Numbers 6:24-26 “The Lord bless you and keep you;

The Lord make His face shine upon you,


And be gracious to you;

The Lord lift up His countenance upon you,


And give you peace.”’

This week, I felt it would be a wonderful idea to pray for all of you fantastic ladies as you diligently serve the Lord with gladness. I know sometimes the work of the ministry may be difficult or you feel at a loss by what God has called you to do; but know you have been called for such a time as this and that I am praying for you. Should you have any prayer requests, you may also leave them on the response board for this posting. Be blessed and stay encouraged.

Lord, I lift up this wonderful woman of God that has answered the call to full-time ministry and ask that You will be her strong tower today. I thank You for her obedience to do the things that You have placed on her heart and ask that You will continue to equip her and strengthen her heart as she trusts You. I pray that You will continue to stir up spiritual gifts and callings, allow her to see You working on her behalf and keep her heart focused on Your truth as You stretch her in this calling and grow her faith. I pray that she will always have a servant’s heart, ready to be a blessing to those she comes into contact with and that You will be her refuge and strength in those times when she is discouraged and feels like she wants to quit. Remind her that You are for her and that You work all things together for good as You have called her to serve You, to worship You in spirit and truth. Minister to her and allow her to have quiet times to listen to Your still, small voice. Allow her to have a heart not encumbered by all the tasks before her, but to fully and completely sit at Your feet, to have a heart like Mary, who chooses the better thing. Refresh her and renew her spirit, protect her from pride, bitterness and give her discernment so that she may continue to walk as an example of a godly woman. Be with her today and each day I ask and pray in Your holy, perfect name, Lord Jesus- Amen!

What area of ministry can you focus on praying for this week? What are the plans you feel God is laying on your heart for that ministry?
