Paul's urgent plea for prayer before heading to Jerusalem hits different when you realize the danger he was walking into. He asks for THREE specific things:
Deliverance from unbelievers
Acceptance of his ministry gift
Safe passage to Rome so that he can be refreshed by the Roman church
What strikes me most? Paul, this giant of the faith, knew he couldn't live a faithful life all alone. He understood the power of community prayer and knew that he needed it. Sometimes we think asking for prayer shows weakness. Paul shows us it's actually wisdom in pursuit of joy and refreshment. When we're stepping into God's calling - whether it's a new job, a difficult conversation, or a hard season of service - we need #Christian brothers and sisters praying with us. Follow along as Pastor Josh unpacks these key truths from Romans 15:28-33.
How do you join together with others for prayer? Maybe you need to rethink your schedule in order to pray with other brothers and sisters on a regular basis.
