Colossians 1:9-14
asking that you may be filled with the knowledge of his will in all spiritual wisdom and understanding, 10 so as to walk in a manner worthy of the Lord, fully pleasing to him, bearing fruit in every good work and increasing in the knowledge of God.
11 May you be strengthened with all power, according to his glorious might, for all endurance and patience with joy, 12 giving thanks [patience, with joy giving thanks] to the Father, who has qualified you to share in the inheritance of the saints in light.
13 He has delivered us from the domain of darkness and transferred us to the kingdom of his beloved Son, 14 in whom we have redemption, the forgiveness of sins.
One of the very striking things about the New Testament is the fervor the people prayed for other people they met in their travels. Of course, Jesus tells us that He is working and His Father is working today.

The Holy Spirit bares witness that the sighs of our spirit are the unceasing prayer of our advocate, God's Son.
Jesus tells us to pray impudently to Our Friend. Pray with Hope. Imagine what we do when we pray for the News we read. The people we pray for. I remember in High School we prayed for my Great Aunt Clarice to have freedom from hip arthritis. Clarice told me she had no pain and somehow knew it was from my youth group. And was. Jesus is not just laying down happy dog paths to say, "Pray with Hope!"
Abba, Father God,
Dwell in us and help us to seek You first.
We pray the most for people who need Your Mercy and Help.

For the work of our hands to be blessed to be

Jesus, we ask for Good Health during the Covid epidemics
in other areas to have Your Mercy.
And in the Astonishing Hope You've asked us to Live,
in Jesus Christ, Our Redemption.
Thank You, Abba, You always listen and act
on our Prayers. In the Highest Name of Jesus. Amen.
