    Sometimes we wonder how to pray for missionaries and other leaders we have never met. Paul had never met the Colossians, but he faithfully prayed for them. His prayers teach us how to pray for others, whether we know them or not.

We can play a role in their spiritual growth, and even secure God's blessings for them. Intercessory pray accomplishes ...read more
