“A Supplicant For Saints”

Saturday, September 21, 2024

Key Verse

  “Epaphras, who is one of you, a servant of Christ, saluteth you, always labouring fervently for you in prayers, that ye may stand perfect and complete in all the will of God” (Colossians 4:12).Text — Colossians 4:7-13

Message

A supplicant is someone who makes petition before God on behalf of another. Epaphras is one of the supplicants in the New Testament. Such a Christian is concerned about others who need God’s intervention. As a child of God, we can follow the “GOM” pattern in our prayer – (God, Others, Myself). Prayer is the best gift we can give to fellow believers. The love of Christ constrains us to pray for those who are sick, suffering, afflicted, the backslider, church leaders and the rulers in our nation. Like Epaphras, believers must pray for the new converts, revivals, programmes and projects of the Church. We are to pray for our institutions, teachers, classmates, neighbours, parents, friends and foes. 

Through intercession, we can achieve much for God. Empathy will enable us to pray effectively for others. Let us bother about others. The Bible commands that you should “Bear ye one another’s burdens, and so fulfil the law of Christ” (Galatians 6:2). Bring solution to other believers’ problems through your supplication. God’s love constrains us to pray for other saints like Epaphras did.
