In Romans chapter 1 Paul gives us the example of truth in intercession and evangelism. Often we make promises especially to other believers that we would pray for them, their situation or their circumstance. But, we either grow weary of the cause or never have any intent in actually committing to prayer regarding the situation. We treat the promise of prayer as an after thought such as asking how someone is doing without any true desire to hear or discuss the response. However, Paul made it clear that he constantly remembered the believers in Rome in his prayers at all times. (Rom 1:9-10). He also evangelically longed to see them with the desire to impart a spiritual gift to strengthen the other believers that they may be able to mutually encourage each other in faith. He tells them how he sought to have a harvest even among the faithful believers. Paul expressed his eagerness to preach the gospel saying that it is the power of God for salvation of everyone who believes, and it is a gospel of which he is not ashamed. Intercession and evangelism goes hand in hand. Someone who has a true heart for outreach not only ministers externally in the physical but also in prayerful intercession spiritually. There is the continuous need for prayer and fasting both for strength and power to accomplish the tasks set before you with Holy Ghost power through and in Christ Jesus. - -Tony Posted by TNT Christian Explosion 0 comments
