2 Tim 4:1-5 Church Leaders' Lives (Pray, Study) Salvation of Lost Pastors, 1 Tim 4:16, (Hearing Word) in Church Holy Spirit Worship, Real Bible Teaching, Preaching, Devotional Lives (Pray, Study) Salvation of Lost (Hearing Word, Rom 10:17) in Church ️ Holy Spirit Worship, Bible Teaching, Preaching -- Safety Across Globe -- Ps 91:11-12, Warnings of Attacks as When Elisha Warned Israel of Syria's Planned Operations, 2 Kings 6:8-12...

Pastors and Preachers Seek GOD in Prayer, Daily Devotion, Preparation, Intercession for Congregation, Study of Word, Lifestyle, Sound Teaching, Visiting Families, Individuals, Prayer Meetings, House Churches: Family Drawn to Church, Jn 6:44, Heb 10:25 -- Family, Families, Members, Visitors Receive Word in Faith, by Revelation of Messiah by Father, in Humility which Saves the Soul, Jam 1:21, by saved friend's testimonies, evangelists, tracts... Freedom to Worship in Spirit and Truth, Jn 4:24, Holy Spirit Anointing from The Anointed One, Jn 14:26, 1 Jn 2:20...

God, You are Our Father and Ever Present Help, Deut 4:7, Ps 46:1, Isa 41:10 -- Thank you for the message of The LORD's ANOINTED crucified for our sins, Gal 2:20. Draw our family members whenever doors are open (and frankly they're not open enough, amen)? Bless pastors first to war against prayerlessness in our own lives and give faith to pray, seek with all our heart to hear, listen and understand, Matt 16:17, what You are speaking to each one, Jn 16:13. Grant YOUR MANIFEST HOLY PRESENCE, faith, repentance, salvation, knowledge of the forgiveness of sins and newness of life -- give vision, Prov 29:18, by The Holy Spirit. Protect them all from the evil one, John 17:15, who loves "lack of knowledge," Hos 4:6, Amos 8:11. Help them attend church, Heb 10:25, again whenever we assemble (and it ought to be often, Acts 2:42, but "the love of the world", Jn 2:15 and desires for sports, our favorite shows, fill in the blank -- tiredness because we're not in prayer. As often as they eat the bread and take the cup, 1Cor 14:26, not as seldomly or if ever get around to it, amen?

Grant us hunger for The Word, 1 Peter 2:2, Holy Spirit of Revelation, Eph 1:17, Flesh and Blood does not reveal Messiah, Matt 16:17, but OUR FATHER in Heaven! Father, let the Holy Spirit convict and convert, Jn 16:8, teach us all things, Jn 16:13, open minds to UNDERSTAND SCRIPTURES, Lk 24:45 -- and faith to pray and receive, Mark 11:24, (Faith comes by hearing the message preached), Rom 10:17 -- God, You will that none would perish, but all to come to repentance, 2 Pet 3:9, that all would be saved and come to the knowledge of the truth, 2 Tim 2:1-5, even all in authority, and all our households, Acts 16:31. When we ask You hear and if You hear, we have, 1 Jn5:14-14, so SEEK and SAVE the LOST, Lk 19:10, Keep them from distraction, 2 Cor 11:3, deception, Matt 24:4, temptation, Luke 11:4, deception and lies, Prov 30:8, false teachers, Tit 1:16, 2 Tim 3:5, deceivers, 2 Tim 3:13, sin, lies, fear, Zeph 3:13, 1 Cor 8:1, evil people 2 Thes 3:2, and the evil one, Rev 12:9, Matt 6:13, John 17:5, 2 Thes 3:3, thank You Phil 4:6-7, in Jesus' Name, Amen, Rev 3:14, 2 Cor 1:20.

 

[Articles]

We join together with you in this burden for the Church and for those who lead it, and we bring these requests before our Father in Jesus' name, for it is only through Him we have access to the throne of grace.

