of the chart missionaries week,
we've increased the number of
missionaries about 17 sent
missionaries and therefore I
with three
of the other teams are are for
two different missionaries so we
got of the salmon's in the cop
rules of the cindy's and dismay

, campbell's and radar to react

pairings of the missionaries and
so
, all were asking you to do is

, so wary eye and it's where you
started on the front in here and
we are Kana and eight in the
afterglow of low bit of our
mission conference
of tonight upward and talk about
trade for missionaries as not
just is not just enough for us
to a give our money and then
wipe 
and on Sunday a Sunday morning
I'm gonna preach of message
about those who were called to
stay and the am and where talk
about w
, does that mean that were off
the hook of the dead but what
does it mean if were called to
stay and were talk about that on
Sun
in fact said that he did they
have become a part of our
Christian book at doing really
only in the last 3 to 400 year
, some words were to the words
you you were to come from
foreign missions and
missionaries come from well, are
in English word n
at the eve of the etymology of
the word
at tells us that that admissions
was first used in the English
sometime around 1600 and that by
1729
, so all 129 years later that
word missions, was used in terms
of World Bank was a share today
missions simply means reaching
people of all races all cultures
all countries with the gospel of
Jesus Christ will we talk about
cultures and countries and and
while I'm there let me be quick
to say
that not everything that calls
itself and nations meets the
criteria of that week is spelled
out
and said just because somebody
calls themselves of missionary
at doesn't mean that they really
meet of what we would say would
be at the Biblical
qualifications those who are
sense of two wh
we've been honored by the ward
at that he wouldn't trust us
with the stewardship of sharing
the gospel where we are
and in taking part with getting
the gospel around the world
tonight as we look in seconds
testimony in chapter three
were defined in our tax that if
the writer of this
passage is Paul were actually
gone to focus in on just the
first verse of this chapter
of the Apostle Paul out was set
forth by god cost set aside set
apart, by his local church to
church in Antioch and they were
se
on paul's first missionary
journey
he traveled approximately 1400
miles on a second journey about
2800 miles
on its third about 2700 miles it
has been estimated that over the
course of his missionary life
the Apostle Paul travel 13,009
and that's equivalent to about
halfway around the world is
actually more
of them halfway around the world
all about 13,000 miles was done
before there were cars
and trains and planes
and out about you got out and
track and I am trying to lose
some weight get back on girlish
figure's 1:00 AM working on here
and
, my for my watch tracks
missteps and yet I'm not sure
the track of missteps relief
that meet but do anything to
lose weight + c
so there's a correlation that
somehow not getting the Apostle
Paul Biden track is Stasi
contract is miles out but he
wets he wen
a horse are a donkey and some
point that I don't know
but what I do know is that in
the new testament the Apostle
Paul depicts the missionary
model he defines the missionary
mandate 
if we just got
on Sunday when we received our
faith promise commitments and
just said OK we talked about
missions for the year and now
we're no
at not only and are giving that
we would not follow through a 88
in our care in our concern
for what god is careful and
concerned about and that is the
souls of men
and so I did tonight in this
particular verse that when a
rehearing just a moment I want
you to see that call at the end
and thi
look at his words it in chapter
three inverse one
of second vessel on NTS is
finally brethren trade for us
that the word of the lord may
have three course and be
glorified
even as it is
with you
want lesser time tonight
helpless to consider what we
learned this evening and put it
into practice as we prayed of
fur missiona
every single word in this
statement that call makes it in
verse three in this request that
he makes
at is instructed its
enlightening and I want you to
see basically three elements
from from this verse that teach
us how that we 
firm missionaries first of all I
want you see the first element
that he talks about
what are the partners Paul says
to the believers at a vessel and
I could finally Brendan Fraser
us pause asking these believers 
you remember that Aaron and her
held up the hands of Moses and
in the same fashion missionaries
need those who will hold them up
pause words indicate that he
needed people praying for an
all missionaries need people who
will partner with them in prayer
looking closer at his words I
want you to see the importance o
Paul Paul starts this this
particular request with the word
finally
finally now somebody once said
if you hear pastors say finally
or in conclusion was that means
absolutely nothing right and
that
we are a little I have one more
very very important thing that I
wanna talk to you about I have
the last issue at hand call was 
it was more than a passing comet
Paul was saying I spoken you
about other matters but I've got
