EACF 40 Days of Prayer 2019
Day 25: For Other Churches
Two Sundays ago Perimeter Church, a large Presbyterian (PCA) church prayed for EACF. I've known some of the leaders and members there for many years and I appreciate what they do and how they support other churches. Let's return the favor and pray for other churches in our community as well, because God is working through many groups in many different ways and we need to support all who are doing Gospel ministry. What other churches you know of in your community, churches that your friends or family or co-workers may attend, pray for spiritual vitality, for growth in discipleship, for healthy community, and for effective outreach.
"Beloved, it is a faithful thing you do in all your efforts for these brothers, strangers as they are, who testified to your love before the church. You will do well to send them on their journey in a manner worthy of God. For they have gone out for the sake of the name, accepting nothing from the Gentiles. Therefore we ought to support people like these, that we may be fellow workers for the truth." - 3 John 5–8 ESV
"The churches of Asia send you greetings. Aquila and Prisca, together with the church in their house, send you hearty greetings in the Lord. All the brothers send you greetings. Greet one another with a holy kiss." - 1 Corinthians 16:19–20 ESV
