One thing we learn from Ephesians is that Paul had faithful men whom he trusted to help spread the gospel and support him in his ministry. These men often went off to pastor their own churches! Let Paul be our example — he surrounded himself with faithful men of God. Likewise, we should surround ourselves with godly companions!

Have you ever thought about how faithfully Paul served the Lord, even from prison? In today’s study, Pastor Jeff explains how strong Paul’s ministry was, even when he was in chains.

We can all learn from the example of Paul. No matter what circumstances he was in, Paul praised the Lord. Pastor Jeff encourages us to remember that the Lord is teaching us lessons through good and bad situations alike. Remember Paul’s words in Philippians 1:12: “what has happened to me has really served to advance the gospel.”

There are several types of prayer in Ephesians, but intercessory is one of the most important! As we begin part two of our study on praying for others, Pastor Jeff shows us many passages asking believers to pray specifically on someone else’s behalf. We are to follow this example, and offer prayers of intercession for others!

The church is the bride of Christ! We are not individuals; we are one body. We need each other. As we work together, pooling our prayers and spiritual gifts, God works in mighty ways through the church. Pray for the Lord to stir up the body of Christ to become prayer warriors for Him.

Satan isn’t new at his games. He knows our weaknesses and struggles, and he preys upon them. Pastor Jeff warns us against getting caught off-guard and deceived. We can avoid this by standing fast in the protection of the Word of God.

Are you weak when it comes to prayer? Sometimes we find ourselves stumped in the face of prayer. We don’t know how to ask the Lord for the things we need. But all we have to do is come humbly before Him. He will give us the words to say, and He will provide everything we need.
