People of the Fine Printਨਮੂਨਾ

Epaphras isn’t a name most people remember. But Paul mentions him with deep respect—not for his preaching, but for his prayer life. He didn’t lead a movement, plant a church, or write a Gospel. What he did was pray—consistently, fervently, and invisibly.

Paul says Epaphras was “wrestling in prayer.” That’s a strong word. He wasn’t casually praying before bed—he was engaged in spiritual battle, lifting up the church, believing for their strength and growth. He wasn’t on the stage, but he was shaking heaven.

Intercessors like Epaphras remind us that some of the most powerful Kingdom work happens in private. It’s not glamorous. It doesn’t get applause. But it is absolutely essential.

If you’ve ever prayed for your church behind the scenes, interceded for someone in need, or contended for your children through tears—you’re in good company. Epaphras would understand.

You don’t have to be seen by people to be significant to God. Heaven moves when the saints pray. And every whispered prayer matters.

Today, be encouraged. Keep wrestling. Keep praying. You might be living in the fine print, but your faith is building the bold headline of someone else’s breakthrough.
