Colossians 1:9-10 “For this reason we also, since the day we heard it, do not cease to pray for you, and to ask that you may be filled with the knowledge of His will in all wisdom and spiritual understanding; that you may walk worthy of the Lord, fully pleasing Him, being fruitful in every good work and increasing in the knowledge of God;”

Daily, we come across people who need prayer. It’s easy to pray for people who are in our little circle (spouse, children, parents, and maybe some close friends), but what about everyone else?

The more challenging part is genuinely praying for people who we deal with on a daily basis, but we’re not necessarily close to. It can be a challenge to think of and pray for our supervisors, co-workers, the CEO of the company, customers we deal with, our children’s teachers and coaches. Some of those people make major decisions and they need to be filled with the knowledge of God’s will, wisdom, and spiritual understanding as well.

Instead of only going down our list of needs and desires for ourselves and for those close to us, allow the Holy Spirit to place people in our minds, and pray for them too.

“I’ll pray for you, you pray for me, and watch God change things.”
