Ephesians 6:18 is an incredible verse which calls us to take our eyes off ourselves and place them on Christ and His heart for others, through prayer.
Have you noticed how easy it is to become "me" focused? All my thoughts and attention go towards what is best for me. What is it that I need to be happy and comfortable?
The possibility to lift others up before the Lord in prayer, to trust God for their lives, to see His work in His body escapes us at times.
However, when we pray in the Spirit with all kinds of prayers and requests; when we are alert and keep on praying for all the saints, we sense the pleasure and delight of God over our lives.
Can we purpose this week to take our church membership lists; our small group membership lists, and commit to what we are encouraged to do in Ephesians 6:18 - pray for all the saints.
God Bless,
The Eldership Team