one more very very important
thin
here in its
prey for us
pray for us
the greatest need of the
missionaries people who pray for
them we've also heard
missionaries say the
week we all heard missionaries
if you've been around church
very long at all and you've been
added to enlistment of
missionaries
they will sometimes say in and
out and I wanna believe they all
mean it's
they will sometimes say
that raise the matter is more
than we need your money we need
your prayers
without question missionaries
need our money
no missionary can go to feel the
goddess called into two or do
the work that that god has led
them to do unless they're
financia
the missionary supply is god but
god uses his people to supply
their financial needs and it's
important as this financial
suppor
prayer is even more important
in fact quite honestly prayer is
essential in every christian's
life term and if you would would
agree with that prayer is essen
at eight at prayer is essential
in every church in every
Christian
but especially for the
missionary
but at a missionary to China of
another generation said this all
movements of the spirit of god
in China within our experience m
and cannot tell you that
anything of god that any of us
is ever seen
can be traced back to prayer if
those not if there's no prayer
behind it we can really honestly
doubt that what we saw was a wor
if the missionaries gonna see
got to work in a people in a
culture in a country they must
have people praying for them
what they see happen will be but
be because of prayer because
they prayed and because others
prayed with them in the same
thing 
having people praying for most
important business for every
missionary
but not only do we see of paul's
that initial
importance that the accord see
places on
these prayer partners I want to
see I want to be involved
the involvement of prayer
pernice to lead the gas to pray
finally to
brighter and brighter and pray
for us he's pleading with his
brother he's calling on the
spiritual family to get involved
in his
that is particular word prayer
that Paul use a series of is a
form of prayer found a new
testament is that word that is
oftentim
and if a witness for six Paul
Ratliff levine's the cattle for
not for nothing but in
everything by prayer in
supplication with t
it if Asian 618 he says praying
always with all prayer in
supplication
the words speaks of something
that is lacking is the idea of
and need supplication is is
praying about that needs between
Paul w
and his ministry
and he he says pray and a decent
use that word for trade for us
it is a particular grade word
that means
at two attacks or to be around
so what Paul is asking the
believers a pass and mike and to
do was attached themselves to
animate
in prayer
a tax consultant to surround him
with their prayers
there's a lady does have been
writing songs for 4050 years
and she wrote these words listen
to all
their walls made by man built by
frail and human hands
that an enemy can scale and get
to you
but there is one protecting me
from my greatest enemy
it's a wall that Satan can break
through
sometimes a wall of grace
sometimes a wall of faith
other times it's sweet mercy
that I need
but the one for which I long it
makes all the other strong
I need a wall of prayer show
rounding me
what was the involvement of Paul
soften his brethren
he was asking them to be a wall
of prayer
surrounding him
that he was asking them to take
his need to god in prayer
not not gonna ask you to raise
your hands are a call about but
that was the last time
you read a missionary letter
saw and need that was mentioned
and prayed specifically
for that need how many times
have you gotten on your knees
and call the name of the
missionary to god
in prayer and ask god to be with
that mission Amy and meet their
needs
while we're in our conference we
gave you that that out we gave
you these prayer of these be set
that
the prayer counter to put it
would put on the inside of a
trifle but had I had some of
these laminated at the death
toll just sa
and use that as a place mat
and so I had some of these
laminated and and my suggestion
to use it
would be you know I have
somebody they wanna get one use
a place mat and everyplace into
cable but
if you beyond family was some
kids I think it's got a cool
idea to put it
at whoever's place and lead them
prey on that day and I got out
that four of them, AT&T has
allowed no one is my house
that's al
one of these mother in the year
by your OM relationship to me
you're disqualified I'll give
you one
I am somebody else will one day
Mario their ego, giving Marne a
motion when all way back to you
but there is a how did you pick 
this that are on this prayer
calendar and by the way if you
want one of these if you let me
know those cost $2.49
to laminate day
and the and here's what will the
life of
that we had those laminated town
but I found on Amazon
that I can buy a bit be a
laminating pouches
four are about 15 bucks for
hundred which makes about 15
students are stuck you know, so
you guys got the expensive ones
but if 
how many of you would like to
have and would you use them at
your household a hand up about
it in the BC: Heineken Allegheny
Cou
I read it out in your section
right here Geneva account in the
front half here, Benny which you

