Our souls set alight for God... What a wonderful thought for today, and a powerful use of prayer. Pastor E.M. Bounds wrote: "Prayer opens possibilities for the spread of the gospel.... Prayer makes the gospel move with glorious speed. It moves with God's power and with saintly swiftness." Have we ever considered the fact that prayer should be the first step we take as we witness to others, or send missionaries to distant lands? Those missionaries pray for resources and guidance before taking their first step and setting out to answer the call. Our prayers for them are equally important, and by praying we are stepping out with them to obey the will of God.
