Remember: Prayer is More Powerful than Money

Many people write me and tell me how much they would like to go on training trips with us, or wish they could give great sums of money to what we are doing overseas.  Given the great needs in the world, we cannot get personally  involved, or give to every project that is presented to us.  We would burn out and go broke very soon.  But we must get involved personally when it comes to our primary missionary concerns.  Our ministry at ITM has benefited from the giving of some Americans who are doing this, and they have been a great blessing to me personally.

I think that the best way to get personally involved is to pray.  What a wonderful, exciting privilege prayer is!  We can affect the course of history thousands of miles away from home by praying for missions right where we are.  I think prayer is more powerful than money;  therefore, we must take prayer partnerships in America and on the mission field a high priority.

Of course, when you pray with your spiritual ears open, God starts prompting you about other ways to get involved in missions.  Prayer is dangerous business!  But I would rather choose the dangerous excitement of being open to God's wonderful surprises over the deadening boredom of living for self!
