Use What You Have Been Given
Jan 7, 2026 Carter Conlon

When I think about my father’s life, I see what it means to live for a cause that is greater than yourself. He had dreams of being an architect, a builder, an inventor, but he laid it all down in World War II as a volunteer to fight for the freedom of others.

His sacrifice reminds me of Christ, who left heaven to redeem those who could not save themselves. There is an enemy who still seeks to steal, to kill, and to destroy. Yet God has given you and me words of life and the power to stand in prayer.

You might not be on the battlefield, but your prayers can still reach into enemy territory. Use now what you have been given to fight for those who are still trapped in darkness. Join with us every Wednesday night at 7 p.m. Eastern Time at the Worldwide Prayer Meeting at itstimetopray.org, as people from all over the world are gathering now and believing God.

It’s time to pray
