Pray for Me
“ Who’s Going to Pray for Me? ” by Crystal Wallace.
Your copy should address 3 key questions: Who am I writing for (audience)? Why should they care (benefit)? What do I want them to do (call-to-action)?
Create a great offer by adding words like “free,” “personalized,” “complimentary,” or “customized.” A sense of urgency often helps readers take action, so consider inserting phrases like “for a limited time only” or “only 7 remaining!”
I was eight months pregnant with our second child and we had invited friends for supper that evening. We had just taken our places around the table, blessed the food, and taken our first few bites when my water broke! Yes, at the kitchen table with guests, baby girl #2 decided she was coming early. Twenty-three days early to be exact! Needless to say, our meal was interrupted as I had to quickly pack a bag and my husband and I headed off to the hospital, leaving our guests with our 3 ½ year old.
The labor and delivery went very quickly (an hour and a half total) because, as we would soon find out, baby girl was in distress. She was born not breathing and had to be intubated. Although the doctor was unsure as to why she was in distress, he explained that my body knew the baby needed to be delivered as soon as possible and “Mother Nature” did her thing. He also told us that she had an infection that if left untreated, could turn into meningitis. That meant that we had to leave our baby at the hospital and she was 16 days old before we could take her home.
Some weeks later, a close friend and prayer warrior called to see how we were doing. I told her what had happened and that our baby had arrived on May 25, 1988. She told me that that particular week, she had a heavy burden of prayer for us and had stormed heaven on our behalf. That told me that it wasn’t “Mother Nature” that caused me to go into labor, it was our Heavenly Father.
It is possible to find ourselves in a situation where we don’t know what to pray, or we don’t have the strength to pray for ourselves. At those times we may ask, “Who is going to pray for me?” I have seen it happen many times in my life that God would lay a burden on the heart of someone else to pray for me.
There was a song I remember hearing as a little girl and the chorus came back to my heart when I read the topic of this article. It goes like this:
Someone is praying for you.
Someone is praying for you.
So when it seems you’re all alone
And your heart will break in two,
Remember, someone is praying for you!
Matthew 10:29, 31
29 Are not two sparrows sold for a farthing? and one of them shall not fall on the ground without your Father…
31 Fear ye not therefore, ye are of more value than many sparrows
God loves YOU! He knows WHAT you need, WHEN you need it, and He knows WHO to impress to pray for you. Somebody will be praying for you!
