Now I beseech you, brethren, for the Lord Jesus Christ's sake, for the love of the Spirit, that you strive together with me in your prayers to God for me. Romans 15:30
The battle line will be drawn in the sand when we decide to strive together with others in prayer. Get this picture in your mind and allow it to take root in your heart at this very moment- Perhaps early in the morning-Possibly throughout the day- Potentially deep in the night there is a saint somewhere who is on their knees; upon their face or due to health reasons in a chair or in a bed with their head bowed interceding on your behalf. They are crying out, they are carrying your request and they are calling out your name before the God of heaven. They have purposely chosen to enter the battlefield of prayer. There is a fervency in their words and there is a fire kindled up deep inside of them. They feel as if their heart could melt by the burden they have for you.
Let us enter into the battle today! Let us come boldly not in our own power or persuasion, but in the power and might of the living God. Let’s do for others that which many have done for us. Let’s strive upon the battle field of prayer on their behalf.
