Як служили ж вони Господеві та постили, прорік Святий Дух: Відділіть Варнаву та Савла для Мене на справу, до якої покликав Я їх! Тоді, попостивши та помолившись, вони руки поклали на них, і відпустили. (Дії 13:2-3 Ukrainian)
O LORD, your name is known all over the earth! We come to you with hearts full of praise as we humbly bring our petitions before your throne. Please have mercy on the people of Ukraine who are in the path of the firestorm being unleashed by the leader of the Russian Federation. Protect the innocent children from any further injuries and help the sane leaders to bring about a quick and lasting peace. Give boldness and wisdom to leaders in the Church to continue sending out workers for the Gospel of Christ. We ardently pray in the precious name of Jesus, Amen.
The preceding illustration from freebibleimages.org shows how Barnabas and Saul/Paul were sent out by the church in Antioch on this first missionary journey to preach the word of God. Today’s churches must continue sending out workers devoted to living for Jesus Christ and proclaiming the truth of God’s word that brings salvation to lost souls.
[Please continue to pray for those in Ukraine, especially the Christians].
