Here are some suggestions of how you can pray for us — applicable for telling stories in the schools, for leading Bible Studies, for Preaching, for Worship Leading, for daily conversations with those around us…. (adapted from 8 Ways to Pray During Sermon Preparation by Mike McKinley)

1. Lord, please help them understand the meaning of your Words and how they point to Christ.
2. Lord, please increase their love for the people with whom they communicate.
3. Lord, please give them wisdom to know how to share your truths with others.
4. Lord, please help them to grasp and love your gospel so that they may help the hearers to do the same.
5. Lord, please help them see how your words confront unbelief in the hearts of the hearers.
6. Lord, please help them to be obedient to the teachings of your Word.  Help them to live lives submitted to you and to your truth.
7. Lord, please help them to communicate with the necessary power and with appropriate emotions.
8. Lord, please use what they do and say to bring glory to Your name, joy to Your people, and salvation to the lost.
