2Thessalonians 3:1

Paul, the most celebrated first century evangelist, asked everyone he spoke to and wrote to that they keep him in prayer. In particular, he made a prayer request we should all be praying: that the Word of the Lord may run swiftly and be glorified, just as it is with you. As we share God’s Word with the lost, we should be asking the Lord to cause His Word to run swiftly and move forward without hindrance, with obstacles removed in the lives of those we are reaching out to. It had happened that way quickly in the lives of those in Thessalonica, so Paul asked that it would happen again with those who were hearing the message of God’s love. Share your faith, but do so with prayer, that God might cause His Word to find clear sailing into the hearts of the hearer!

Praying for an open door today,
