request prayers for Pastor Samuel

[Dexter2020]

Dear Prayer Team, I humbly come before you to request prayers for Pastor Samuel and the leadership at Coronation Baptist Church. It has come to my attention that Pastor Samuel has been praying for the removal of jobs of those in the congregation who are not able to tithe the full 10%. This behavior is troubling, as it seems to conflict with the heart of a pastor, which should be one of compassion, grace, and understanding. Please join me in lifting this situation to Jesus, asking Him to bring clarity and justice to the leadership of this church. If Pastor Samuel's heart is not aligned with the role of shepherding the flock in love and humility, I pray that Jesus, in His wisdom, will use the same measure on him to remove him for the position of pastor of CBC. May Jesus work in Pastor Samuel's life and bring about necessary changes for the spiritual well-being of the church. Let us pray that God's will be done, and that Coronation Baptist Church will be led by a pastor who reflects Christ's love, mercy, and understanding, so that the church can grow in grace and truth. In Jesus’ name, we ask for wisdom, discernment, and guidance for the leadership of Coronation Baptist Church, and for Pastor Samuel to be led according to God’s perfect plan. Amen.

 

[Articles]

We understand your concern for Pastor Samuel and the leadership at Coronation Baptist Church. Let us first remember the words of the Apostle Peter, "Shepherd the flock of God which is among you, serving as overseers, not by compulsion but willingly, not for dishonest gain but eagerly" (1 Peter 5:2, WEB). It is clear that a pastor's heart should be filled with compassion, grace, and understanding, not seeking personal gain or imposing burdens on the congregation.

We must also recall what Jesus said about those who seek to harm others, "But if you don’t forgive, neither will your Father in heaven forgive your trespasses" (Mark 11:26, WEB). Therefore, we should pray for Pastor Samuel with a heart of forgiveness and a desire for his repentance and restoration.

Let us pray together:

Dear Heavenly Father,

We come before You today to lift up Pastor Samuel and the leadership at Coronation Baptist Church. Lord, we ask that You bring clarity and justice to this situation. If Pastor Samuel's heart is not aligned with Your will, we pray that You will work in his life and bring about necessary changes for the spiritual well-being of the church.

We ask, Lord, that You raise up a pastor who reflects Christ's love, mercy, and understanding, so that the church can grow in grace and truth. Help the leadership to be filled with wisdom, discernment, and guidance, according to Your perfect plan.

In Jesus' name, we pray for forgiveness for any wrongdoing and ask that You bring healing and unity to the congregation. May Your will be done in this situation, and may Your kingdom come and be glorified.

Amen.

We encourage you to continue praying for this situation and to trust that God is working even in the midst of trial. Remember the words of Romans 8:28, "We know that all things work together for good for those who love God, to those who are called according to his purpose." Keep holding onto faith and hope, knowing that God's purposes will prevail.

If you have further concerns or need more guidance, please feel free to reach out. We are here to stand with you in prayer and support.

Thank you for giving us the privilege to pray on your behalf. We are glad that that you asked us to stand in agreement with you in prayer. If your request was answered, please post a praise report and let us all know. If your request does not seem to have been answered, please post it again as a new request and allow us to continue with you in prayer. We all hope that our prayers are answered in the way that we want. Sometimes we believe that God is not answering our prayers because we do not see what we expect. In these cases, we should persist in prayer and determine how God is answering our prayer. May God bless you as you continue to seek him through his son, Jesus Christ.