and
that again but you Gotta buy and
by hundred but I just found that
a waste of the speech when those
things that we print process 
so if you like that I just did
what if you not any use of my
you know that's just what is but
I'll tell Ya
there are eight it's divided
Monday through Friday if you
look at it on your all on your
at a conference folder is just
five day
read a letter from the week that
you're working on trade and
foreign share some of those
needs
, and I'm telling you pray and
for them it's a big deal it's a
big deal
I came across by the way a
method of actually praying for
missionaries that uses an
acronym of the word blacks BLK
SS a right
so that if you think about be
obvious as you can pray for
missionaries this way for the
for the bee pray for their body
that's t

their upkeep their health strong

being held as an excellent Alt

as his first for the first to
see wait for social it's the
idea of asking god to give them
some new relationships at its

up to love him and to seek and

by him and stay in the word ask 
cannot tell you how are you pray

particular work verse year 88
are the petitions the petitions
Paul Molly Astor prayer partners
but he's asking them to pray in
a
he needs their prayers up for
sure and he saying there's a
specific things that I want you
to pray for his dissertation
involves
paul's message was a word that
came from from award you we all
understand a recognized only
that the them the missionary in
mess
it's a message that originates
from the lard and his message
was the word of god and soap
concerning the war toward he
asked people to pray that the
word award may have three
course now as we look closer and
we'll see in these words first
of all that he was running a
race
he was run a race the words free
course come from a Greek word
which means to run add the word
was sometimes use to describe a
r
getting people at eight intent
to add to know Christ the savior
was not part of his life it wise
his life and so like a runner i
Paul was asking people to pray
that as he preached
that in there and is he preached
the word of the lord he be able
to reach as many people as it
could he was running as fast as
h
running as fast as it could to
reach everyone to be. But the
word was also not just use for
runners it was also used of
messenge
to those who were waiting on the
other side so Paul not only some
self as a runner competing for
the souls of man but also as a 
remember the message was the
word Alar and call was taking
the word award into enemy
territory
he was going into lands where
idolatry and pagan religions
were the norm
Paul had been sent to take the
gospel to people in spiritual
darkness and so when we pray for
missionaries
we need to pray that the word
award will have three course as
we do where praying that god
will use them to see as many
people s
why because every missionary
is in the same bowl we are every
missionary
is on our race of time every
missionary
is on a race of time there for
their own life of the lives of
people are reaching
we at missionaries here in our
church family that we love very
much
who are retired they came to the
end of their race in that field
that they run out of people to
win no
but they came to the place where
they could no longer do that
work in that place in god is has

I don't have very much longer
has to fill the shoes
and that's what god and used by
that new stores. The shoes all
over the world
and missionaries will we need to
pray for the missionaries that
they can stay as long as they
possibly can but then we need to
p
in which they have to reach
people and only up by the way
Jesus could come any moment
of the message but it's still
true
cells were praying that as of
tonight the A's you pray for
mission is pray that they that
the tape the massive the gospel
and taken to people of
different, culture and different
believe different from tradition
that they will be range with a
gospel
but not only do we need a trade
for the race there running when
you to pray for the pace
that their running
you see the tense of the words
indicate a constant and continue
was raised there really was no
finish line here call was asking
the work of the missionary is
constant and continuous
there not on vacation in some
foreign land that I sent a draft
of a lot of classes to a lot of
potential missionaries night I
sa
if you if you're not winning
people where you are now if
you're not talking to people
about the war if you're not
sharing of the
ease in another culture it just
doesn't happen if you don't have
a burden here know what happened
to air
you will have a better
the the missionaries are in a
race for the sols a man and the
pace can be demanding an
exacting and by the way the
savings to wh
these missionaries need not on
the power of god on their
messages
and they also need god's
strength to keep on
in the work
so the pace of ministry
we need to pray for yes there's
the money they have to raise
that often requires travel miles
and miles and miles and days and
days and days of travel their
personal sacrifices that that th

who rule after the field 100 150
years ago some of them left
knowing they wouldn't see their

