New Testament Prayers For Ministers and Ministries
(Pray these prayers for your pastor or a
man or woman of God)
*********************************************************************************************
Acts Chapter Four
Lord, since I have heard the
report about the anointing and the struggles of the ministry of _________ , I
raise my voice to You in prayer, O God. Sovereign Lord, You made the heaven
and the earth and the sea, and everything in them. You spoke by the Holy
Spirit through the mouth of your servant, our father David: "Why do the
nations rage and the peoples plot in vain? The kings of the earth take their
stand and the rulers gather together against the Lord and against his Anointed
One."Indeed Herod and Pontius Pilate met together with the Gentiles and
the people of Israel in the city of Jerusalem to conspire against Your holy
servant Jesus, whom you anointed. They did what your power and will had
decided beforehand should happen. Now, Lord, consider the needs of this city
also and the threats against the anointed ministry of _________ and enable
Your servant _________ to speak Your word with great boldness. Stretch out
Your hand through _________ to heal and perform miraculous signs and wonders
through the name of Your holy servant Jesus. In Jesus Name! (Acts 4:24-30, NIV).
Romans Chapter Fifteen
By my Lord Jesus Christ and by
my love for the Spirit, I join the ministry of _________ in his or her
struggle by praying to You, O God for _________ . Father, I pray that
_________ may be rescued from any unbelievers wherever he goes and that
_________'s service in this city(ies) may be acceptable to the saints in this
place(s), so that by God's will, _________ may come again to me with joy and
together, we will both be refreshed. In Jesus Name! (Romans 15:30-32, NIV).
Ephesians Chapter Six
(Father, putting on the whole
armor of God) I pray in the Spirit on all occasions with all kinds of prayers
and requests. With this in mind, I'll stay alert and always keep on praying
for all the saints. I pray also for the ministry of _________ , that whenever
_________ opens his mouth, words may be given to _________ so that he or she
will fearlessly make known the mystery of the gospel, for which _________ is
an ambassador in chains (to the will of God). I pray, Father, that _________
may declare the Word of God fearlessly, as he should. In Jesus Name!
(Ephesians 6:18-20, NIV).
Colossians Chapter Four
Father, I devote myself to prayer, being watchful and
thankful. And I pray for the ministry of _________ , too, that God may open a
door for _________ 's message, so that _________ may proclaim the mystery of
Christ, for which he is in chains (to his or her calling). In Jesus Name!
(Colossians 4:2,3, NIV).
1 Thessalonians 3:9-11
God, I can't thank You enough in
return for all the joy I have in Your presence because of _________. Night and
day I pray most earnestly that _________ may see me again and supply what is
lacking in my faith. Now may You, God, and My Father and my Lord Jesus clear
the way for _________ to come to me. In Jesus Name! (1 Thessalonians 3:9-11,
NIV).
2 Thessalonians Chapter 3
I pray for the ministry of
_________, that the message of the Lord through _________ may spread rapidly
and be honored, just as it has been with me. And I pray that _________ may be
delivered from wicked and evil men, for not everyone has faith. In Jesus Name!
(2 Thessalonians 3:1,2, NIV).
Hebrews Chapter Thirteen
I pray for the ministry of
_________ , that he or she keep a clear conscience and that they desire to
live honorably in every way. Father, I pray that You restore _________ to me
so that I can enjoy his ministry again. In Jesus Name! (Hebrews 13:18,19, NIV).
Here at Fury of Faith Ministries, We covet your prayers and Thank you for your
time that you spend before the Lord on our behalf and in reading
these devotionals. Use these prayers to change the lives of those around you.
If there is one thing that I can say that I am absolutely positive on is
that;
God does answer prayer!
