Verse: “I am debtor both to the Greeks, and to the barbarians.” – Romans 1:14
Quote: “Quit praying about yourself and be spent for others as the bondslave of Jesus. That is the meaning of being made broken bread and poured-out wine in reality.”
Praying for yourself is not wrong, praying for God’s blessing and direction, etc. But only thinking of yourself in prayer, and denying your responsibility of intercessory prayer for others is wrong. As Christians we often forget that the only reason we are here, the reason God didn’t take us home as soon as we pledged our allegiance to Him, is to serve others and reveal the life and love of Jesus Christ.
