Prayer - Steadfast Devotion

Over the past couple weeks, our Personnel Director Chris B. used the Mission Handbook to lead us in prayer, and I would like to share the points with you. These communicate the heart of our (WMPL's) mission, God's mission. Prayer is our heartbeat. I would like to ask and challenge you to go through these with me for ourselves, each other, and more specifically, missionaries with WMPL.

1. Pray that each of us will remain steadfast in devotion to Jesus Christ, living lives worthy of the calling.

“We are committed to the Person and the Cause of Jesus. We believe that committed lives are indispensable for authentic and compelling witness. Missionaries are possessed of an absolute devotion to Jesus Christ. ‘Lead a life worthy of the calling to which you have been called, with all humility and gentleness, with patience, bearing with one another in love, making every effort to maintain the unity of the Spirit in the bond of peace,’ Ephesians 4:1-3.”
