“Brethren, pray for us.” (I Thessalonians 5:25)
Paul, Silas and Timothy were partners in ministry when they wrote to the church in Thessalonica. Theirs was a simple request for the recipients of this letter: pray for them.
I remember a song from many years ago which said simply, “I want my friends to pray for me.” It is a valid request. There is not a preacher of the Gospel, a pastor of a local church, a missionary on foreign soil, or a teacher in the Sunday School who does not need the prayers of others.
May I make this request to you, the readers of this short devotional, please include me in your prayers when you are praying for servants of the Lord and calling them by name.
