Everyday I see several Facebook posts made by believers who are deeply criticizing the church and even prophesying against it. Id like to suggest that the next time you have the urge to make one of these post that you consider an alternative. The alternative is prayer. Praying is always a better idea when the alternative is criticizing. The following is a good start. 10 Scriptures to Pray for the Church 1. 2 Timothy 4:2 – Pray that the church will preach the Word of God without apology. 2. Colossians 4:2 – Pray that the church would devote itself to prayer. 3. Acts 4:12 – Pray that the church will boldly share Jesus as the only hope for salvation. 4. John 4:24 – Pray that the church will worship God in spirit and in truth. 5. 1 Peter 5:2-3 – Pray that our leaders will serve humbly as godly examples to all. 6. Colossians 1:28-29 – Pray that the church will labor and strive to present everyone mature in Christ. 7. Matthew 9:37-38 – Pray that more workers step up to faithfully serve. 8. Ephesians 4:11-12 – Pray that our leaders equip the saints for the work of ministry. 9. Revelation 2:4-5 – Pray that the church does not lose its first love. 10. Matthew 16:18 – Pray that we will trust Jesus to grow the church.
