'workers together with him' [II Corinthians 6:1]
'workers together with him'. Do you wonder sometimes why we need to pray when God is all-knowing and all-powerful and only gives what is for our ultimate good? Why not just sit back and trust Him to work out His purposes and praise Him for every circumstance that comes our way? An answer to these questions is in today's verse. Those who love the Lord are God's fellow workers. And one of the jobs they have to do is to pray. God works in answer to prayer! Another responsibility workers with Him have is to bear a good witness or testimony for Him. Earlier words of the Apostle speak of imploring those who are away from the Lord to be reconciled to God. The Lord looks to every co-worker in His body to play their part.
