Our fellowship workers need our prayers because the face so many trials. We can ask Jehovah to help them to endure sickness, natural disasters, civil war, persecution, or other difficulties. We can also pray for our self-sacrificing brothers and sisters who provide relief for those in need. You may personally know some who are facing such challenges. Why not mention them by name in your personal prayers? We show genuine brotherly love by asking Jehovah to help them endure.
Those who take the lead in the congregation greatly appreciate the prayers of others and benefit from them. That was true of the apostle Paul. He wrote: ""Pray also for me, that the words may be given to me when I open my mouth, so that I may be able to speak bodly in making known the sacred secret of the good news." (Ephesians 6:19) Today too we have many hardworking brothers who take the lead among us. We show love for them by asking Jeovah to bless their work.
