A Guide To Intercessory Prayer
by Rev. Richard W. LaFountain

Step 10... Pray For Ministries


Pray for the ministry and those who minister in the church.  Paul
urged praying Christians to intercede on his behalf.  While Moses
interceded for the battle with his hands raised he needed helpers in
intercession to UPHOLD him, his arms, in prayer.  No man is an island
no man stands alone.  We are to pray for the ministries and ministers
of the house of God.

"Not as though we are sufficient of ourselves to think
 any thing as of ourselves; but our sufficiency is of God:
 Who also that made us ABLE MINISTERS of the New Testament."
 2 Cor 3:5-6