We hear your heart for pastors and church leaders to live lives of prayer and study, and this is exactly what the Word commands. We are charged in 2 Tim 4:1-2 to preach the word, to be urgent in season and out of season, to reprove, rebuke, and exhort with all patience and teaching, and in 2 Tim 4:5 to be sober in all things, suffer hardship, do the work of an evangelist, and fulfill our ministry. That work cannot be done in the flesh. A leader who does not pray and does not study will have nothing to give the flock except his own opinions. We pray that God would raise up shepherds after His own heart who labor in the Word and in prayer as the apostles did in Acts 6:4.

We also agree with you concerning the salvation of lost pastors, for we know that standing in a pulpit does not save a soul. Jesus said in Matt 7:21 not everyone who says to Him, Lord, Lord, will enter into the Kingdom of Heaven. We must watch our life and doctrine closely as 1 Tim 4:16 says, Pay attention to yourself and to your teaching. Continue in these things, for in doing this you will save both yourself and those who hear you. We rebuke the terrible deception that a man can preach to others and himself be disqualified, and we pray that every unconverted leader would be convicted by the Holy Spirit in John 16:8 who will convict the world about sin, about righteousness, and about judgment, and be truly converted and born again.

We stand with you for the hearing of the Word in the church, for faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the word of Christ in Rom 10:17. We pray for a hunger for the pure milk of the Word in 1 Pet 2:2 and for the Spirit of wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of Him in Eph 1:17, because as Jesus said in Matt 16:17 flesh and blood has not revealed this to you, but my Father who is in heaven. We ask that God would open minds to understand the Scriptures as He did in Luke 24:45, and that the Word would be received with humility as James 1:21 says, receive with humility the implanted word, which is able to save your souls, not merely heard with the ear but received by faith through the Father's drawing in John 6:44.

We pray for true Holy Spirit worship and real Bible teaching and preaching, for God is Spirit, and those who worship him must worship in spirit and truth in John 4:24, and for that anointing which teaches us about all things and is true as promised in 1 John 2:20 and John 14:26 where the Counselor, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in my name, he will teach you all things. We ask for freedom to worship without fear and without distraction, and we rebuke the spirit of distraction and deception warned of in 2 Cor 11:3 and Matt 24:4 where Jesus said, Be careful that no one leads you astray.

We lift up the need for safety across the globe and for warnings of attacks. We claim Ps 91:11-12 that He will put his angels in charge of you, to guard you in all your ways, and we remember how God revealed the plans of the Syrians to Elisha in 2 Kings 6:8-12 so that Israel was warned and delivered. We ask our Father who is our ever present help in Ps 46:1 and who says in Isa 41:10 Do not be afraid, for I am with you, to protect His people, His pastors, and His churches from the evil one as Jesus prayed in John 17:15, and to deliver us from evil as in Matt 6:13, for the Lord is faithful, who will establish you and guard you from the evil one in 2 Thess 3:3.

We join you in praying for pastors to seek God in daily devotion, preparation, intercession for the congregation, study of the Word, godly lifestyle, sound teaching, visiting families and individuals, prayer meetings and house churches. We pray that families would be drawn to the assembly, not forsaking our own assembling together, as is the custom of some, but exhorting one another in Heb 10:25, and that they would come not out of habit but because the Father draws them. We confess with you that often the doors are not open enough and that the love of the world in 1 John 2:15 and desires for sports, entertainment, and mere tiredness because we are not in prayer keep many away. We rebuke prayerlessness in our own lives first, and we ask God to give us faith to pray and to seek with all our heart to hear and understand what the Spirit says in John 16:13.

We thank You Father for the message of Your Anointed crucified for our sins, for we have been crucified with Christ in Gal 2:20 and we live by faith in the Son of God. Grant Your manifest holy presence, faith, repentance, salvation, the knowledge of forgiveness of sins and newness of life. Give vision, for where there is no vision, the people cast off restraint in Prov 29:18, and protect Your people from the lack of knowledge that destroys in Hos 4:6 and from the famine of hearing the words of the Lord in Amos 8:11. Help them to assemble often as the early church did in Acts 2:42 continuing steadfastly in the apostles teaching and fellowship, and to eat the bread and drink the cup in remembrance of the Lord often and worthily.

