Pray for true words

Friday’s Reading: Jeremiah 28 & Mark 14

Father, I pray for the prophets you have sent. I pray for the pastors who proclaim your truth from your word.  Give them a hunger for knowing you from your word. Give them knowledge. And Lord please give them boldness to proclaim what is true. Do not let them fear man in any form; may they only fear you. I pray my pastor will not run in the face of difficulty or persecution. I ask that he would be a man of knoweldge, boldness, and endurance. When times are hard give him Christ’s joy of enduring the cross. When times are good give him a grateful spirit. In every season make my pastor a man who prays without ceasing and rejoices in all things.  Make him like Christ.

In Jesus’ name

Amen
