Let us pray.
Our God and Father, we thank you that
once again we've had this opportunity, like two
passing trains in the night, to meet together
and to stop and open your word.
And we thank you for these mega-motivating
words from your word in Acts 13.
And we would pray in obedience to Matthew
chapter 9, O God, that you would send
forth, just as you sent Paul and Barnabas,
that you would send forth laborers, workers, into
the harvest, locally and across the globe.
And that you would raise up the senders,
the intercessors, the mission mobilizers, to make this
a reality that that remaining 25% may
soon at least hear or read about Jesus.
And that after that the church might be
planted among every peoples in every part of
the world.
In Jesus' name, Amen.
