PRAYER: THE POWER BEHIND EVANGELISM
Wednesday, November 11, 2026
Listen to Today's Word
Scripture: Colossians 4:3 "Pray also for us, that God may open a door for the word."
Meditation: Prayer opens doors for the Gospel. Before we speak to people about Jesus, we can speak to God about them. Souls are won on your knees before your mouth speaks.
The Apostle Paul understood the importance of prayer in evangelism. Even as he preached the Gospel, he asked believers to pray that God would open doors for the Word and give him opportunities to make Christ known.
Prayer prepares hearts, creates opportunities, and strengthens us to share the Gospel with boldness. It also helps us become sensitive to the Holy Spirit's guidance so that we can recognize the right moments to speak.
Do not underestimate the power of praying for people who have not yet received Christ. Mention their names before God, ask Him to open doors for meaningful conversations, and pray that their hearts will be ready to receive the truth.
Let evangelism begin in your prayer life. Pray faithfully, trust God to open doors, and be ready to walk through them when He gives you the opportunity.
Pray for opportunities, boldness, and hearts ready to receive.
Reflection:
- Pray for opportunities, boldness, and hearts ready to receive.
Who are you consistently praying for to know Jesus? Have you asked God to open an opportunity for you to share the Gospel with them? What can you do to become more intentional in praying for the lost?

~ I'm enabled By the Power of the Holy Spirit, In Jesus Christ's name, Amen ~
