First Timothy 2:1 says, "I urge, then, first of all, that petitions, prayers, intercessions and thanksgiving be made for all people." Personally and as the Pavilion of Praise Church, I (we) pray for others all the time and even meet weekly to intercede as the Lord leads. Many of us want to be prayed for but we need more people willing to "stand in the gap" for others. Second Chronicles 7:14 lets us know that if God's people will humble themselves and pray, seek His face, turn from their wicked ways, then heaven opens up and He will heal the land. I am not saying others are not praying. So, don't stand in judgment, but please stand in prayer with us as part of the body of Christ. All to the glory of God!

"When I think of all this, I fall to my knees and pray to the Father, the Creator of everything in heaven and on earth. I pray that from his glorious, unlimited resources he will empower you with inner strength through his Spirit. Then Christ will make his home in your hearts as you trust in him. Your roots will grow down into God’s love and keep you strong. And may you have the power to understand, as all God’s people should, how wide, how long, how high, and how deep his love is. May you experience the love of Christ, though it is too great to understand fully. Then you will be made complete with all the fullness of life and power that comes from God. Now all glory to God, who is able, through his mighty power at work within us, to accomplish infinitely more than we might ask or think. Glory to him in the church and in Christ Jesus through all generations forever and ever! Amen.” (1 Timothy 2:1-4, NLT)
