".... praying always for you," Colossians 1:3
Like the Apostle Paul, those who minister to others in the Word, will often find themselves in prayer for the saints. Preaching, teaching or leading of any kind in the church of God is meaningless and shallow if not accompanied, supported and empowered by much prayer. The need to pray does not diminish when a man is in ministry, but it actually increases and does so by a magnitude equivalent to the task and burden that is to be carried. The greater the task, the need to be met and the ministry required, the greater the effort in the exercise of prayer and fasting. Prayer achieves much and is an integral and essential part of ministry. Pray for those in ministry, not only for an anointing to minister the Word of God, but that they may also build and faithfully maintain an altar of prayer and intercession before the Lord.
