Prayer Advocate – Winchester District UMM

UMMen of Winchester District:

 I have been appointed Prayer Advocate for the Winchester District.  Although a concerted effort will be made to promote prayer in the forthcoming year, what better advocates do we need than Jesus telling his disciples they should always pray and not give up (Luke 18:1), and Paul’s letter to the Romans (10:10-12): “Be devoted to one another in brotherly love. Honor one another above yourselves.  Never be lacking in zeal, but keep your spiritual fervor, serving the Lord. Be joyful in hope, patient in affliction, faithful in prayer.”

 If you haven’t heard or used the word “zeal” in a while, it means intense enthusiasm. Wow, can you imagine having conversation with our Lord with such passion.  Although this message is brief, please know that I believe prayer is essential in our lives.  Whether before meetings, before meals, or before rising each morning, take time to go to God for his blessings, for developing relationships, for lighting your path, for sending His Son.

 May you be faithful in prayer in your walk with Christ!

–Always In His Name,  Charles Browning
