One of the things I love about the Bible is the fact that God is no respecter of persons.

And God uses people that are famous and he uses people that are unknown.

He uses rich people. He uses poor people. He uses people that you can think about at the drop of a hat.

I know that name in the Bible, and he uses people

that are just relative footnotes because really, in the will of God, everybody is important.

We're going to talk about one of those people today. Welcome to Everyday Truth with Kurt Skelie.

We believe the Bible is true and relevant to everyone, everywhere, every day.

Thanks for listening.

Now, let's join Kurt for today's episode.

Good morning, my friends. We are right at the very end of the book of

Ephesians, and we've slowed way down for two reasons. Number one, these are just some really rich

verses that command and demand our attention. And number two, I wanted to neatly finish at the

end of the week. So that's part of it too. So here we are in Ephesion 6. And we've been talking about

prayer and how important it is for us to pray for each other and to pray even for our spiritual leaders. Isn't it interesting

that the Apostle Paul, he was their spiritual leader. He was the bold reason why they were saved,

many of them, because Paul had gone to Ephesus and he had boldly proclaimed the gospel there.

You read all about that in Acts chapter 19.

But here he's saying, would you pray for me?

And I think that's important that even as a leader that we say to people that are looking to us for leadership,

hey, but I need, I need God's help and pray for me.

And that's a measure of humility, isn't it? So we've talked a bit about prayer and praying for each other.
