How to Pray for Missionaries

(By Wilbur Sorley, Assem, India) 

Do not pray, "God Bless all the Missionaries, Amen!" but pray that GOD WILL:

Give them a measure of health that will best glorify Him;
Give grace to overcome the difficulties that may come in their way;
Give them a deepening trust and make them willing to pay the price of consecration;
Give them time to pray and to study their Bibles;
Give them unconquerable determination to go through every obstacle with Him as Guide;
Censor their activities in order that they might spend time and energy in only His important work;
Give self-control in intensive study of the language;
Help them overcome temptations;
Give them strength, wisdom, and guidance in bringing up their children;
Give strength to overcome loneliness, irritations and misunderstandings that may arise because of the environment and circumstances;
Provide for their material needs according to His will.
