At the same time, pray also for us, that God may open to us a door for the word, to declare the mystery of Christ, on account of which I am in prison— that I may make it clear, which is how I ought to speak.
Colossians 4:3-4
Father God, I pray today that You would open up opportunities for me to share with someone how great and marvelous You are! I am willing to go wherever You send me and do whatever it takes to let others know what You have done for me! I recognize that the enemy seeks to thwart Your plans and to put roadblocks in the way. Through hardships, discouragement and disappointment, I can easily be deterred from my appointed course, doubt raising up in my mind as I ask myself the question, “Did God really say?” Yet today I refuse to allow those tapes to play in my head. I refuse to see the challenges before me as obstacles, but instead choose to see them as opportunities for You to show Yourself mighty! Open my eyes, LORD, revealing me how my circumstances will be used by You to open up to me the opportunity to speak life into someone’s situation. Show me how my present condition does not imprison me nor prevent me from being an effective witness but instead validates my calling to those looking on. Help me to declare the mystery of Christ Jesus clearly, pointing others towards a life of faith in Him. LORD, use me today to be a herald of good news to the lost that You might be lifted up in all the earth! I pray this in Jesus’ Name!
