CARRIERS OF THE CROSS
Prayer is needed for ministers of the cloth,
Every Christian household is urgently beseeched,
Pray for the shepherds, for all missionaries of God,
Prayer is needed for the ones called to lead,
Carriers of the cross,
Caretakers of the sheep,
Need prayer for strength,
For Jesus to surround them as they speak,
A very heavy responsibility rests upon them,
When they come face to face with God,
They will atone for the blood of men,
As Officers In Christ’s Army,
They are sought after by devils to sin,
They face sadness we don’t see,
Backsliding and loss of faith,
As providers of God’s light they know where it is dim,
They long to be useful to both sinners and saints,
To be a blessing to our families,
Please pray for their courage and strength,
Together we can lift them so they may lead the way

Paul wrote in
1 Thess 5:25
"Brethren, pray for us."
Eph 6:16-18
In addition to all this, take up the shield of faith,
with which you can extinguish all the flaming arrows
of the evil one.
Take the helmet of salvation and the sword of the Spirit,
which is the word of God.
And pray in the Spirit on all occasions with all kinds of
prayers and requests. With this in mind, be alert and
always keep on praying for all the Saints.
