To Support Ministry Partners
Dear Lord,
Thank you for providing so many laborers in your vineyard. As gifted leaders, strong lay workers, and pastors and teachers work faithfully together, you watch over your flock and bear much fruit. Bless the spiritual care they provide to your people and to each other. Use them to defend against the devil’s attacks and to equip your people to do the same for their families and for themselves.
Give me an awareness to know when your workers are struggling, so that I may help them shoulder whatever burdens they are bearing. I want to provide them with support in ways that refresh them and make their work a joy. Make me an encourager to them in ways that they feel valued and appreciated. Help me always to speak well of them and to defend them from unkind words and gossip. Use me to build them up so that they effectively continue to build up your church.
In Jesus’ name I pray. Amen.
