Pray for Open Doors

Colossians 4:2-4 — Prayers for the Church

Pray for Open Doors Devote yourselves to prayer, being watchful and thankful. And pray for us, too, that God may open a door for our message, so that we may proclaim the mystery of Christ, for which I am in chains. Pray that I may proclaim it clearly, as I should. (Colossians 4:2-4)

Lord, bless me to be devoted to prayer, for this is the key to hearing from you—for receiving instructions for how to live a god-filled life. 

Bless me to be watchful in all matters.

Bless me to be thankful at all times.

Bless me to be humble enough to ask for prayers from others.

Bless me to be bold enough to pray for those in need with your confidence, peace, and faith.

Bless me to ask for open doors where I might proclaim your good news, truth, love, grace, and mercy. 

Bless me to boldly proclaim the mystery of Christ and all the words of my Lord and savior Jesus, his father, and my God—and that I do so clearly.  

This is as it should be. This is your will. 

Amen and amen.
