BIBLE READING: Hebrews 13:17; Eph. 4:7-8; 1Cor. 3:10; 2Cor. 3:5-6.

The Apostles of old said, “brethren pray for us.” We need to pray for our fathers in the faith that are at the helm of affairs of our church to soar higher in the assignment God has committed to their hands. They need more of the Holy Spirit and His gifts in discharging their duties without which they may get discouraged, confused and quit.

Brethren, members of the General Advisory Council (GAC) need our prayers for grace, wisdom and dexterity to implement the assignment God committed to their hands and for their personal needs. Each believer has received a gracious divine endowment that enables us to accomplish things that we ordinarily could not have by our own means. Without grace endowment, ministers would not have the means to accomplish the ministry they are called to. Grace endowment makes effective ministry possible and is freely given by the Lord Jesus right up to this present day for effectiveness in ministry.
