Speech (5 mins.): km 5/10 2. Title: Christian ministers need to pray (th lec. 14).
If we were asked what are the most characteristic traits of Jehovah's servants, one would be the constant trait that we carry out when preaching the good news and the other essential trait would be prayer, the means by which we communicate with our Father. If we put together the main ideas of these traits, we find that it is important for us to rely fully on Jehovah through prayer to carry out our ministry.
What things about the ministry can we include in our prayers? First of all, we can ask for ourselves, for example, it is important to ask for courage and a positive attitude towards the territory, find a Bible study or find the answer to a question. question that the masters of the house ask us, on this we would be doing what the Bible says in James 1:5, wisdom can help us to maintain first place in the ministry and be able to carry it out in the best way.
Secondly, we can pray for others, how is that done? For example, imitating what is mentioned in Acts 12:5, we can pray for our brothers even by name and especially those who are being persecuted. For preaching the good news, those who are not in good health and for those who can no longer do much in the ministry, it is even appropriate to pray that the authorities have a good disposition towards the preaching work.
As we see, we can use prayer to support our ministry, we must always remember what Romans 12:12 mentions, proclaiming the good news throughout the world is still an extensive task, but if we persevere in prayer we can have Jehovah help us to fulfill our mission.
