lose heart,
We should pray knowing that prayers, that are according to His will, are doing good and will eventually, in His timing, produce a harvest. Galatians 6:9 And let us not lose heart in doing what is good, for in the proper season we will reap if we do not faint. 2 Thessalonians 3:13 But you, brothers, do not lose heart in doing good.
