Ephesians 6:19

Pray also for me, that whenever I speak, words may be given me so that I will fearlessly make known the mystery of the gospel

From Background Notes [BN] for Aug 16th & 17th written by Pastor Bob Brown:

A certain swallowing of pride precedes our request for prayer from each other. Even soldiers need prayer, mighty and strong, equipped and ready though they be. A well-armed and fit soldier, sleeping at night, is at the mercy of the watchman.

 

He is as vulnerable to the enemy as any weak-willed civilian, unless his fellow soldiers stay alert and keep watch. It is the same with the Christ followers. Apart from a shared and persistent experience of corporate prayer to sustain us, we fail to "take our stand" as we should.  [BN, 17]