am afraid someone say that
prices too high and that price
for the gospel is too high a
price these days
but they didn't think so
we need to pray a firm
missionaries today and pray that
god will help them to run their
race and maintain the pace that
their ra
for the first element we see
from this verse about effective
prayer for missionaries of the
exhibit will be talk about the
part 
up for the patient for the race
and finally very quickly
the final element to pray for
them
is the element of understanding
the purpose and that's what we
see here there was a purpose
behind called request
when he asked them for these
petitions
he asked the bread and to pray
for me ask that they pray that
the word award may have three
course and wine easy asking what
is 
event of the word war began five
even as it is
with you
call was in seeking Gloria or
fame for himself
he's not asking their prayers
just resolve personal benefit he
was concerned about others and
look in the war
for glorified pictures that
triumphant arrival of god's
Glory a string in an unborn is
vandalizing places where the
message of t
about that at about where they
are
not what Jesus did for them
, see Taylor Nellie tonight, but
I'll tell you
it
that way it is, if young men
Taylor Melanie you need a
meeting of they've been they've
been coming faithfully now four
few month
and he was so confused about so
many things
and then we sat down for us and
we sat down with them if ever an
upscale arena responded when he
got saying I mean he was like h
not seen all kinds of responses
when people get saying out I'm
seen people cry your scene and
then some of some folks just
begin
I see people get excited latinas
out we even had one lady and
just got mad
and cannot configure that when I
get your with mail now we're
gaining a year with me on that
with Betty Levis bother you
remembe
I just cannot both
I can't believe that that it was
gonna let me go to hell I cannot
believe it at that preacher was
not picked for 3540 airs at ha
happened to be saying that she
was to adopt eye and tell you
there's something absolutely
amazing when people get saying
and it 
to unite Jason
is here tonight I am seeing in a
com port on Sunday morning
he had saved Sunday's been
coming for a few weeks
on Sunday afternoon Jason Thome
on the way home
call people
told the guy and say that he he
was too nervous to tell us
in public on Sunday morning
but on the way home on Sunday
afternoon he's on the phone
call and folks telling them that
he got saying I'm telling you
god gets boring
god gets Glory in that
Paul was in seeking
glorification from self
missionaries go to places they
go to people who are under the
rule that got this wor
and the Apostle Paul and facts
as a Sybase chapter for that the
god of this world have blinded
the minds of them which believe
n
that all the missionaries not to
make Americans out of its the
Golan missionaries not that each
and the song that all American h
of play is pray that the word of
the lord will have three course
the work of old missionary is
all about more find out and
havin
and in this we see the result of
sharing the word Paul spoke at
the end result in the final
words
of that first verse he says even
as it is with few
the ones
to whom call was asking to pray
it that the people he was asking
for
prayers from that may be a
better way to say it
he was he was reminding them
you have been brought from death
to life you then brought from
darkness to light
and so what I'm asking is that
as you heard and receive the
gospel want to pray that others
what herein receive the gospel
in th
they were the lives that would
be changed people who'd be saved
as a result of sharing the word
toward the Donley does it talk a
that ring the matter is souls
that our savior not the ultimate
reward for the missionary
service
it is of lesser award is the
purpose for which we go but the
ultimate reward is that god is
glorify
bind every action and motive of
the missionary is the goal of
god be more fun
it should be the purpose that
drives every believer in what
they'd do
is not about us
it never was about us
it's always been about him
and there's no greater ward and
knowing the god of receive Glory
from what we've done
because we were faithful
to go to the people that he
loves
in the street
of the of almighty god and the
power of the spirit of god to
preach the message of the word
of god and see how god
does amazing things
and so enclosing was me
and it finally know if you'd be
done within one was a
tonight let me say prayer is
essential for every believer
it's critical to your life in my
life to pray
and calls word reminders that
prayer is also critical to life
in the service of the missionary
it's a bible that a missionary
have those who are lifting up
their name in prayer
so I would ask you tonight
the you hear the voice of the
missionaries
not the Apostle Paul consider
the ones you met last week
and said the others that we
support some 140
in our church family
can you hear mall
brother and
pray for us
in the year and
their asking you
are asking you
can hear and brother and
brother and pray for us
that the word award may have
recourse and the glorify
even as it is with you
now
we're gonna take a few moments
tonight
and the owned by the bills,
comer a share for requests and
do the things that we normally
do
for the beginning the sirs
number to close
the service of prayer and one of
the things I like to ask each
one of you to be tonight
we'd like to have
101215
individuals only to these
missionary family's
we ask you not to be on more
than one
of the 17th aside not more than
two GB on two that run up to be
on more than two cities will we
like to have
12 or 15
on every one of the seventeens
now that would take
them
8020 will more people, two to
make that happen, but soon
I wonder if you tonight would
you pray
as we go to if we close of the
service would you pray and some
ward
your me to be involved
I'll pray for missionaries all
use
of use my prayer
calendar and operate the
missionaries
who would you pray god be what
we'd be a little more
specific in my prayers
and get involved with one or two
missionaries
decide the person team
that means that you are if you
ever have a missionary on your
city mask you to help raise
money
of let me know because the
missionaries all know that
that's not once in teams about
the 17 is for prayer care in
encouragement
that's really what the 17 is all
about
its knowing that there somebody
in the church family that they
can connect with
the voice only one of the ways
to connect nowadays face books
old school now you can
use the medium of film in
everything from
from the faced kind of do well
with them how many did Marco
polo the Biennale Marco polo as
of yet he's the guy who drops
again 
com I just via a it's it's
pretty amazing
of missionaries campaign that
line
from just about anyplace in the
world and be willing to share
their per request share their
hearts in the week and know in
real 
specific things that they want
us to pray for maybe tonight
would only close out our season
of prayer this evening from a
