“For God loved the world in this way: He gave his one and only Son, so that everyone who believes in him will not perish but have eternal life. For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world but to save the world through him.”
John 3:16-17
Prayer:
Father, thank you that it is your desire that all people be saved and come to the knowledge of the truth (1 Timothy 2:4). I lift up (name of person you are praying for who is lost/not saved) to you and ask that you draw them to you. Lord, open their eyes so they may turn from darkness to light and be released from the power of the enemy. God, where the enemy has them captive to his lies, set them free. Help them understand the truth about you. Soften their heart and make them aware of your presence. Father, work in their life in such a way that leads them to you. Open their eyes so they see your glory through your creations. Make your light shine in their darkness. Put other believers in their life who will pray for them, share their story with them, and show the love of Christ to them. Thank you that nothing is too difficult for you. Your power is unlimited and you came to set the captives free. Lord, halt the plans of the enemy and demolish the schemes of the enemy in their life. I’m asking for a miraculous intervention of your Spirit to draw them to yourself so they are compelled to receive the incredible gift of salvation. Remove any confusion and doubt so they can understand the Gospel and their desperate need for salvation. Father, help me to continue to pray in faith for them and not to give up. Give me faith to believe that you hear my prayer and are using my prayers to lead them to you. In Jesus’ name, amen.
