Prayer, an essential part of our Christian faith, is mentioned as one of four things done by the early church in the book of Acts that contributed to the growth of the church (Acts 2:42). Paul, knowing this was consistently praying for, and asking for prayer for the cities he would minister in. In 2 Thessalonians 3:1 he asks, “that the word of the Lord may have free course and be glorified,” and again in Col. 4:3 “praying also for us, that God would open to us a door for the word.” We see the effects of these prayers when Paul states in another place, “For a great and effective door has opened to me” (1 Cor. 16:9). It is necessary then that as Epaphras we are “always laboring fervently…in prayers” to open doors for the word, not just for our missionary brethren overseas, but also for God to set up those Divine gospel appointments in our own lives.
