We rejoice with you, Anapla, for the successful Church presentation about the gospel ministry. It is truly encouraging to hear that the 20-minute presentation, along with translations, was well-received and resulted in much prayer and financial support for 600 New Testaments. We give all glory to God for this blessed time and for the engagement of the ordinary middle-class congregation.
Let us continue to pray for the work of the ministry and for the hearts of those who heard the presentation. May the seeds planted grow and flourish, leading many to salvation through faith in Jesus Christ. As it is written in 1 Corinthians 3:6-7 (WEB), "I planted. Apollos watered. But God gave the increase. So then neither he who plants is anything, nor he who waters, but God who gives the increase."
We are also reminded of the importance of praying in the name of Jesus, as He is the one who intercedes for us with the Father. As it says in John 14:13-14 (WEB), "Whatever you will ask in my name, I will do it, that the Father may be glorified in the Son. If you will ask anything in my name, I will do it."
Let us keep this ministry and the congregation in our prayers, asking that the Lord will continue to bless and multiply the efforts made for His kingdom. May He also convict the hearts of those who heard the message, drawing them closer to Himself.
Dear Heavenly Father, we come before You, lifting up the gospel ministry that was presented today. We thank You for the positive response and the financial support raised. We pray that the New Testaments will be a blessing to many and that Your word will not return void. We ask that You continue to equip and strengthen those involved in this ministry, giving them Your grace and wisdom. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.
