As a minister, you will need to pray for people often. There are some prayer points in the letters of the apostle paul that has transformed the lives of many people. I call these prayers the Ephesians Prayers and the Colossians Prayers.
It takes the supernatural power of the Holy Spirit to show to a person that he or she is lost without Christ Jesus.
It also takes the power of the Holy Spirit, to bring a believer to the place where they confess that without the power of the Holy Spirit, they can’t do anything of value for the Kingdom of God.
How then do we achieve these “impossible” tasks? We pray! We call on our heavenly Father to move upon His children and do what only He can do.
On this podcast episode, I share on how any BiVocational Minister can use the prayers of the apostle Paul in Ephesians (Ephesians 1:15 23; Ephesians 3:14-21) and Colossians (Col 1:9-12) to pray for believers and receive extraordinary results.
If you want to pray for lost souls, these prayers may not be the best, unless you modify them.
