Does your Pastor preach what you want to hear, or does he tell you something that may make you a little angry because of your sin. Pray he has boldness to speak the truth.
We desperately need revival. It starts with you and me. Pray for the men in the pulpit who have the influence to start revival. Pray also, that if there are false ministers in your church that God will remove them or that you will see and move where the Holy Spirit leads you.
2 Timothy 4:3-4 – For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but after their own lusts shall they heap to themselves teachers, having itching ears; And they shall turn away their ears from the truth, and shall be turned unto fables.
Today, Pray for your brothers and sisters in Christ. Especially praying for your Pastor.
Pastors have many things on their minds. Their family, all the trials of each member of their congregation, and problems we know nothing about.
They have so many burdens and they uplift everyone in times of sorrow and joy. Pray for strength, wisdom and Holy Spirit power in their lives. Then give them a word of encouragement.
Also, never bring a problem of yours to them before they are ready to preach. That quenches the Spirit. Wait. Your Pastor wants to be there for you. You need to be there for him.
Pastors need prayer. Especially on Sunday morning when they are preparing to preach so that people may be saved, and Christians may be fed God’s word.
To often we expect our Pastor to be perfect. He has a great burden on his shoulders. He has his family, all of the congregation, including you on his heart and mind.
Today, instead of looking for something to complain about in him, let us pray that our pastor will be filled with the Holy Spirit.
Go to church with determination to uplift the Pastor with prayer and encouragement.
Praying always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit, and watching thereunto with all perseverance and supplication for all saints; Ephesians 6:18 KJV
Do you pray for your Pastor? Pastors have great responsibility. They have problems in their lives, just like all of us.
They have a family, that alone is is challenging. Wife, children, siblings and maybe aging parents. Then they have the congregation and take on the joys and sorrows of maybe hundreds of people. Not to mention the meetings, counseling and other events in the community they feel they have to attend.
Many pastors cannot deal with all the problems that come with being a Pastor. Please take a few minutes out of your busy schedule and pray for your pastor right now. If you know more than one pastor pray for them also. Pray that they will be filled with the Holy Spirit as they preach and teach.
Then pray that when you go to church you will have an open heart and a listening ear to hear what the man of God has to say.
God gave us the Pastor of our church to help us get through hard times. The Pastor officiates at our wedding, celebrates the birth of our children, prays with us in sickness and sorrows, and at the death of a loved one.
All the time having the same problems we have in his own family. He needs our prayers. Take a few minutes and pray for him today.
Pray he will have power of the Holy Spirit to preach the truth. Pray he will not be distracted by people or circumstances. Pray God will comfort him as he has the burden of his own but also takes the burdens of his whole congregation.
Most of all do not have roast preacher for lunch. Do not talk negatively about him or his family. Let us love our Pastor and show him our appreciation.

If you are physically going to church today or watching a service virtually one thing to remember, we worship our Heavenly Father.
It is wonderful to be in the family of God. Today, pray especially for your Pastor and the leaders of your church. Pray for the Holy Spirit to fill them to preach the truth. People need to be saved and become part of the family of God.
1 John 3:1-2 – Behold, what manner of love the Father hath bestowed upon us, that we should be called the sons of God: therefore the world knoweth us not, because it knew him not.
