A Prayer for Pastors

 (ID: 1763)

In churches everywhere, many pastors are discouraged, burdened, and overworked. How then can church members best pray for their pastors? Alistair Begg counsels us by drawing on Paul’s words of encouragement to his pastoral protégé, Timothy. Paul urged Timothy and other pastors to keep their heads amid challenges and trials. By praying that our pastors may endure hardship, evangelize the lost, and complete the work of their ministry, we aid them in their important calling.


5As for you, qalways be sober-minded, rendure suffering, do the work of san evangelist, tfulfill your ministry.
