Prayer Tools (Part 3)

Read Part One & Two...

3. Pray that God's Word Will Spread

"Finally, brothers, pray for us, that the word of the Lord may speed ahead and be honored." 2 Thessalonians 3:1

Obstacles must be removed to allow God's Word to spread rapidly and freely. Removing obstacles implies resolute resistance in spiritual warfare. Just as Aaron and Hur supported Moses' arms in the battle against the Amalekites (Exodus 17:12), you can support the weary arms of missionaries through your prayers.

Pray for strength and stamina as we encounter antagonistic spiritual forces (Eph. 6:10-18).

Pray that Satan, who is determined to obstruct the spread of the Gospel, will be resisted (James 4:7).

Pray that God's Word will indeed spread rapidly and be honored wherever it goes.