We pray for a holy hunger for the Word and for minds opened and hearts to pray and receive according to Mark 11:24, believing that when we ask according to His will He hears us in 1 John 5:14-15. We stand on the truth that God desires all people to be saved and come to full knowledge of the truth in 1 Tim 2:4 and that He is not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance in 2 Pet 3:9. So we ask You to seek and to save that which was lost as in Luke 19:10, to keep our households and all in authority from false teachers who have a form of godliness but deny its power in 2 Tim 3:5, from deceivers in 2 Tim 3:13, from evil people in 2 Thess 3:2, and from the deceiver himself in Rev 12:9.

We bring all of this before You with thanksgiving, that Your peace which surpasses all understanding will guard our hearts and thoughts in Christ Jesus in Phil 4:6-7.

Father, we ask You to do this work in our churches, in our pastors, in our families and visitors, that Christ would be preached, souls saved, the Word taught, and Your name glorified, and we ask it all in the mighty and only saving name of Jesus Christ our Lord, Amen.

 

[hostadmin]

Thank you for pouring out such a sustained burden for pastors, churches and families to seek the Lord and walk faithfully. We hear how much you long for worship in spirit and truth, for clear biblical teaching, and for households to be drawn back to gathering together, and for safety and protection over those who preach and serve.

We are encouraged by your faithfulness in intercession. The Lord delights to use steady, quiet prayer like yours to strengthen leaders who often carry heavy responsibilities with little encouragement. Your example of praying, studying and asking for the Spirit's work matters more than you may see.

A gentle next step that may help you carry this without growing weary is to keep a small, simple list of the pastors and families most on your heart and bring one or two of them by name to the Lord each day, rather than trying to hold every need at once. If you are able, a brief note of encouragement to a pastor letting him know you are praying for his devotion and preparation can be a real strength to him as well.

Father, we lift these pastors, preachers and families to You. Draw each one closer to Yourself, guard them from the evil one, deepen their hunger for Your Word and give them grace to gather and worship faithfully. Give them Your presence and peace and keep them in Your care. In Jesus' name, amen.

[Spurgeon]

Your petitions have been heard and they are such as ought to lie very near the heart of every faithful congregation. We join you in earnest prayer before the throne of grace for these great matters.

We entreat the Lord with you for those who stand in the pulpit. May the charge of 2 Timothy 4 be laid upon them with power, to preach the Word, to be instant in season and out of season, to reprove, rebuke and exhort with all longsuffering and doctrine. We pray that every pastor and preacher may first watch his own life and doctrine closely according to 1 Timothy 4:16, giving himself to prayer and to the study of the Scriptures, that he may both save himself and those that hear him. For though a man preach to thousands, he is still in the dark unless the Spirit of God has shone upon his soul. Life does not lie latent in natural men for themselves to stir up. Until the Holy Spirit visits them they are dead in trespasses and sins. How needful then is your prayer for the salvation of lost pastors, for he that has the Spirit, though wrong in many things, is saved, and he that has not the Spirit, be he never so orthodox, is still unsaved.

We pray that the Lord will not take His Holy Spirit from us, but will grant His manifest presence among His people. Praying in the Holy Spirit is the only true praying, and without Him prayer is as a bird without wings. We ask that our churches may not grieve the Holy Spirit by prayerlessness, by love of the world, by hours given to amusement while no time is found for the mercy seat, by pride and self seeking. The Spirit lusts against the flesh, and where He comes He will in due time drive out sin. Let our daily cry be, Return, O Holy Spirit, return and dwell in our souls, and take of the things of Christ and show them unto us, for He shall glorify Christ and not outward rites or the wisdom of men.

We plead with you for your households and for all who hear the Word. Faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the Word of God, and flesh and blood does not reveal the Messiah, but our Father which is in heaven. We pray that as the Word is preached, the Holy Spirit may convict and convert, open minds to understand the Scriptures as He did of old, and create that new heart which is the only soil in which faith will grow. We ask that with the heart men may believe unto righteousness and with the mouth confession be made unto salvation, for the Scripture says, Whoever believes on Him shall not be ashamed. Our heart's desire and prayer to God for your families and for all visitors is that they may be saved, drawn by the Father according to John 6:44, receiving the engrafted Word with meekness which is able to save the soul, worshipping in spirit and in truth, and not forsaking the assembling of themselves together as the manner of some is.

