Dear saints, let us pray that the saints would see that their proclaiming of the gospel of God is their sowing of the seed of Christ into people to bring in the kingdom of God (Mark 1:14-15; 4:3 and notes 3-1, 3-2; 4:26 and note 26-3). The seed of the divine life (1 John 3:9; […]

Dear saints, let us pray that the saints would eagerly learn the principles needed to bring people to the Lord and would practice these principles in order to learn the proper time and the proper way to reach people—to “catch the fish” (Acts 2:41; 4:4). The most important thing for a salesman is to create […]

Dear saints, let us pray that the saints would see that their visiting people is a preparation for the Holy Spirit to sanctify them and that they would contact people to afford the seeking Spirit a “line” to “hook” the lost sinners (1 Pet. 1:2 and note 2 – 5; 2 Thes. 2:13; Luke 15:8-10 […]
Let us pray for the saints to be vitalized personally and with companions so that they might “go fishing”

Dear saints, let us pray that the saints would get vitalized personally and with a few co-laboring companions to the extent that they would “go fishing” to get some “new fish” (Dan. 1:6; 2 Tim. 2:22). The elders should not try to form the groups in an organizational way. That does not work. They must […]

Dear saints, let us pray that the saints would realize that there are many sinners, many “fish” around them in the place where they live, and would “go fishing” — go contact them consistently week after week until they eventually gain someone (Matt. 4:19; Luke 5:10b). The Bible uses the illustration of fishing. To get […]

Dear saints, let us pray that the saints would realize that preaching the gospel is to be fishers of men, which requires contacting people patiently, again and again until they are “caught” unto life and brought out of the world into the kingdom of the heavens (Matt. 4:18-20; Luke 5:9-10 and note 10-2; Acts 11:18).

Dear saints, let us pray that the saints would see the urgent need to preach the gospel of peace, the glad tidings that Christ is our peace, our peace offering, and the Peacemaker, the One who broke down the middle wall of partition, the enmity, abolishing in His flesh the law of the commandments in […]
