Thoughts on:
Because of the responsibility of the local pastor to lead, guide, inspire and manage the God’s church, he is continually under attack from Satan to be moved off course. Please note the quotes following about the need for constant prayer for our pastors.
Pastors and other Christian leaders are needy people. But they are God’s chosen ones to move His Kingdom forward. Faithful and intelligent intercession can release them to be all God wants them to be.
Dr. C. Peter Wagner, Author of over 40 books.
As a layperson, you are the key to covering your shepherd in prayer, blessing and protecting him in ministry.
Dr. Terry Teykl, Executive Director of Renewal Ministries.
The Pastor’s Prayer Shield is a series of prayers used by prayer ministers on a daily basis. Each minister is assigned a specific day which rotates monthly. A Pastor’s Prayer Shield Brochure is given which includes the prayers for all seven days of the week (with scripture texts), and a special Pastor’s Prayer Blessing. Using this brochure, the ministers are asked to pray a minimum of 15 minutes per day.
