A Model for Intercessory Prayer

Paul prayed for the Christians in Colossae, even though he had never personally visited them. His prayer included five petitions.

  1. That they might know God’s will

  2. That they might walk worthy of the Lord

  3. That they might be fruitful

  4. That they might grow in their knowledge of God

  5. That they might have patience with joy.

Paul’s prayer in Colossians 1:9-11 shows us how we can pray for each other.
