How Much Time Does the Above-Average Leader Spend in Prayer? I've never considered being called average a compliment. I think it means you're just as close to the bottom as on top.I don't believe God meant for you to be average.
Read more…9 Reasons Church Leaders Struggle With Prayer Written by Chuck Lawless Stock Free Images John, a leader in a church I assisted as a consultant, admitted to me what I’d heard before from seminary students and church leaders alike: “Dr. Lawless, I don’t always pray like I should. I know better, but prayer isn’t easy.” I’ve heard something similar so many times that I’ve begun asking for more details. These findings are anecdotal, but here are my general conclusions about why church leaders…

Read more…Why We Need More ‘Chaplains’ and Fewer Leaders . What’s a pastor for? Mark Galli Eugene Peterson put it this way in The Contemplative Pastor: . “The primary language of the cure of souls … is conversation and prayer.

Pre-Order Your Copy of Prayer Points for Pastors, by Audrey L. Dowling at www.prayerwallspi.org $15.95 + tax!
God will always use leaders in the lives of His people! We need our leaders whole and functioning at the highest capacity of their gifting and calling at all times. This will require focused, anointed, and specific prayer and intercession that goes on for them regularly!!
As the Body of Christ, most of us have not been cultured to automatically pray for our pastors. Pastors don’t always ask for prayer and many members may not feel comfortable praying for them. We need a renewed culture where prayer for the pastor is encouraged and taught. Prayer Points for Pastors: A Tool for Pastors and Their Intercessors will help both pastors and their intercessors alike by offering important prayer points to consider during intercession. If pastors are upheld in prayer, the Body of Christ will win MAJOR battles, regain lost ground, and recover all. (Exodus 17:11; 1 Samuel 30:8)
I pray for all of the wonderful pastors that give their lives for the the sheep! Lord, anoint them now. Replenish and restore the virtue that has gone out today! Ease their minds right now of the troubles at hand. Speak the very Word into their hearts, that they are each in need of! Amen!
