35 Jesus went through all the towns and villages, teaching in their synagogues, proclaiming the good news of the kingdom and healing every disease and sickness. 36 When he saw the crowds, he had compassion on them, because they were harassed and helpless, like sheep without a shepherd. 37 Then he said to his disciples, “The harvest is plentiful but the workers are few. 38 Ask the Lord of the harvest, therefore, to send out workers into his harvest field.” Matthew 9:35-37
One of the things we forget to pray for in regards to the people we are fasting and praying about… is to pray for others who will influence their lives.
I love how in this passage Jesus tells his disciples to ask the Lord to send out workers to help in what they are doing.
So, here’s our prayer for today:
God, will you send people to answer my prayer for someone? And God, will you send me to answer someone else’s prayer for their special someone?