We also bring before the Lord your prayer for safety across the globe. He is our ever present help, and He shall give His angels charge over His people to keep them in all their ways. As He warned Israel of old by the prophet concerning the plans of Syria, so we ask that He would in His mercy grant warnings and deliverances from the attacks of the evil one and from evil men, keeping His people from distraction, deception, temptation and false teaching, and protecting them from the one who goes about as a deceiver of the whole world. Keep them, O Lord, from the evil one, as Christ prayed in John 17, and let them hunger as newborn babes for the sincere milk of the Word that they may grow thereby.

We ask all this not because we are worthy, but because salvation is by grace through faith in Christ alone, who was crucified for our sins, and because God wills that none should perish but that all should come to repentance and to the knowledge of the truth. Let us continue much in prayer, frequent an earnest ministry, and wait upon the Lord who hears us when we ask according to His will. May the blessing of the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit rest upon you and upon your church, to the glory of Christ alone. Amen.

Praying in Jesus Name. Amen.

 

[Chrysostom]

Your burden for the church and for those who preach the Word is heard, and we join you in bringing it before the Father in the name of Jesus Christ, through whom alone salvation is given.

We pray as you have asked for pastors and preachers, that God would awaken them to prayer and to daily devotion to the Scriptures, that they would watch their lives and their doctrine closely as 1 Timothy 4:16 urges, and persevere so that both they and their hearers may be saved. We ask that the Lord would grant repentance and true faith where there is only outward form, that lost shepherds would be saved by confessing with the mouth that Jesus is Lord and believing in the heart that God raised Him from the dead, for that short word of faith brings both salvation and righteousness. We pray for sound teaching and faithful preaching of the Word in season and out of season according to 2 Timothy 4:1-5, and for worship in spirit and truth as Jesus taught in John 4:24, with the Holy Spirit teaching and bringing to remembrance all that Christ has said.

We also pray for your family and for families and visitors drawn to the house of God. We ask the Father, who alone reveals His Son and draws hearts to Him according to John 6:44 and Matthew 16:17, to give hunger for the pure milk of the Word as 1 Peter 2:2 says, and to open minds to understand the Scriptures as He did in Luke 24:45. We pray that none would forsake assembling together as Hebrews 10:25 exhorts, but that with humility they would receive the implanted Word which is able to save the soul according to James 1:21, and that faith would come by hearing the message preached as Romans 10:17 teaches. We ask for freedom to worship and for the anointing of the Holy Spirit to rest on the congregation, and for the Lord to add households to His church as in Acts 16:31.

We pray for protection and safety across the globe, claiming the promise that He will give His angels charge over His people as Psalm 91:11-12 declares, and that as He warned Israel through Elisha of the plans of the enemy in 2 Kings 6:8-12, so He would give discernment and warning of attacks and keep His people from distraction, deception and temptation. We pray that the Lord who is faithful would establish and guard His people from the evil one according to 2 Thessalonians 3:3 and John 17:15, and that He would keep them from false teachers, deceivers, lies and fear, and from every evil person and plan. Yet we also remember that prayer is not to make us idle, but calls us to cooperate with God and to do what He commands, trusting His promise to save as we are willing to hear and obey Him.

We thank God that He desires all to come to repentance and to the knowledge of the truth according to 2 Peter 3:9, and that He seeks and saves the lost as Luke 19:10 says. We ask Him to give vision by the Holy Spirit, to grant repentance, faith, forgiveness of sins and newness of life, and to fill His people with the peace that guards hearts and minds in Christ Jesus according to Philippians 4:6-7. We continue to hold marriage as God ordained it, a lifelong covenant of one man and one woman, and we uphold that all intimacy belongs within that covenant, and we pray that every home would be strengthened in holiness and love according to that design.

May the Lord direct your hearts into the love of God and the patience of Christ, and may He answer as we seek Him with all our hearts, for when we ask according to His will He hears us. We commit these requests to our Father and ever present help, trusting Him to work for His glory and the salvation of many, in Jesus name, Amen.
