In 2 Thessalonians 1:11-12, Paul includes a few words on the way in which he prays for the church in Thessalonica. Paul’s prayer for the church members is shaped by His desire for God to be glorified. He understands that God’s glory is the good of His people. May that be our desire too!
Prayer Guide: April 25, 2021 – 2 Thessalonians 1:11-12
1. Confess to God that He is worthy of all glory. Admit that too often you fail to live according to this Truth.
2. Ask God for grace to live in such a way that adds to – and does not detract from – His glory in the eyes of others.
3. Thank God for calling you out of the darkness of spiritual death and into the light of His salvation.
4. Pray for both the want to and the power to live according to God’s Word and God’s ways.
5. Ask God to grow you in your discernment of how you ought to pray for others. Pray also that God would grow you in your consistency to intercede on behalf of others – for His glory.
6. Pray that Trinity Baptist Church would continue to be known as a church that stands on and values God’s Word. Ask God to increase the influence of our church in our city for His glory.
7. Ask God to continue to give unity to our Music and Worship Pastor Search Team as we wait on Him to lead us to the right candidate.
