Here are prayer points for pastors and their family that you can use to pray.
The pastor and his family need your prayer as much as you need theirs.
Everybody thinks the pastor has no problem or challenge with his life and family.
He himself sees himself that way, talks that way and behave that way.
But that’s not always so.
He bears the burdens of people, pray and labor over people while nobody seems to care about him and his family’s need.
Hmm!!!
The pastor has needs, he has family challenges, he is faced with real life issues and situations.
He has a wife and or husband and children too to attend to and meet their needs.
Plus, the devil hated his guts and wants to kick him at every turn just so he may discredit him and the gospel of Christ and God that he teaches, preaches and stands for.
For your information, the pastor and his family are the prime target of Satan anywhere in the world.
Satan goes after them like no other and then when he is not able to touch the pastor himself or herself, he goes for their children – family.
So, you see, the pastor needs more prayer than you do.
Pastors and their family need you to pray for them always just as much as they pray for you.
Said enough.
Now, this list of prayer points for pastors and their family will help you cover your pastor and his family well in the place of prayer.
Ready to travail for your pastor and his family in the place of prayer?
