    Prayer

    Let us Pray(1)-New testament prayer points
    Scriptures teach us to pray
    1 Thessalonians 5:17 KJV
    [17] Pray without ceasing.
    It teaches us to pray for others more than for ourselves
    Ephesians 6:18 KJV
    [18] Praying always with all prayer and supplication in the
    Spirit, and watching thereunto with all perseverance and
    supplication for all saints;
    scriptures has/have its own prayer points,they are spirit
    inspired and will guide us better than any other format,
    I call them spirit -led prayer requests .
    We shall examine different categories of people we ought to
    pray for
    1)The unsaved( those who are yet to believe the gospel of
    christ )
    The predicament of the unsaved
    2 Corinthians 4:3-5
    2 Corinthians 4:3-4 KJV
    [3] But if our gospel be hid, it is hid to them that are lost: [4] In
    whom the god of this world hath blinded the minds of them
    which believe not, lest the light of the glorious gospel of Christ,
    who is the image of God, should shine unto them.
    What he needs ?
    Light ,illumination .
    Let's see a clearer analysis
    Romans 10:14-16 KJV
    [14] How then shall they call on him in whom they have not
    believed?
    He needs to believe .
    " and how shall they believe in him of whom they have not
    heard?"
    To believe he needs to hear .
    and how shall they hear without a preacher?
    To hear he needs a preacher
    [15] And how shall they preach, except they be sent? as it is
    written, How beautiful are the feet of them that preach the
    gospel of peace, and bring glad tidings of good things!
    A preacher must be sent to him
    [16] But they have not all obeyed the gospel. For Esaias saith,
    Lord, who hath believed our report?
    Yet the word must yet be received ,honored .
    Romans 10:17 KJV
    [17] So then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word
    of God.
    So I ask in prayer for the following
    1)
    Matthew 9:37-38 KJV
    [37] Then saith he unto his disciples, The harvest truly is
    plenteous, but the labourers are few; [38] Pray ye therefore the
    Lord of the harvest, that he will send forth labourers into his
    harvest.
    This is in the case where I can't directly reach the fellow,I pray
    for a release of persons to reach this person or persons
    2)2 Thessalonians 3:1 KJV
    [1] Finally, brethren, pray for us, that the word of the Lord may
    have free course, and be glorified, even as it is with you:
    That all hinderances to the free flow of the light to him be
    taken away ,the word runs freely and is glorified .
    So I pray for ...
    The boldness of the preacher sent to the person
    Colossians 4:3 KJV
    [3] Withal praying also for us, that God would open unto us a
    door of utterance, to speak the mystery of Christ, for which I
    am also in bonds:
    Acts 4:29 KJV
    [29] And now, Lord, behold their threatenings: and grant unto
    thy servants, that with all boldness they may speak thy word,
    Finally as taught in Ephesians 6:18- pray these in the spirit ..
    Ready ?pen down a name or names of persons you want to
    pray for
    Let us pray !
    I call you blessed
    Jesus is Lord,We Win!
