Dear saints, let us pray that the saints would get vitalized personally and with a few co-laboring companions to the extent that they would “go fishing” to get some “new fish” (Dan. 1:6; 2 Tim. 2:22). The elders should not try to form the groups in an organizational way. That does not work. They must […]
Let us pray for the saints to “go fishing” to contact people consistently until they gain someone
Dear saints, let us pray that the saints would realize that there are many sinners, many “fish” around them in the place where they live, and would “go fishing” — go contact them consistently week after week until they eventually gain someone (Matt. 4:19; Luke 5:10b).

Let us pray for the saints to proclaim the glad tidings of the gospel of peace
Dear saints, let us pray that the saints would see the urgent need to preach the gospel of peace, the glad tidings that Christ is our peace, our peace offering, and the Peacemaker, the One who broke down the middle wall of partition, the enmity, abolishing in His flesh the law of the commandments in […]

Dear saints, let us pray that the saints would proclaim the glad tidings concerning the wonderful person of Christ and His unsearchable riches (Luke 2:10-11; Acts 5:42; Rom. 1:1-4; Eph. 3:8).
