Key word/phrase: Teamwork/Staff Unity
Key Scripture: Ephesians 4:1-3
I therefore, the prisoner in the Lord, beseech you that ye walk worthy of the vocation wherewith ye are called, with all lowliness and meekness, with longsuffering, forbearing one another in love, endeavoring to keep the unity of the Spirit in the bond of peace.
Prayer Guide for Church Members:
“God, help my pastor to be a man who promotes peace and unity in his relationships. I ask especially for his relationships with other staff members, both men and women. Bless him as he strives for true unity with his coworkers. Give him grace to live among others with love, and to be characterized by longsuffering. Make him a man of humility- one who serves others, and a man of meekness- one who is strong but keeps his strength under the control of Your Holy Spirit. Let him be a blessing to those he works with every day, and let those he works with be a blessing to him. Help him to communicate well with his staff, and to give and receive grace in times of miscommunication. Give my pastor joy in serving alongside other men and women who love You and have the same goals and purpose in ministry. In so doing, let him walk worthy of this vocation {pastoring} that You have called him to do. God, make my pastor a man who promotes peace and unity in his relationships. In Jesus’ name, amen.”
