This last week, the Pope visited the United States of
America and it was massive. He was said to have impacted and addressed many, from
the congressmen to the over a thousand people he held mass with. I particularly
watched the part where he asked people to pray for him also.
Well, the Pope is not the only minister or servant of God
who asked to be prayed for. Apostle Paul also wrote in the third chapter of his
second letter to the Thessalonians asking them to pray for him and his co-
workers in the vineyard so that God’s word may speed ahead and be honoured.
You may not be able to go into the thick forests and
interior villages to reach out to people but you can pray for those who do so. That
way, you are partnering with the missionaries on the field. You need to pray
for those God uses to speak to you and bless your life. It could be your Sunday
school teacher, departmental head, pastor or even your folks and close pals. By
strength shall no man prevail. We all need prayers. And it always feels good
knowing that someone is praying for you. Don’t wait till they are gone before
you pray for them.
