## Written prayer

Thank you father for your word that teaches me how to live and what to expect. You never muzzle the ox when he is treading the grain. As he grinds out the grain it is appropriate for them to be nourished in order for them to have the strength as they continue to tread the grain. The same way the workmen are not to be deprived of proper sustenance and receive compensation for their labors, neither are those who labour in the word and your mission field. Those that are committed to preaching and teaching your word are the lord’s ploughmen. They work alongside him to break up the fallow grounds of men’s hearts, and sow the seeds of righteousness into their souls. As they labour in hope with the Lord they should also be partakers of the same hope given to others. You are just and fair and are pleased with those who plow in hope, as they should, to enjoy the fruit of their labours. You are a rewarder of those who seek you and provide for those who dedicate their lives to serving you. As I labour to reach the lost with the word of truth and I’m faithful to strengthen them in righteousness it is only fair I should hope to be provided with food and shelter for family and myself. In Jesus name, amen.
