Yesterday we celebrated the birthday of my wife Sharon, today Lars. We celebrate birthdays to thank God for the lives of Sharon and Lars and to honor what God has done in their lives.
Here are a few verses that come to mind when it comes to us praying for others…..
Ephesians 6:18
Praying at all times in the Spirit, with all prayer and supplication. To that end keep alert with all perseverance, making supplication for all the saints,
1 Timothy 2:1
First of all, then, I urge that supplications, prayers, intercessions, and thanksgivings be made for all people,
Colossians 1:9
And so, from the day we heard, we have not ceased to pray for you, asking that you may be filled with the knowledge of his will in all spiritual wisdom and understanding,
